QB-Brandon Allen: "He's definitely got the resume. The Rose Bowls, the Big Ten championships. When I heard his resume, I was automatically excited about him. From meeting with him, the things he had to say and the direction he's trying to take this program in, I'm looking forward to it."
K-Zach Hocker: "We are excited. We had a team meeting about an hour ago and the excitement around the room and the emotion from the guys was unbelievable. We are ready to get this ball on the road and get going."
CB-Tevin Mitchel: "I think it's a great hire. I think we took our time and found a great coach. We found our target and got Coach B. I'm real thankful that we're able to get him. I've heard nothing but good things about him at Wisconsin. He's a great coach and I just know that he's going to build this program to be great."
FB- Kiero Small: "I was anxious, anxious to meet with him, that first time. He is a big guy. He walked in and was a big guy. You can tell that he has a sense of humor but you can also tell that he wants you to work. For the few hours that I have known him, that is what I have got."
DE-Chris Smith: "He's a kind of laid back guy, but he's not going to beat around the bush. He'll keep things straight up with us. He told us he just wants us to be successful. It's all up to us as long as we work hard from day one. He's happy to be here. Everybody's fired up. Razorback fans are fired up. Hopefully we can be successful next season."
C-Travis Swanson: "I like him a lot. He made a good first impression. I think he is going to fit in well here. I think the players are going to do a good job to fit into whatever system he brings in. Overall I think it is going to be good."
Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Jeff Long (opening statement) –"Well thank you everyone for joining us here today. We have many members of our media and I want to thank you for being here with us a number of special guests. First I would like to recognize a few people with us. We have the president of our system Dr. Don Bobbitt. We also have with us our chancellor Dr. David Gearhart, the chairman of our Board of Trustees Mike Akin and I also know have trustee Jeff Hyneman and trustee Jane Rogers, as well as trustee Mark Waldrip. It's good to see all of our trustees today. None of you will know how excited I am to stand here today and introduce the next head football coach at the University of Arkansas. I want to share with you a little bit about our process. First of all, our chancellor, our president and our board of trustees were instrumental in this hiring process. Dr. Bobbitt, Dr. Gearhart and Mike Akin were supportive about the process and they kept our other Board of Trustees members on board and informed throughout the process. They provided great advice and counsel. They were very supportive. They were engaged and they encouraged me throughout this process. When we started in this process I told them there are ups and downs and backs and forths and many reports that are unfounded and untrue. The fan base will be excited and nervous and all of those things. This one is particularly interesting because it went on for eight months. Our trustees have been so supportive. I will tell you the thing that meant the most to me was that they entrusted me to carry out the process. That trust is everything. While I kept them informed they allowed me to do my job and that's all an athletic director asks of those above him.
"I am deeply appreciative of their support. I also want to thank a couple of people on my staff, Senior Associate (Athletic Director) Jon Fagg. Jon was critical to the success of this process and supported me throughout. I also have the support of the CFO Clayton Hamilton and our Associate AD for Academics Eric Wood. They were a very important part of this process throughout. Last April when we began this process I talked about the characteristics we were looking for and it was someone who shared the passion and success that our fans do and is willing to work tirelessly to achieve those goals. It would be someone who embraces the high expectations to win an SEC championship and a national championship. It would be someone who has discipline and accountability in their program, both on the field and in the classroom. It would also be someone who would lead our student-athletes and coaches with honesty and integrity and class on and off the field and, finally, someone who embraced the passion of football and embraced the passion of this fan base and what it means to all of us throughout the state of Arkansas. There is no question that the new head football coach embodies all of these characteristics. I'm proud to say that the coach we are introducing to the Razorback Nation today meets all of those expectations and has a football resume that includes five New Year's Day Bowl games, three Rose Bowls, two Big Ten championships and he has done this all in seven years and all before the ripe old age of 43. Just as important, he also brings the commitment of impacting the lives of the student-athletes he works with. His most recent APR was a 975, 50 points above the 925 benchmark. He also, over the last three years, has had 60 Academic All-Big Ten football selections on his team. He has a style of physical football that has led to some of the most dominating defenses in the country, an offense that begins with winning at the line of scrimmage and includes a balanced offensive approach. You also see that balanced offensive approach can produce some 70 points as he did last week in the Big Ten Championship Game. He is a coach who has won the right way both on and off the field. He is a coach that deeply values his relationships with student-athletes, and that means a great deal to me. Before I introduce our new head football coach I would like to introduce another new member of our team and that's his wonderful wife Jen. This afternoon I am very proud to be the athletic director of the University of Arkansas Razorbacks as we officially introduce the 32nd head football coach of the University of Arkansas Razorbacks, Bret Bielema."