Brett Beilima (sp) makes me want to puke. Just heard him on Mike and Mike on the way in to work. Leaving Wisconsin for Arkansas because the Hogs are committed to being a football factory. Talking about making the playoffs with one loss and not winning the conference being a plus and an open checkbook for assistants. Fact is, he doesn't give a chit about the "student" aspect of student-athletes and the SEC is the premier conference for footbawl first, second and last on the priority list. Go greyshirt, oversign and cut your way to the promise land Brett! I hope you fail miserably for abandoning the system that made you anything you f-ing tool with sending an unranked team to the Rose Bowl. Assclown.
(end rant)
Sorry, I did not hear anything in his interview on recruiting, other than the new facilities that are going up. In fact, I thought the whole thing was very interesting. Look, the guy lost coaches b/c he school wouldn't pay them. He wants to go to a school that will allow him to keep a staff in place for an extended period of time. Correct me if I am wrong, but this was a major issue at ND not too long ago.
Next, he wants the ability to get into the playoff system and sees the SEC as the best chance of doing so, considering you don't have to win the conference to get in. He sees 11-1 Wisconsin getting shut out if they don't make the Big10 champ game and Ark having a crack at 11-1 not going to SEC champ game. Do you disagree with that premise? I don't.
Sorry, I just fail to see where this interview makes BB look bad. In fact, I think the issues he mentions are some of the reasons ND failed to hire a coach after Holtz until the admin decided they would support football.
