Nebraska seems like a tougher sale than MSU. The expectations are astronomical, the recruiting is as tough and location wise...:shrug:

I'm sad Arky won because I was 100% sure Sumlin would be fired today if he lost and this thread would get good

Sumlin deserves to be fired for letting Bert and the Pigs take him to OT

Of course, Arkansas didn't fire him for loving around, they fired him for putting his side piece on the payroll.

Bielema’s buyout might be way less than everyone originally thought I guess?

I have mixed feelings here since I want him to be fired and shamed, but I don't want another team looking for a coach this offseason.

The problem with firing bert is then Jeff Long, the kind of moron that would hire bert in the first place, is going to be hiring again. Fire Jeff Long.

I'm having a hard time imagining anything more pathetic than trotting out 'mah inside sources' to prop up whatever fevered pipe dream you can vomit up all over a message board

That aside, I grew up next to Jen Bielema's grandma and she said that bert has a small penis and it smells of prawns

I like how Clanga loses a great coach, somewhat surprisingly, and then replaces him within days with an interesting replacement.

Meanwhile, those chucklefucks up in Fayetteville have known for at least months that bert had to go and they have lined up *crickets*

The money men are still holding out hope that Georgia beats Auburn, the fans turn on Gus again, and then we call him and say "Come home, Gus."

It's almost as if firing your AD before firing your coach was a bad idea.

Probably was, but what else are you going to do? I assume Long refused to fire bert and that's what got him canned.

Pretty much all the good mid major names are still out there so I feel like Arkansas can wait a week on Gus and probably be fine. Like worst case Blake Anderson is right there and the track record of Arkansas St. coaches is pretty dang good.

Blake Anderson could be the next coming of Saban and Arkansas can't hire him.

I don't think Gus will go to Arkansas, but the concept isnt ridiculous. The dude is from here. Arkansas isn't a dream job for most but Razorbacks are the only game in town for people that live in this state, much less grew up here.
