He's probably not top 10. 10-22 in the SEC with only 1 winning season. 25-26 overall.


You know it's silly to hold year 1 and 2 against him. He took a talentless program built for skinny fast players and turned it into a 1970s Big Ten program.

His last 2 years he is 15-11 (8-8). That's pretty meh, but it's certainly not 10-22.

Bert, Sumlin, Malzahn and Butch are all the definition of meh, and their records the last 3 years agree with that.

Bert : 22-18 (10-14)
Sumlin : 24-15 (11-13)
Malzahn : 23-16 (11-13)
Jones : 25-14 (12-12)

That talentless program was winning 10 games a year before the let their coach go. Just because he didn't have guys for his system, he could have modified it to win (at least .500) until he could build it how he wanted to.

McElwain doesn't deserve to be in that group yet.

Malzahn is an enigma.

Jones would look even worse if he wasn't in the east.

The 2013 team was never going to be good, but it should never have gone 3-9. That team displayed staples of shitty Bert coaching, and they underachieved like all of his teams have. The 2014 team had the best defense Arkansas has had in a long time. That team had four NFL players on defense (3 of them being "talentless" Petrino recruits). They ranked in the top 10 nationally. The offense had multiple NFL players on it too. Bert went 7-6. Seven. And. Six.
