Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a Big 10 versus SEC thought. I was saying moving to
Arkansas is a step down. Yes, it's the SEC, and, yes, that's a big deal, but the school itself is not exactly a football power. Going to be up to him to try to turn them into one. But basically he's going from a place where he was always in the hunt for a conference championship (and a BCS bid...) to a school where he's just...not.
But there are reasons to do that, as i said. Better pay. Better facilities. No Barry Alvarez as AD.
And it could work...
