Report: Arkansas Will Hire Wisconsin's Bret Bielema To Be Its Football Coach

Yahoo's Pat Forde was first with the news a few minutes ago that Bret Bielema will be leaving Wisconsin for Arkansas. This follows a bizarre day in which Mike Gundy's and Chris Petersen's names kept getting bounced around. Bielema had gone 68-24 in Madison and coached the Badgers to three consecutive Rose Bowls, including the one coming up on Jan. 1. The Rose Bowl used to be the be-all, end-all for Big Ten coaches. Now it's just another category to highlight on an SEC job application.
