One of the great coincidences of Arkansas football in the post-Bobby Petrino epoch is the tale of Bret Bielema and Sam Pittman.
Bielema picked Arkansas up out of the mud in the aftermath of Petrino’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent void of a season that was John L. Smith’s. Pittman, Arkansas’ current head coach, did the same after Chad Morris made the Razorbacks a laughingstock in the sport for the second time in less than a decade.
The irony, however, will likely take weeks to become clear if Arkansas media personality, and former Razorbacks defender, David Bazzel’s remark holds true.
