Bielema and Eihorst have a relationship dating back to their Wisconsin days. Eihorst wore many hats in the Badger athletic department from 2006 - 2011 moving up the latter as Deputy A.D. under Barry Alvarez.
Of course Bielema was the head coach of the Badgers.
The current Razorback head coach was asked about his commitment to Arkansas during a teleconference with local reporters.
Should the two parties reach an agreement then Nebraska would have to pony up $2.5 million to buy out Bielema's contract.
Would Bielema bolt Arkansas to return to the Big Ten Conference? Nebraska would seem to be a great fit for his system.
You have to ask why would he make that move to leave an Arkansas program that has some momentum.
The carousel keeps spinning

Talked to Bret Bielema and he said he's not going to Nebraska and that he's all Hog.

Bielema has worked too hard to get the Hogs' program to a point where they can compete in the West to bolt now.
