It's an odd hire IMO. Lack of regional ties. Completely different system. Not a strong recruiter. Has been outspoken in his displeasure of the ways of the SEC.

The only way this makes sense for him is $$$$$

now our hire is going to be like kissin your sister. seems fun, but you know its not right.


we are done. might as well get on the Charlie Strong train. I am going to update my life's philosopy.

"It's not about winning or being good, it's about trying. As long as you try, you can never hang your head in life."
"I am okay with 5 wins."


"I am fine losing to everyone except kentucky and vandy."

But we're not even trying. That's the saddest part.

He's kicking himself in the face right now.

But who could have seen that coming?

About $2 million more. Arkansas was sitting on a pile of cash that TN didn't have thanks to Hamilton.

Not really true. #1 ARK big donors make our big donors look like bums, FACT. (Walmart,Tyson chicken, Jerry Jones vs gas stations and check cashing) #2 ARK was able to terminate their high payed coaches contract for cause. #3 The main reason our AD is broke is due to the recent FB facility, not to mention the 6 million a year put back into the general scholarship fund. In reality, Dooley's buyout is a drop in the bucket.

I guess ARK cash won out over TN facilities in the end

The leaders division in the Big 10 will now be a joke. OSU rolls.

The only way this offseason gets better for OSU is if we were to hire Brady Hoke!

I pray I do not eat my words, but I believe Bielema would have difficulty recruiting in the SEC.. Especially with them hogs

Yeah I wonder how much whining he is going to do when everyone is calling his recruit commits all the way up to them confirming the fax has arrived. He has the in on the WI big boys so thier OL is gonna be huge. Always wished UT would go up there and poach a guy or 2 for the OL every few yrs.

Solid hire. Out of left field IMO. I wonder if Hart is waiting to see what everyone is doing so he knows what his bar is set at. This needs to be big. This Arky hire IMO blew the Strong hire out of the water. Hart, or the booster/manning committee, need to step it up. Is Auburn really announcing to tomorrow?? For sure or just rumor?

I'm not impressed; The Big 10 is better named the small 10; s**ty confernece...name one team that would be in the top two of either of the SEC divisions this year; Jeff Long wanted someone who could 'recruit Texas'....I DON'T get it. Then again, Jeff Long hired Dave Pornstache to Pitt...that worked out well. Don't think Arky rednecks will like this hire...'he talks funny'; I have lived here too damn long!

Big deal--it's wisconsin. Yea, they've got a solid program, but the Big 10 has been WAY DOWN over the last decade. Ohio State has been the only consistently good team in the conference for many years--and it's on probation. Michigan has been down for several years, wisconsin is somewhere between respectable and good; michigan st. is decent and everybody else is bad.

He is not as good a hire as everyone is making him out to be. He is a solid hire and better than what I thought Arky could bring in. But still has a lot to prove with this move.

Also if you are chiding Hart right now before you have any idea who he is hiring you are a moron. If anything this should show you that hires can come out of nowhere. Hart could pull something out of his hind parts just like Arky did.

this is a dangerous hire for the SEC west I mean come on this guy is not a terrible coach for losing most games by a touchdown... I don't know who we can hire now to save us from this shipwreck.... Strong is no longer viable for me....
