According to Pat Forde of Yahoo Sports. A good hire for them. They'll have a SEC system of great run game and defense.

Wow.
On the other hand, if he was complaining about Big Ten recruiting, he'll have trouble in the SEC.

Is this real? Arkansas has landed about 10 different head coaches lately...

Why do you say that?
Exchanging players from around Wisconsin to players from around Ark/Tex makes me think he will do just fine.

Living here in Chicago, alot of my coworkers are Badger alumni and it sounds like it might be becuase of Alvaraez and the way he has forced Bilemna to make personnel changes over the last yr or so. And the one coach Bilemna pushed to retain, the O-line coach, had to be fired after the bad start this yr.
Makes more sense to me now in that maybe he just wanted more freedom without Alvarez pulling the strings as AD.
