I'm very sure Yahoo is right in saying Arkansas has better facilities than Wisconsin's. Much better. And I don't need to know a thing about Wisconsin's facilities to say that.

Arkansas's facilities are just that good.

I'm sure they are better, just saying Wisconsin is spending a lot of money on upgrades. I'm guessing this came down to $$$ and Arkansas is giving him a bump in salary that Wisconsin can't or won't match.

Which would be a subject for another thread...why wouldn't they? Brett's team just scored 70 on Nebraska and is headed to their third straight Rose Bowl...has that ever been done at Wisconsin? I'm too lazy to look, but I would bet a lot that it's never happened before.

In today's market, changing coaches is fraught with peril. Even hiring an extremely succesfull name coach isn't a guarantee. Just look at Rich Rod at Michigan.

It's only the third time in Big Ten history that a team has gone to three straight Rose Bowls. Ohio State in 72, 73, 74 and 75; Michigan in 76, 77 and 78 were the others.
