Not sure why you would leave the Big Ten for the SEC especially Arkansas!!!

How stupid is it, though? He just hung 70 on Nebraska in the Big Ten Championship Game, sending a team to the Rose Bowl for the third consecutive year. With a five loss team that could've/should've lost to UTEP.

I think he's proven that he can coach. New challenge?

The collection of coaching talent in the SEC is unrivaled. Why not try and prove yourself against the best?

Id have stayed @ Wisconsin. He could have been there for the next 20+ years & been secure.

Iowa is his dream job so if that comes open he will leave Arkansas in a heartbeet.

Probably just for the money. The Rose Bowl this year is an anomoly due to tOSU and PSU situations. Wisconsin wasn't very good this year. Quarterback situation next year is iffy and he loses Monte Ball. Probably just for the money though.