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (opening statement) –"Thank you for coming today. I'm very excited to stand in front of you. I apologize because my voice is a little raspy. It was a loud venue we played in on Saturday night and some of my guys weren't listening all the time, so I had to raise my voice occasionally. I have a long list of people to thank. Obviously, I'd like to say thank you to Jeff and his staff. I've met some of you along the way and today has been a whirlwind. I'm looking forward to the next several days and getting to know all of you. The thing that I learned in this profession is it isn't necessarily about the person directly in charge, the head coach, my offensive and defensive coordinators or all my assistant coaches, it is about the people that are around the administration and the support staff. The people who touch our lives and our players' lives on a daily basis. That's the only time you can build something that will last a long, long time. Chancellor David Gearhart, I want to thank you very much. To have this opportunity, I have been blessed. I've worked with several presidents and chancellors and I haven't worked with you yet, but I look forward to in the months ahead. What today brings is an opportunity for me to stand in front of you and chase a dream. I really didn't get into coaching in kind of a normal way. I grew up, ironically, on a pig farm. I grew up in an environment where really all I thought I was going to do was grow up on the farm and help my dad carry on a tradition that he taught me from the age of four moving forward. When I left the farm, I cried like crazy because it was all I knew. I'm glad I was raised that way. If there is one thing I learned in this life is that every job I've had, every goal that I've taken, every responsibility that I've gotten it truly is up to you to put in the work and the time to do it right the first time so you won't have to go back and do it again. I learned that through my days growing up on a farm. I just got out of a meeting with some young men, our players, who are returning next year. They gave me every indication that they are ready to move forward. I first commended them for going through a stretch in their lives that they will remember forever. I truly believe that in this country very successful men are defined more in their times of adversity than in their times of success. I made sure that they understood where I was coming from. We've had a lot of that in my coaching career and in my personal life as well. I challenge them to just persevere through. I know that they want to have more success and they wanted to be going to a bowl game. I know that they wanted to achieve all of the things that they thought were in front of them at the beginning of the year, but they persevered. I saw a team play their final game in a manner that they were not ones that gave in or let up. They competed to the end and unfortunately didn't come up with the last victory, but they won, I'm sure, to a lot of the people in this room and a lot of people in the Arkansas Nation that were proud of that team on that day. It truly is exciting for me to get to know the fan base in Arkansas. I actually grew up in Illinois, but one of my favorite aunt and uncle live in Little Rock and my favorite cousins. I'd only get to see them once or twice a year because they only came for Thanksgiving or the Holidays. Actually, my aunt and uncle still live in Little Rock and one of my cousins lives here in Fayetteville. It's going to be fun to rekindle with them. They used to bring me some Arkansas gear. I couldn't even tell you where Arkansas was when I was eight, but I was wearing that hat. With that, they introduced me to what the fans of Arkansas are really about. The fans and the alumni, I haven't met a lot of you yet, but you have great passion. I witnessed it first-hand during my first year as a head coach. I had the good fortune of having a very good football team and we lost one game that year to Michigan. It was on a very bad officiating call. I can say that now that I'm not in that league. They can't fine me, but it was a punt return that got called back. Anyways, long story. It is the first thing that I recognized when we got to the Capital One Bowl that everywhere I went we got cat calls and the 'Woo Pig Sooie'. Around the bowl week their players had a great amount of passion and a great amount of respect for them and we played a very hard-fought game. Of course for us at that time, and for me who was on the other sideline, we won that game. Now to come full circle and have