I wonder where Gus is going.

Not sure, but I'm certain it will be by bus. 

One i will be watching is Bielema at Illinois.  A terrible HC.  People have argued with me about his "success" at Wisconsin.  My Reply

Wisconsin is Barry Alverez's program. has been for 30 years

In 14 years as HC at Wisconsin Alvarez averaged 9 wins a year and that is when they only averaged 1 games a year. 9-4 in Bowl games. Then retired as HC to be the AD
He promoted Bielema when he retired and in 7 years as HC Bielema averaged 9 wins a year and they averaged 13 games a season.  Bielema was 2-5 in Bowl Games.  When Bielema left to go to Ark, Alvarez came down from the AD chair and coached the Rose Bowl game .
After Bielema left Alvarez hired Gary Anderson as HC, he averaged 9 1/2 wins in 2 years before leaving for Oregon st ( the reason he gave for leaving for a down grade in job was he couldnt recruit the kind of athletes because of academics at Wisc, everyone knew it was BS, he just couldnt stand having to do things the Alvarez way. Alvarez was still in control of the program)  When Anderson Left,  Alvarez came down and coached the Bowl game.
When Anderson left, Alvarez hired Paul Chryst as HC . Chryst was a asst under Alvarez and Bielema.  Chryst in 6 years has averaged 9 wins a year and 4-1 in Bowl Games ( this years bowl was cancelled)


So, in 14 years Alvarez 9 wins a year
in 7 Bielema 9 wins a year
in 2 years Anderson 9 wins a year
in 6 years Chryst 9 wins a year

so in 29 years Wisconsin has averaged 9 wins a year, one constant. Barry Alvarez. They still play the same offense and defense that he brought with him from Notre Dame, his defense and Holtz offense.


Since leaving Wisconsin Bielema went 11-29 at Ark in the SEC
Anderson went 7-23, 3-18 at Oregon St and the Pac 12 then resigned and told them to keep the rest of the contract ( $12 million dollars) then went 7-9 in 1 1/2 yrs back at Utah St as HC (before getting fired this year after 3 games)where he was before he was hired by Alvarez at Wisconsin. I really think he had some kind of issues at Oregon St that made him quit and leave that money on the table and it followed him back to Utah st and they had to eventually fire him.


All this to say, Bielema is a slug and probably a good position coach, but as I pointed out, Wisconsin is Wisconsin whomever the HC is also long as Alvarez is there. He is 74 , so that may be coming to a end, but Chryst is a guy who loves it there, spent 2 stints as asst there totaling 7 years and now 6 as a HC and he is only 55. So i think he was Barry's last hire.


Bielema got trapped by a stripper and married her ( I love strippers, but not the marrying kind). Now has a kid by her.  I was told he couldnt concentrate on his job at Ark as he was staling her or had people stalking her because he knew what he married.

Now this clown has Illinois who is like Vanderbilt in that it wants to be a IVY league school but has facilities that are 20 years behind everyone else.  They want the elite academic athlete like Stanford, but those guys in that area like that got to Northwestern. If they are good enough and have the academics in that area, they go to Notre Dame.

Bielema is very well know that he hates recruiting and wont fight for a recruit. Remember when he cried at Wisconsin after Urban Meyer came to Ohio State and flipped a kid that was committed to Wisconsin. He cried that we dont do that in the Big 10, once you are committed to a school, everyone doesnt recruit him anymore. Meyer laughed and said, aint nobody signed on the line yet.

At Ark had some of the worst classes in the SEC. 

In short, Bret Bielema sux


sorry i am so long winded, I just like to put in every point i think relevant and I have argued many a day with people about this slug Bielema.

lol



 

oh and Before Alvarez took  at Wisconsin the previous 4 years they were 9-36.   Alvarez Changed the culture
 

SATIRE
BRET AND JEN BIELEMA ARRESTED IN OXFORD FOLLOWING GAME

OXFORD, Ms — Arkansas head coach Bret Bielema and his wife Jen were arrested Saturday night following the Razorback’s game against Ole Miss for disorderly conduct and indecent exposure.

According to Oxford police, the Bielemas were apprehended naked in the bushes in the Southeast area of the grove behind Ventress Hall. Police began to investigate after 911 calls started flooding in due to a sighting of quarterback Brandon Allen in the area.

“We were searching the area for Brandon Allen, when we heard a woman scream ‘Take it in for a 2 point conversion!’,” Oxford police officer Cooper Williams tells us. “We walked up to find coach Bielema on top of wife engaged in intercourse. Both were completely naked except for the coach’s windbreaker jacket.”

The police report indicates Bielema initially agreed to go quietly before breaking off and streaking all the way back to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium with only his lucky windbreaker where police were able to tackle him just inside the end zone. The Brandon Allen sighting turned out to be false when the quarterback was also found inside the stadium, still throwing the ball to Drew Morgan.

In his post-game interview, Bielema alluded to his intentions.

“I thought we had a great game, now I am just looking forward to hopping on my wife,” Bielema said. He quickly corrected the statement saying he meant a plane, but clearly Bielema did not wait for the plane.

The University of Arkansas confirms the Bielemas were held overnight and released this morning without charges on the agreement that coach Bielema will coach the Rebels for four years following his usefulness at Arkansas. This is the second time the Oxford police have made such an agreement with a Razorback coach. The first coming after former coach Houston Nutt was found bound naked to a tree with a pair of golden handcuffs on campus.
