re: Making the Case for Bret Bielema

this is a solid argument for Bielema... the guy is a good coach who was put in a very difficult situation.

I agree, and think BB will have Arky playing competitively within 2-3 years.

2015 is the make or break point for BB... if he's not showing significant improvement across the board after 3 years, it just wasn't a good fit... sometimes good coaches and good programs don't mesh.

Upvoted. Thanks.
I chose to leave out the fact that Arkansas was undergoing an offensive transition. Auburn and Arkansas were both coming off terrible seasons, but Auburn rebounded quickly because the circumstances of their demise and the transition are incomparable to what happened to Arkansas. Just imagine what Arkansas might have been like if the players were already personally familiar with Bret and his system and had bought into his process and principles before last season began. It's not all about talent.