an opportunity to lead this program is truly exceptional. To the fan base and the alumni, I can tell you from this day forward we will do everything as players and coaches to try and give you every win that you deserve. We will take it one game at a time and I am not going to promise anything, but I will tell you I am here and I want to give you something you have never had. We will take it one day at a time and pursue that thing together. To future recruits in Arkansas, I will tell you this that one of the first things that attracted me to Arkansas is that it is just the University of Arkansas in this state. I realize there are other universities, but nobody is playing Division I football at the level that we are going to play. If anyone in this state can play at a championship level we need them here at the University of Arkansas. That is very, very important. I've learned that during my coaching tenure at every state university if you can't solidify things here in state and they are going to play in another state then you're not going to be as good as you can be. It's going to be important from his day forward that we carry that thought of throwing a fence around the state borders and realize that everybody needs to stay here at home and represent us in a very positive manner. No matter if I am here in the state of Arkansas or I am in the state of Texas or if I am in Florida or I am anywhere that maybe Arkansas hasn't gone before because I have a special connection with a high school coach or a program that believes in what we are then we will recruit uncommon men here. We will recruit men that are held to higher standards. I don't want people to be normal. I want them to be uncommon. I want them to be the standard that is set in the world of college football on and off the field. I think I have everybody here but probably the most important person in my life to make this jump today is because last March I got married. You shouldn't cry when you are talking about the wedding, but I waited 42 years of life to enter into that world and the biggest reason that I was excited for a chance to come into a university, to come into a city, to come into a state was because of a woman who has changed my life and held me together and we are only seven or eight months into it and it's only going to get better. I'd like to introduce my wife Jen."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on his first Hog Call) –"It felt very good. Ask my family and friends, it is definitely something I can improve on. I guarantee it."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on leaving Wisconsin) –"I appreciate the question and I understand that I left a great place. I left a place that gave me my first head coaching job. One of the things that I really believe in as a coach is that if you can leave a place in a better place than where you were, you should feel good. We gave them three straight Big Ten championships. That had never been done before. I would love to say thank you to Coach Alvarez, my AD that gave me a tremendous amount of guidance. It was a very difficult decision. It wasn't something that I just had to think about. I have had some opportunities come my way the last two years that made me think a little bit. I have such a tremendous respect for Wisconsin, but the opportunity to be in the SEC is something that I really wanted to do. Early on in my coaching career I was given the opportunity to become a defensive coordinator. I let that opportunity go by. It was probably the best thing I ever did, but it made me think about coaching in the SEC and I am just glad the opportunity came at Arkansas. There were only two or three schools that I would have thought about doing this for. After I got involved in it there was only one school I would have done it for, and that was Arkansas."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on if he will coach in the Rose Bowl and if he is nervous about coming to the south) –"I will not coach in the Rose Bowl. When I had my conversation with Coach Alvarez, Jeff (Long) came out there with me with the intent on being pretty aggressive on the timing of it. Coach Alvarez is a very persuasive individual so before I went and saw him I knew what I was doing and had to do. As far as being nervous, the thing that intrigued me as I have watched over the years, the SEC, there are a lot of coaches that have had my type of background that have had success. Not only growing up and being a part of it but coming here from a Big Ten coaching background early in their career. Some of the principles and things that people have done, I am excited to work with the caliber of the athlete that the SEC can bring. What we can bring to the University of Arkansas is very exciting."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on his thoughts on SEC recruiting) –"I think obviously the comments I made in regards to the SEC a year ago, you have to understand this, a year ago I was the coach at the University of Wisconsin. I was the two-time defending Big Ten Champion. The issues that came about because of that comment really had nothing to do with what was going on. Unfortunately it got spun into that. I wasn't misquoted because I said it but they quotes that weren't really at the root of what the question was. I have a great amount of respect for the SEC. That is why I am standing in front of you today. The part that I think you guys have to appreciate, where you are is what you need to protect and stand up for what you believe in. Nobody will have a stronger support of the SEC than myself. "
