genro seems to like it a lot

I think it was a pretty good hire. Have to wait and see. Hopefully we can get Tenpenny to stay home.

Not a bad hire, but Hilarious that they we're so sure it was gonna be Petersen, Patterson, or Gundy that they trolled themselves

I think it was a great hire too. I can't believe he left Wisconsin.

The people laughing about this will never admit they were wrong, but you got a damn good coach.

Yeah, he will need to get a staff that's familiar with the SEC, that's for sure.

Wisky had a down year this year, but year in and year out, they are one of the top teams in the nation.

Congrats Pigs.

He inherited a 10 win team and kept them stagnant in the worst big 10 league in the history of the big 10, and he can't recruit. No ties to the south or Texas either. He also will have to build the offense from the ground up, which seems impossible due to his recruiting abilities...
He might be a good coach but this just seems like a terrible fit.

You ain't kidding. The West i(entire SEC for that matter) is turning into a level of football and coaches between the
NFL and the rest of CFB.

Yes I do. Great hire. You just stole one of the upper-level coaches in the country away from Wisconsin. Extremely impressive.

Congrats Pigs.

Jeff Long had everyone fooled with this hire...and I mean everyone. I really didn't know that much about him before today but he appears to be a really good hire. Thanks for all the positive input.

I'm convinced most of the reason he's been trashed is just anti-Arkansas shite. 3 days ago, if you'd asked anyone if Bielema was a good coach, they'd say hell yeah.

I was very surprised, hadn't heard his name mentioned at all until yesterday morning and then didn't believe it.

I would agree that he has great credentials and is a good hire.

I am not sure if the hire was great but the claims that Bielema can't recruit and the assumption that a defensive coach by trade will install the Wisconsin style offense that he inherited @ Arkansas is unfounded.
