Question: Has Bielema ever acknowledged that he is widely known by his nickname "Bert"?

The hogs can't seem to decide but look to be giving Barry Alvarez a nickname.

So hogs, is Bert his nickname or not?

I too am guilty of calling him Bert. In my mind, the fella's name is indeed Bert.

Frick this place for this and a litany of tRant terminology that gets brought out IRL.

Come on man, most razorback fans stay away from Hogville. Why would you even want to go there?

Nope, he don't care, he's in Hog Heaven. He is more stable than Rant!

Just found this on google. I'm in a boring conference call at work and was wondering about the origins of "Bert".

To answer the OP a member of the Arkansas media asked him if he was aware that his detractors call him "Bert" after either the Toledo or Rutgers loss. I don't have the press conference bookmarked unfortunately. He said he had heard it a few times when he was still at Wisconsin but nobody was man enough to call him that to his face. So yes. Bert is aware he's Bert.