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on how talks evolved with Jeff Long) –"Sunday, we got done with a very big game on Saturday night. The Big Ten Championship Game, for whatever reason, decided to be the last championship game in the world of college football. When I was coming in the locker room before the game I was watching the end of the Alabama-Georgia game and seeing that unfold. I clicked it off. I didn't even watch the last two minutes and in retrospect I should have, knowing what I know now. I clicked it off and said, the SEC, they should play the late game and we should be the earlier late game. Low and behold we got done and it was 11:30. I'm not real quick with numbers but we had scored a number of points and Nebraska had scored a certain number of points and I was trying to figure out how many touchdowns they would have to get in the last quarter to win the game. I figured it was above five touchdowns. I was like, 'My defense isn't going to allow that to happen'. I looked at my watch and said, 'Is it 11:30?' My coordinator goes, 'Yeah coach it's 11:35.' I didn't walk into the hotel until about 1:30. I didn't touch my phone that night, I left it alone. Sunday I checked my messages and I had over 60 messages and one of the messages was to reach out to Jon (Fagg) first. I had a conversation with him and agreed to go meet in New York City on Monday. I was already going to New York City for the Hall of Fame. I met with them late Sunday night. I went to the hotel and thought about it, processed it. I met again with Jeff and Jon on Monday morning. I saw Coach Alvarez at about 11:30 or 11:45. It was around 2:30 when we were on the airplane to Madison. It happened very, very quickly. Again, this was something that I processed, not Arkansas itself, but in my mind for a little bit. We had done some great things, went to two straight Rose Bowls and waiting for that Nebraska game for a chance to go to a third. The way we played gave me some satisfaction that they had a pretty good team coming back. They have 27 juniors and I believe 14 draftable players next year. I believe it is going to be another good year. I thought it was time for me to spread my wings and fly a little bit further."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on planning to interview assistant coaches) –"That is a great question. I have been a part of some of these coaching changes and unfortunately I learned this one first hand. I was a young coach at the University of Iowa. Hayden Fry had to step down. Coach Broyles you know of Hayden Fry. I played for Hayden. He gave me a scholarship when I was a walk on. He came into my office to tell me he was retiring and I started crying like a baby. I didn't know what was going to happen. I got a phone call from my mother and she said 'Do you have a job?' I said 'Not only do I not have a job I don't have a car'. The university gives you a car. I was sitting there saying 'Who are they going to bring in? What are they going to do?' It went on and on, the search, and finally they brought in Kirk Ferentz. He came in and one thing he did was he interviewed every coach but he kept walking by my office. I was getting nervous and it was like 10 o'clock and he said 'Let's meet tomorrow.' And I said 'No, no, no let's take an interview tonight.' It was such an unknowing thing so I made a promise that if I was ever in this situation, I was going to interview every coach on the current staff and decide things on my own before I hired a coach from anywhere else. I have not hired another coach; I have not hired another person to come to the University of Arkansas as of today. I tried to meet with our staff today but there were three or four coaches that were on the road recruiting so they were hoping to get back today. I am going to meet with our staff tomorrow at 9 a.m. and go through a sheet of information that I want to share with all of them together for the first time. I will sit down individually with the ones that want to sit down with me and talk about their job there and anything they want to tell me that can make the job better and whether they want to share it with me or not. Then we will make some decisions or not. I can't tell you whether I am going to bring someone in from Wisconsin. I can't tell you if I am going to bring someone from any other university in the United States. I can tell you this, the staff that I am going to assemble is going to be second to none. It is going to be that way because of the support I have got from the administration."