Bret, stop posting on this message board. We don't want you.
Actually would be a great head coach for Nebraska. Better than Scott Frost for obvious reasons to almost everyone that understand B1G football.
This said, I doubt Nebraska does this. To their own detriment.
Another good choice would be Matt Campbell.
A good coach should be successful no matter where he coaches, Brett was terrible at Arkansas and I have my doubts that he'd be a GREAT coach at Nebraska. Frost will do fine if he's hired, and I'd take Campbell before Bielema.
Frost certainly understands that to be a top B1G contender, you have to be a very physical outfit to get to the top, it's not like he played on a pushover Nebraska team when he was the QB, he knows physical football quite well.
Well that’d be real difficult for him to be the next head coach when Leach has already been announced.
Was Leach giving more wedding advice when he found out he was the new HC at Nebraska? :Cool:
Any shot that agents of coaches come into husker chat boards and try to campaign for their clients? This is ridiculous? Anyone who believes Bielema would be a good hire either has ties to coach, a Razorback fan, or a complete idiot.
He wasn’t just awful against the SEC @ Arkansas, his non-conference record was awful too. Almost lost to Coastal Carolina, lost to Toledo, Big 12 owned him, and so on
Speaking as a 14 year resident of Madison, Bielema would be a disaster. He has off field issues. I will leave it at that.
I've said the same thing. Bielema is a B1G coach and won big while in the B1G at Wisconsin.
He tried the SEC and was a fish out of water. That's a speed/athletic/ultra talent conference--not Bielema's forte.
Bielema dominated for his 7 years in the B1G and several years before that as an assistant at Iowa and Wisconsin.
He knows the league--he's been amazingly successful in the league (3 Rose Bowl appearances).
Haha, I have heard the same, and seen it firsthand. Nothing like your ole ball coach wandering around Madison hammered late the night before a big game. Maybe he would be a better fit at a school like Tulane where the bars stay open 24/7. He's a friggin big dude, can't imagine how many adult beverages he has to drink to get that drunk.
Bret won under Barry’s system. He left and failed. Gary Anderson won under Barry’s system. He left and failed. Chryst would do the same if he left Wisconsin. Barry is the true brains.

“I think two things,” said Bret Bielema on Mike & Mike. why the SEC over the Big Ten. “First, on the field, without a doubt, defensive line play. In the Big Ten, you always had a couple of guys on each team you had to be concerned with. But in the SEC, not only do you have the four guys who start the game, there’s four guys coming in behind them, and a lot of times there’s another four. There’s maybe 8, 10, 12 players who just control the game up front that’s unlike anything else. I was blown away.
“And then off the field, I always kind of say it’s like every other conference I’ve been in – I played at Iowa, coached at Wisconsin. I coached at Kansas State, part of the Big 12. It’s like every other conference, but everyone’s drinking four Red Bulls before 9 a.m. Everybody is just that much more amped up. You know you’ll have a 70-year-old lady in Monticello who is ready to tell you how to tackle. It’s just overwhelming how much passion there is in our league.”
Though, I think the Big Ten has improved, since Urban Meyer came and Bret Bielema left.
Bielema has a longer list of assistant coaches with Power 5 experience over Scott Frost. It will be an interesting 45 days ...
LOL Moos just said about Bielema "I don't know anything about him"
You said besides him losing badly to real good teams and his hot temper, you were okay with Bo Pellini.
Why not bring back Tim Beck? He went on to being one of the OCs in the playoff era.
Auburn had Malzahn and Chizik together before Malzahn left. Then Auburn brought him back after firing Chizik and theyre doing fine.

At a presser in December, 1998, when University of Iowa AD Bob Bowlsby was talking about Iowa's job search to replace Hayden Fry, he was asked if Kirk Ferentz (former UI assistant) might be a candidate. Bowlsby answered, "I don't know anything about him".
2 weeks later Bowlsby was announcing Ferentz as his new HeadCoach.
Moos is a straight shooter and praised about 5-6 other coaches that were mentioned. He's not hiring Bielema.
If they hire Bret I may have to find a different team to follow.
Stop me if you have heard this before, he is a giant big fatass.

I remember when Bret coached in Lincoln. Oh wait, Bret never coached in Lincoln and Bob Bowlsby's comment had nothing to do with Bill Moos comment today.
Bret Bielema isn't coming back to Big Ten by way of Lincoln.
Lol
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son.
Fat, drunk and stupid is not what Nebraska needs, son.
I interpreted this remark to mean he was not a candidate
cid, just like your reputation on the Iowa boards, the point flew right over your head and then you reply in a rambling way few can understand.
Frydaze, I think we can agree to disagree, as we typically do when it comes to College Football.
Bill Moos isn't Bob Bowlsby and the situation at Nebraska and Iowa are apples and oranges.
I don't believe you will find Bret Bielema on the six named list in Bill's pocket. It isn't in the desk drawer today.
