re: Besides USC hiring Spurrier, Bama hiring Saban, and Ark hiring Petrino

Urban Meyer was 39-8 as a head coach when UF hired him. He had also won a BCS bowl, unlike Bielema.

I'll accept that even though Urban had less HC experience and that experience was 2 years in the MAC and 2 years in the MWC as opposed to 7 years in the Big 10. The BCS Bowl win by Meyer is huge, and may be just enough to put his resume on equal footing as Bielema's, although it's arguable.