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on his approach to recruiting and hitting the ground running) –"Absolutely. The part that is very important to me is to understand not only the players that we are bringing in here but the person we are bringing in here. I am a big believer in, obviously there are a lot of young men in the United States that can play great football but they have to fit into the ideas and the beliefs and the system itself. Arkansas academically has a strong reputation. All of those things, we need to understand that we bring a young man in, he is going to play good football year one but he is going to play great football year four. We want to make sure he gets there. We are bringing in a type of kid that is going to buy into this culture. That takes a little bit of film study but that takes a lot of person study. I will be in making phone calls as soon as we get off this stage to every kid that has committed to us. I will review their film in the next 24 hours, to make sure that we want to move forward with every kid that is committed to us. There are a couple that I have already seen already that we want to make sure we are in. I will not be hitting the road until Monday, simply because I want to be able to give great service to the staff this year, to the administration. I want to have a good understanding of what I can bring in here and then go out on the road. As a head coach you can only go once. So if I am coming to visit you, I only have one chance to meet your mom and your dad, your brother, your minister, your preacher, whoever it is I only have one chance to go into your school. Assistants get to go in six times so when I decide to cash my coin I have to make this thing last. I won't want to use that unless I know it's real."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on assistant coaches) – "Offensive coordinator, I have a short list of six people that I'm interested in. Some I know very, very well. Some okay, through the coaching profession. It's something that I would prioritize as the first thing on my agenda when I go to hire a staff, because it's obviously going to be something new due to the departure of Paul (Petrino). On my staff is it important to have guys from the SEC? I think that would be a bonus. Not to say that it's a mandatory thing. I've learned that. I grew up on a small farm in Illinois. I grew up in an environment where it was very, very different from the world of college football that I'm in now. Everywhere I went, I've been able to recruit because of the person you are, not because of where I'm from. I understand that SEC experience would be very nice, and my guess is that several of my coaches will have that. But it's not a priority. I'm going to recruit good coaches to bring them here and fall in love with Arkansas and represent what we need to go out and play the game."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on paying assistant coaches) – "I remember I was an assistant at the University of Iowa. I was going to leave and be the defense GA at Stillwater at Oklahoma State. Coach Hayden Fry said to me 'You don't want to do that.' I said 'Why not?' and he said 'I'm going to make you my interim linebackers coach. I've got some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that I can only give you a Buick LeSabre.' And I'm driving this thing that can barely go. And I said that was good news to me, what was the good news? And he said 'I can pay you 60,000 dollars.' I thought I was a millionaire. I was making $6,000 as a GA and didn't really comprehend what that meant. As I became more and more successful they kept paying me more and more money. When I came to the University of Wisconsin, Barry Alvarez said if you have success here, you get justly rewarded. When I began to have more and more success at Wisconsin, I stayed, but a lot of my coaches left. I just wasn't able to compensate them in a way that other coaches were. I lost three coaches last year that were making $225,000 to making over $400,000 each. I know I'm hiring the right guys because everybody keeps taking them from me. The NFL, they kind of upset me because they've got silly money, they've got monopoly money. So this year, as soon as we won that game, I had three coaches come to me the day after the game and they had been contacted by other schools, offering them money that I can't bring them at Wisconsin. Wisconsin isn't wired to do that at this point. I felt that for me and my future, and for my wife, and what I wanted to accomplish in the world of college football, I needed to have that ability to do that. And thankfully I've found that here at Arkansas. To be quite honest, I was talking to my wife about it and that was part of the equation. We are very happy with where we're at. We're going to enjoy the value of whatever my contract is here. But you have to coach every day no matter what the price is."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on if he thinks Wisconsin will try to hire Paul Chryst to replace him) – "I totally get it. Paul is a great coach. I don't comment on things, and the more you get to know me, you'll learn that I don't comment on things that I'm not involved in. Whoever Coach Alvarez picks is going to be phenomenal. I think he's actually coaching the bowl game, which is awesome. They might finally win one. Everybody tells me he won three, and I lost two. They will have a tremendous opportunity in the bowl game. Whoever the coach is when he makes that decision will be awesome."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on if the dream he is chasing is a national championship) – "When I say 'chase a dream', understand, reporters all the time put words in your mouth. I didn't say that. I said I came here to chase a dream and by that if what I want to chase is a byproduct of winning a national championship, that's awesome. I've never been to a place where I can give them something they've never had. I just won three Big Ten Championships in a row at Wisconsin. It hadn't been done in almost 35 years in the conference. It's something that you can't put a price tag on that. On the same account it's been done. Arkansas, it's never been done. Never won an SEC title. Been in the game three times. