Bielema has more skins as a HC already than Mullen ever will

I fricking love this hire the more I think about it. We are going to mudhole Arky the next few years.

Al, we made at least an inquiry to Gruden I'm pretty sure.
Gundy was seriously in the mix as a back up to Peterson and Patterson, and it appears, Bielema.
None of the others you listed were seriously considered, I don't believe. Those names were brought up just as message board fodder.
Miles never was a serious option, and you know that.
I figure the order was:
1. Gruden
1a. Petersen
2. Patterson
3. Bielema
4. Gundy
So, I figure we dropped to 4th on our list.
I understand we damn near had Petersen, UofA lawyers were drawing up the papers and Petersen slept on it and decided to stay where his family was comfortable (one report I heard).
