Something about Fayetteville and the hero worship of all things Razorback that really fricks things up.

Long has to get some blame here. He has owned this hire when we seemed good

The "businessman" needs to take a pay hit or something. He is probably too busy pimping himself out to ESPN for CFP committee interviews to focus on his job here if we are being honest

I wonder if Bert realizes how abruptly his honeymoon just came to an end.


Which, losses aside, might be a good thing.

I think 2013, 0-8 and 13 straight really humbled the shite out of him after he hit campus in a blaze of swagger and shite talk, but it appears he got cocky again after the wins against LSU, OM and Texas. He was riding high after the Texas Bowl and squeezing every bit he could out of it, and he lost it just as fast as he got it with Toledo and Tech. Unbelievable. I've never seen a head coach go from penthouse to shitehouse with a fan base so quickly.

Maybe he'll shut his mouth now, but I'm sure we'll pull of some crazy win against State or Auburn and he'll go right back to talking shite like an idiot again despite an horrendous conference record.

And at year's end?


As illustrated by ArkansasFight.com, the contract's buyout terms are extremely friendly to Bielema, who would be owed $15.4 million if he's fired any time before 2018 and a minimum of $7.9 million if if he's fired any time before 2020. But Bielema would only owe Arkansas $4 million if he leaves in 2015 and would owe progressively less over the course of the contract down to only $500,000 on Jan. 1, 2019.

We need to get dirt on Ferentz. Get him fired, those Hawkeyes fans are stupid enough to still want Bielema

Long should be canned simply for how horrendously stupid that contract is.

It's literally a lose-lose situation for us. If he's bad, he's too expensive to fire, and if he's good, his buyout is low to where he can go somewhere else relatively cheap. Of course, the latter is now playing out. My only hope is that Iowa gets rid of Ferentz and comes calling due to the relatively low buyout.

Is Bert's agent a genius, or is Long a fricking moron

Sadly, I didn't think that horrible contract would matter.

So he gets drunk on Dickson? Anyone know a cop who will arrest him for public intoxication and maybe trump up some resisting arrest,etc. use the Petrino clause to fire him.

Matter of fact I probably do. I saw my buddy on endzone patrol during the 2nd half. He didn't look too happy.

True. We are a creative bunch when times get tough. We shouldn't sell ourselves short and say we can't get him fired without at least doing a preliminary analysis

We don't have any depth.

Counting the players we lost to the NFL we are down 7 playmakers.

Bert will be around for at least 2 more years. Buyout is too much.

Buckle up and DWI

Stubhub will be my friend. I'd rather be on a beach watching good teams play on TV.

The product on the field sucks...and has for years. The product on the court sucks...and will be horrible next year.

I think.....I may be opening up a donor spot. I suspect it'll stay empty.
