[QUOTE="GilThorpe, post: 1579723, member: 10589"] there was a lot of disappointment with the Beckham hire as he was really choice 4 or 5 after Thomas went after Sumlin , Butch Jones and Boise’s Petersen . And when Campbell didn’t come with , many saw that as a bad omen The only buzz about Lovie was he was at one time a very successful NFL coach . Many were concerned with his lack of college coaching experience and expected him to get great assistants . his initial hires of the OC from Louisville (forget his name ) and Nickerson somewhat alleviated that concern . But we were also a bit concerned about Lovies laid back style working in the college game . Bielema is the best “college” coach we have hired since White & Blackman . Of course there are no guarantees of future success , but we are at least in the best position for success since White was hired [/QUOTE]
