Bert got Paid

Arkansas will pay Bret Bielema an $11.8 million buyout, not the $5.9M previously reported, per @mark_schlabach. Makes total cost of Bielema to Arkansas over five seasons to $30.5 million. Bielema's buyout is subject to reduction with new coaching jobs.

Bert better get a new job fast. He might not survive sitting around eating all day with that kind of money coming in

Surely you don't pay a man $12M to go away without a strong backup plan already in place, right?

I think a lot of the fans in the SEC thought it was a horrible hire but damn. They need to get a guy like Leach who can coach up players or or someone like Kiffin who can record. Bert didn't seem like he could do either .

IIRC he actually brought in more 4*s than any other Arkansas coach in the recruiting services era. Just couldn't develop them very well.

You mean anything better than 4 wins? Hope we get lucky.
