Also, this...

No respectable program should ever do that, regardless of coaching changes.


Is a point I've been making all along. The new coach/bad players/distractions/etc. excuses are fine, but only if you are ok with being thought of like Vandy or Kansas. No self-respecting football program in this era of parity should EVER go 0-fer in conference play. Everyone but Tyler Wilson quit in 2012, they had fricking John L. Smith at the helm and one of the most obvious distractions in recent memory and STILL won two conference games.

This is why I don't put any stock in the "Bielema is building argument". He still went 0-8 at a program that at the very least fancies itself as respectable SEC program. There is simply never an excuse for that and it reflects unbelievably poorly on him.

They beat two 0-8 teams. 2013 Arkansas didn't play a team with worse than a 3-5 conference record.

Lets not try and act like the schedules were the exact same.

Not to mention the amount of talent that left the program after the '12 season.