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out that if you win the SEC title you might be playing in the big one, especially after 2014. That to me is what it's all about."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on spending time in Arkansas and the people of Arkansas) – "I've spent minimal time in the state of Arkansas, but we actually recruited a tight end, Jake Byrne, who was a great player for us at Wisconsin. The things that Jeff got me excited about, and Jon and his staff, was I love people with passion. There's nothing that I love better than seeing a guy that's got maybe a blue collar job, a guy that goes about his job the same way every day. Maybe he has to go to work at six and he's done at three, but he's passionate about what he does. That's what I love. I love people that love what they're doing. The University of Arkansas has passionate people that support us. We have passionate supporters financially that is very, very apparent to me with the buildings that I'm seeing constructed and the things we have available to us, that they're very passionate about financially supporting us, which I'm very thankful for. But it's also the people that don't have the financial means to support us, but they do have the emotional means to support us, with great fans, great signs, great social media support. Whatever it is, it's fun to see that environment."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on an offensive coordinator) – "I know this; there are a lot of great offensive philosophies out there. The things that I've seen work on the biggest stages have been offenses that can be consistent in what they're doing. They move the chains, they score touchdowns in the red zone, they don't beat themselves before the ball is snapped. One of the things that I pride myself on, I believe that in the last three years, the University of Wisconsin has been the least penalized team in the Big Ten. Three years ago, we were the least penalized in college football. We're not going to beat ourselves before the snap. That's an important aspect. Everybody wants to talk about how many games are won on Saturday. There are a lot of games that are lost on Saturday. People that fumble the football, people that throw interceptions, people that break down defensively, people that can't execute on special teams. It's important for us to learn how not to lose the game before we learn how to win the game and offensive philosophy will be a big part of that."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on if he expects a more difficult transition coming off a 4-8 season) – "I would defer that to our players moving forward. I wasn't in the meeting rooms with John L. (Smith); I wasn't in the meeting rooms with Bobby (Petrino). All I know is how to coach the way I know how to coach. That speaks the truth to our players, I'm never going to lie, I'm never going to make something look better than it is. We're a 4-8 football team that a lot of people thought were going to be great at the beginning of the year. All I can do is move forward. Next year's preseason rankings, no one's going to rank us No. 1 in the West. I doubt we're going to be in the top four. We could be, just out of respect for this program. The fact of the matter is, in life a lot of people, they never cheer for the favorite. They pull for the underdog. Right now, we might be that guy. However we got there, whatever it is. Someday, I'm going to love being in front of you being the favorite. Right now, we're going to embrace being the underdog. We're going to kiss it and make it feel good. We can't accept it, but we're going to move forward. I don't want someone in this room right now to think that we're great. If you're settled with what we just got through, then we're not going to be where we need to be. I think that is very important. I want to tell that to our players, make them understand it, breed it, live it, love it."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on how much he anticipates the offense changing) – "The offense that we end up running here, it's always going to be a transition. There's going to be new words, new vocabulary, and a new playbook. How much it relates to last year's offense versus next year's offense is to be determined. There's a certain idea in my mind of what I would like to have happen. I really want to get a feel for what our personnel is. The one thing I know about offense is the great respect you can have as a coach is when you're able to fit a plan to the team you have. I'm going to recruit a certain way, and you'll get more and more specific as the years go forward. If you don't have the right dogs in the race, then you are not going to win. Whatever race we get into with a philosophy, we have to make sure that we have the right people to run it."