Calling out other football programs with vague, cryptic innuendo, without presenting evidence to support it, is bad enough. Then racing to cover it up with a bogus, almost comical explanation is even worse. And truly an embarrassment to all involved.
Look, I don’t know Bret Bielema personally, but I’ve always kind of liked what I’ve seen of him. He seems to be as regular guy as they come. He speaks his mind; he doesn’t back down. He is a tough guy and his teams play tough-guy football. He is colorful, fun, good for college football. I also think he is a terrific coach.
