Nebraska has been rumored to be after Bielema, although Bielema like all coaches, says how much he is happy at Arkasas.

IF Bielema goes, the vacancy at Arkasas can be very tempting to Butch.

Butch played football at Arkansas, and when Butch was at UNC, Arkansas was wanting Butch, but UNC gave Butch a bump to prevent that. However, Butch goes back and speaks to the Booster Clubs, etc., and has spoken of how the timing was always wrong.

Butch loves Miami. But Butch can be had at Arkansas as well.

UM needs to quit farting around, pull the trigger on Golden, and get Butch.

Butch is a turn-key, instant program changer.

I just don't think BB would leave. Has a decent team who could make some noise next season in the west.
 
He left the same exact type of program to go to the SEC. Nebraska overvalues its program. That's not the place it used to be when Dr. Tom was there. They can't get those prop 48 scumbag like Phillips and Riley Washington in there anymore.

Recruiting to that place in January is like trying to convince kids to go to Antarctica. There's no local recruiting base. That's a tough gig, and I doubt they'll wind up with a big time hire.
 
Yeah, amazing at the coaches who love their university, and are suddenly gone.

Once another school offers/hits that magic number - and everyone has a magic number - that love suddenly evaporates.

Nebraska fans will tell you that. A lot were shocked to see Bo go. However; I would definitely agree that they overvalue their program.
 
Butch was a free agent when Arkansas had an opening.

They hired Bielema.

Why would the double back to a guy they seemingly had zero interest in the first time around?
 
Never going to happen, Bielema is not leaving Arkansas. It's the season for rumors, that's it.
