Well it's not like he is in pressure packed position. If he can win 6 games each year he could stick forever.

No mention of his endeavors at Arkansas, lol.

He couldn't cut it in the SEC and so at a school with no expectations, he should do fine.

Holy shite!! I thought he had lost a little weight, quit drinking, and gotten healthier. Nope, he looks fatter than ever and his face is redder than a baboon’s arse.

He was doing decent at Arkansas until Pittman left. He was done after that.

And he was drunk all the time.

Funny, no mention of his stint at Arkansas in that little bio...
Exactly what I thought. It was pretty obvious from how they (Wisconsin) didn't skip a beat after he left that it wasn't him that was running that show.

Also no mention of how one of his Rose Bowl trips was only because of postseason sanctions to teams that finished above Wisconsin that year. Pretty sure they made the Rose Bowl with like a 9-4 record or something similar.

As I said in another thread, if he can stay sober than he should probably do fairly well there. His attempt to turn Arkansas into Wisconsin South was ill advised and his habit of hiring Midwest coaches with no ties to the area did not help matters.

I do suspect that Drinkypoo will beat him like a drum on the recruiting trail. Drinkwitz has shown that he can be an excellent game day coach... Bert not so much. That will sway a few players your way.

You mean to tell me the dude that "couldn't find a scholarship" for Isaiah Simmons doesn't know how to recruit?

His wife saw “Champaign” and was immediately sold. Here’s to getting all the champagne to get her through more mediocrity.

They should have hired Lance Leipold instead.
