Gottlieb: Pelfrey out at Arkansas?

[Sam]

When I went to Little Rock last April the two guys I listened to briefly on Sports Talk radar talked about Anderson and Arkansas like it was his dream job. Really weird, made it seem like he loved it when he was there under Nolan.

Could OU outbid Ark and mizz for Anderson?

Castiglione probably wouldn't go after Anderson because of his relationship with Mizzou.

Everybody from Arkansas thinks that is everybody's dream job. Grain of salt.

Could OU outbid Ark and mizz for Anderson?

OU pays unCapelable like $1.5 and Mizzou pays Anderson about the same...I think Pelphrey got/gets paid $800K...So could OU outbid them? yes. Will they? no.

Explain. Do you mean just the way Nolan was treated?

For the most part, yes. Richardson was like a father to him, and the two are still extremely close. Richardson obviously didn't feel like he was welcome, and I doubt Anderson would completely dismiss that point of view, even if he didn't personally have those types of experiences.

Anderson is from Alabama and turned Alabama down a year or two ago. His wife is from Oklahoma. The only ties he has to Arkansas - the school or the state - is from his time there as Richardson's assistant, and that whole thing ended very ugly. Not gonna happen.

Figured, the two guys I heard seemed like the Arkie version of Jim and Al so I didn't take either that seriously. They talked like it was a lock that Mike would be their next coach.

Mizzou thru history has had problems in their administration. I think Anderson may well leave...I don't think he likes Mizzou anyway.

I don't really think this is at all supported by reality.

Mizzou's academic administration hasn't always been athlete-friendly, but the athletic department itself is fine. In the past, the academic types did cause problems for MU athletics (really destroyed Mizzou football for about two decades by refusing to take players who met NCAA and Big 8 eligibility, but not their own inflated standards... those players went to NU, OU, ksu, etc. and beat Mizzou routinely in the 80s/90s). But that isn't an issue anymore. Anyone who meets the Big 12/NCAA minimum can get in at Mizzou.

I can't think of any other way the administration has or could negatively impact Anderson's program here.
