SEC Largesse

Les Miles thinks this has something to do with offensive linemen and their broad posteriors.

Totally the same thing.

Hoke has gone 12-4 in B1G in first two years. RR went 3-13.

i mean, you could say “totally the same thing” to that too. aren’t only two of those wins over ranked teams? and those ranked teams were nebraska and VT, which, lets be honest…psshaw.

Yeah except now he’s in the SEC where he has to perennially compete with Kevin Sumlin at A&M and Ole Miss with their freakish incoming freshman class. They also play at Florida and South Carolina at home in ’13, in addition to at LSU and at Alabama. Piss poor game management is the last thing I’d want when running through that gauntlet.

there isn’t a single Arkansas fan that expects the team to do amazing things this year considering the talent that left, the players that are still here and the upcoming schedule. ole piss and their flash in the pan recruiting class is the least of this teams concerns.

Just wait until he’s got his players in place man, he’s recruiting like crazy, its gonna be sick.

Totally the same thing.

Hoke has gone 12-4 in B1G in first two years. RR went 3-13.

As far as recruiting goes, he got Russell Wilson, but he also got Danny O’Brien.

Lotta Badgers in the NFL these days is all I’m saying…I want him to fail same as you, just tempering expectations, they should reasonably be expected to win 7+ games a season which isn’t going down in flames

in CFB you can out-talent your opposition by so much that they should be fine, just wouldn’t expect them to knock off Bama or LSU too often

Not to mention, the Badgers rarely “out-talent”-ed other teams, they “out-bigged” them with a wall of corn-fed lineman. As far as recruiting goes, he got Russell Wilson, but he also got Danny O’Brien.

I wish Beilma all the success that RR had at Michigan.

Is there another type?

Coming off a blackout bender I assume?

-zapp beilema

Wisconsin fans will have the last laugh when Bielema inevitably and repeatedly sits on two timeouts while refusing any attempt to score at the end of either half. Enjoy 7th place, bitch.

I don’t expect him to flame out there…guy could always recruit, just wasn’t so good about game coaching but in CFB you can out-talent your opposition by so much that they should be fine, just wouldn’t expect them to knock off Bama or LSU too often

Were spending like $1m on Hope and $1.4m on assistants.

Going solely off their on-field performance, playcalling and overall field discipline, Burke was overpaying by about 2.4M. Thank god that era is over

Wisconsin spent less than 60 percent what Ohio State did on assistants in 2012.

60% wins too…tells me you get what you pay for.

He’s accomplished two things: 1) thanking his his new bosses publicly and 2) reminded the donors to keep their checkbooks open to retain top assistants.

The dig seems tertiary.

I think this is the correct interpretation.

/bitter husker fan

Unless Wisconsin changed their scale once Biels left, they may be behind Purdue now. AD finally figured out you had to put some money in the program when he brought Hazell on board

Possible. Purdue spending $2m on Hazell, $2.1m on assistants. Were spending like $1m on Hope and $1.4m on assistants. Now creeping toward average in B1G.
