BARRY SWITZER, former Oklahoma coach, Arkansas alum:
The first thing I heard today was that he grew up on a pig farm. That’s quite a start in my book. And my last memory was watching him hang 70 on Nebraska. Just those two facts are enough. Then, I hear that he’s out of the Hayden Fry-Bill Snyder-Barry Alvarez coaching tree. Oh, that’s enough for me to like a lot. Then, I hear he’s got a 27-year-old wife. Okay, we can stop. I like him.
Bret Bielema at Arkansas passes the Barry Switzer test
An American hero with some Arkansas #analysis.

That quote’s from this message board, and hey it’s a message board. Who knows whether he actually said that? But it feels real, and that’s all that matters. If he hasn’t already, Barry Switzer should be commenting on Bret Bielema’s 27 year-old wife. Right? ROLL TIDE.
