Rumor is that Bielema will be named new HC at Illinois. I think it’s a great hire for them.
Bret Bielema back to the B1G?
- Thread starter ElMeson
- Start date
He was outstanding in the Big Ten.
Terrible at Arkansas.
Got a trophy wife.

His last 3 Wisky teams scored close to 200 points on IU. Would love to start paying his fat ass back. If he does take over there, hope we can get that Illini game Barry took off the schedule this yr back on next year. That would be fun. Barry didn't like it when he left. Hope he "rewards" him with some tough cross overs since Warren has ceded all football matters to DON Corleone Alvarez.

Wish I could "like" this twice.
He excelled at Wisconsin but absolutely bombed at Arkansas. I wouldn't be too happy as having him be our coach. Although it needs to be said that winning games in the SEC West is a far tougher job than winning games in the laughable Big Ten West.
Tom Allen would have Indiana in first place in that division this year and definitely next year with the talent returning.

I want us to make that shithead cry like a baby year after year after year
Let's get some thoughts from NoVertical on this matter...Unless he's still on his bender celebration (which would be day 11) post Wisconsin??
Great hire for Illini opponents.

Sarcasm noted on his movie star looks. That dude is UGLY, whew!
She needs some meat on her bones. Almost looks like a skeletonI’ll let the pictures do the talking:
He did real well at Wisc. following Barry's lead but when he tried to take the same plan to Ark. he failed miserably. If he is stuck on the Wisc model I doubt he will succeeed at Ill. But ...
Time will tell.

I doubt that her leopard print bikini, her flirty mini skirts, or her cowboy hat will last very long in Illinois.
It has. Who was the meltdown wife. Drunk, yelling, thrown out of a game? Those posts were fun, tho sorry she has problems
I missed earlier that Lovie was let go. After 5 yrs, he never really got over the hump and that's about the timeline of a HC evaluation. Note: Allen has turned it around in 3, with year 4 being Top 10! Coaches and leadership matter.
I totally agree Bielema would not be a great hire. Therefore, go for it Illinois. We like recruiting your best HS players. If it were me, I would be looking hard at the University of Buffalo coach.
Oh, she's gonna really love Champaign.....
Not sure how to interpret this ? Lol. Champaign is a great college town that is practically unrecognizable compared to even just 10 years ago. It consistently gets ranked as one of the best college towns in the US.
I've been to Champaign. I've driven through Champaign. I've watched a football game at Memorial stadium.
Sir, Champaign is not a great college town.
It is flat. It is boring. There is no nightlife.
My advice is to get out out of town once in a while and visit any other Big Ten university. Illinois - with competition from Purdue - is the least interesting campus in the Big Ten.
I agree with DANC, Champaign is not a dump or horrible town, but certainly NOT one of the best college towns in the country!
Well, I guess your Hoosier opinion is what it is, haha. I live in Chicago, and I’ve been to Bloomington. It’s a fine college town, though outside of the campus it seems VERY small. To say Champaign has no nightlife says more about how fun you are than Champaign, haha.
I’ll let the pictures do the talking:
It is apparently bigger than I thought it would be, but she sure seems proud of it.
My initial thought concerning Bielema coming to Illinois is retread. Time will tell if it's a good or bad hire. Let's go get all the top HS players out of Illinois.
This hire is Kelvin Sampson like for me. Solid resume but makes you feel like you have done something wrong.
Fair answer, but we’ve tried the mid-major route, and it’s a high ceiling/low floor endeavor. As I’m SURE you guys can appreciate, we’re just aiming to not be a joke. I think this hire has a good chance of achieving that.
Beliema's run at Wisc was just continuing the success they already had. He failed to build Ark and I'm not sure why UI thinks he will do it there. I would not be excited about this hire.
Yeah, great hire. He left Whiskey were he won because of the talent he inherited and went to Arkansas where he proved he can't build a program. Can't forget the 83 he laid on us.
