Not in bowl games so I guess par for the course at UofA.

Didn't he beat Arky in a bowl game a few years back?

I say Gus.


Bielema will be skinned alive in recruiting. That whole whiny complaint about the "gentleman's agreement" in the Big 10 about not recruiting a player after he's committed? Yeah, he's gonna be burned at the stake on the recruiting trails. Just being honest.

BB is better. Proven winner, multiple BCS bowls

GM won off Freeze recruits this year, and is very average without a QB named Cam

if there are any AU fans in here or just fans in the know, how is malzahn as a recruiter? do you think he can come in and recruit against bama and LSU off the bat?

this isn't meant as demeaning, i know chiz had some great classes at AU.

There's so much talent in W Ga and E AL, anyone can bring in 5-15 ranked classes at AU. It's just how hard you try.

Yea he'll be able to, especially if he keeps BVG and Trooper. I just don't like the hire.

Gus has way more upside. (And more downside.) However, I'd take Gus. At least recruits want to play in his offense.

Too bad you have to compete with Bama and Georgia for those recruits.

Depends on the staff each one hires.

Gus now. That may change depending on Bielema's staff.

Arkansas is grabbing a coach that has no experience recruiting in the south and they will be changing offensive styles. It's risky but he can coach we know that.

Gus, and it isn't close, although I thought AU would have done a little better.
