Bert has a two season bowl winning streak which embarrassingly is a school record.

Logistics just aren't on our side in football recruiting. Bert is doing a solid job in making the program competitive and seems to be a pretty good influence on these players in their personal lives.


It's the basketball program that is underperforming

Arkansas or Auburn? You're confusing me.

You got a downgrade at DC. Your QB is a mess. Your coach can't adjust his play calling to his personnel. Your best defensive player is injury prone. You have an excruciatingly tough schedule.

And you want to troll Arkansas? Who finished higher in the SEC West last year?

AU24 is confusing as hell. He has the AUdacity to throw up threads questioning a program that's steadily headed in a positive direction while his own team has been in a steady decline. Is the dude a glutton for punishment?

Now the Rant, especially Arky fans are quick to point out that Gus recruited that entire roster anyway and that was the reason for his success in 2013, not his coaching.


Well that was the Auburn talking point at the time of his hire for why he was such a great hire.

and the auburn response here...

No response because it was an incorrect statement.

I truly believe Bielema had no idea how tough the SEC was until his first two years here. Coupled with a decimated roster and various arrests, it took him three solid seasons to build a decent team. No team should be satisfied with 7 or 8 wins as a peak but the progress that he is showing is encouraging.

yea no, that was 100% one of the reasons auburn fans gave for why gus would have success

then when myself and other fans would point out that chizik should be given some credit, aubies deflcted/denied and said it was all gus.

I'll see if I can't find my thread saying chizik should be given credit...

True and that is why I gained some respect for him. It would have been easy to quit after starting 1-3. It looked like we might win 2 or 3 games total. I'm not saying it excuses the early seasons blunders but not many thought we would reach a bowl after that start.

What? You think the only Arkansas fans appear on this website. I'm speaking in terms of all the fans. There was a large amount that was ready to start thinking about who the next coach was going to be in a few years after we starting 1-3.

We are talking about 2015, not 2013. Try to keep up.
There were a lot of threads about firing him after the OOC losses last year.

I doubt many were predicting a loss to Toledo.

Yes. Exactly what I was saying.
He righted the ship and closed the season out strongly though. Glad somebody can have a rational conversation here.
