Was Bielema That Bad?

It's hard for me to believe that Bielema left Arkansas in such bad condition that they have only won one game. Looking back at the beginning of this year, I don't feel like the team was that well prepared to start this season. It seems they were fighting a lot of indecision couldn't make their minds up about who the quarterback was going to be and I don't really think that has been settled yet. In spite of what "Put the Hammer Down" Morris says, the team still doesn't look like they have made a lot of progress. Speaking of that, how long does it look like we are going to wait for a winner?

Going 4-8 (1-7) in year 5 definitely shows that Bert had laid a solid foundation and was absolutely heading in the right direction.

the coaches should shoulder the blame for several of those losses. our talent isn't completely nonexistent. we weren't ready for prime time when the season started.

Bielema failed at building a culture within our program. Morris is heavily focused on that.

We haven’t made progress? Holy shite, that is possibly one of the dumbest statements made on this board.

It took 5 games for Chad to run a play from under center after inheriting a roster that ran plays primarily from under center.

You can make the argument that the roster isn't so bad that it should be losing to Colorado State and blown our by North Texas State.

You can't make the argument that the SEC schedule thus far has gone anyway but the recent norm for the program.

The team has made progress in the things Chad is requiring them to do on the field. They have progressed enough to where the CSU and NTSU games will prevent them from making the Birmingham bowl.