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on what he learned from Hayden Fry) – "I've listened to Coach Fry talk so many times. I saw Coach Broyles coach at a national coaches convention when I was a young coach. I came to the University of Iowa as a farm kid. I knew how to work. I didn't have a scholarship. Every day after practice, all the great players wanted me to stay after and work with them. Coach Fry pulled me aside, and he didn't even know my name. He called me 86. That was my number, thank God. He just kept saying to me, 'Keep doing what you're doing, believe in what you're doing.' I ended up playing as a redshirt freshman. I think that's when he probably learned my name, because I was playing. The next year I was going through spring ball, and I tore my ACL in spring ball. I was talking to the trainer and he said 'You tore your ACL'. They said you could either fix it, and you'll be out six months to a year, or you can play and train your hamstring to take its place. You can see what happens. I said 'Let's do that.' They said you can play as soon as you can stand it. He goes, 'If you choose to play without an ACL, if you play at the next level in the NFL, they'll fail you on your physical'. I'm thinking I'm just trying to play at Iowa, I don't know about the NFL. I played seven days later, earned a scholarship. If I hadn't earned that scholarship, I probably wouldn't have been able to stay there because of my family surroundings. Little did I know, I started to play pretty good. I had a great NFL career – it was seven days. I failed my physical because I didn't have an ACL ligament. I started thinking to myself that was probably pretty dumb, but I wasn't good enough anyway. Coach Fry taught me during his career to just stick to what you know, be good at what you're doing, work hard, and good things are going to happen to good people. I could go for a million Coach Fry stories. I don't know Coach Broyles that well, but I'm sure there's a million of them too."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on passion of the fans) – "I would say to embrace every moment of it. We're not going to do it overnight, but we're going to work day by day and I'll tell our players we're going to take it one day at a time, one play at a time, one hit at a time. I'm excited to be in this league. It's obvious that the people are very, very passionate. You just gained two of the biggest fans in me and Jen. I've got a pretty big family as well, so there's going to be people across the United States that just became Razorback fans."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on misconceptions about his offense) – "Our offense at Wisconsin during my seven years commonly got grouped into traditional Big Ten offense. Especially for everyone in here, whether you're a Wisconsin fan or not, have probably heard of Ron Dayne, the national rushing record holder. Back then they did run the football. I played against them. They ran the ball 60 times because they could. It's a lot easier to run the ball than to throw the ball. The part that is real is during my time at the University of Wisconsin, we did have great balance. We were one of two or three teams that ran for 200 and threw for 200 (yards per game). That shows great balance, but it's very difficult to defend. You want to throw the ball all the time, okay play pass defense. If you want to run the ball all the time, play run defense. I think balance is the key."
Head Coach Bret Bielema (on recruiting in Texas and Florida) – "It's very important. Geographically, because of the SEC, Texas has always impressed me, but obviously you have the Big 12. It's a very fertile area, and you'll have your battles, but we'll have to have that area covered well. One of the neat things I've been able to do in my time as an assistant coach, coordinator, and head coach, is to recruit the state of Florida. Especially in South Florida. In the state of Florida you'll have kids that will leave, and especially when you get below Orlando, those kids will go anywhere. I'm excited to get there. I've signed over 50 kids from the state of Florida in my coaching career. Some of those guys have been my best players. At Wisconsin our secondary this year is the best since I've been there, and we have three of the four players from the state of Texas. So it's not uncommon ground, it's something I'm very excited about moving forward on."

However, to summarise briefly, the cabin (suite in cruise ship terms) was larger than the similar one we had on QM2, very clean and, I believe, had certainly been refurbished i.e. sofa, 2 armchairs, tv etc. all very new.
Housekeeping was excellent, butler service very welcome. Dining room manager was extremely helpful in finding us a table that suited 2 of our party who have quite severe hearing problems. We all found the food of good quality and always received additional vegetables etc. when asked for. Probably the highlight of the dining room was the "open kitchen" evening when a buffet was available from the actual kitchen. This was most welcome and was obviously enjoyed by many.
We have never cruised on a small ship before but, apart from the size of the swimming pool, had no issues at all. The library was good, very few announcements compared to larger ships, excellent life boat drill (compared to QM2). Would we return to Silver Cloud? Probably not because we would like to try Silver Spirit. In today's financially competitive world very good value.

Summer event season is in
full swing in the Quad City area. And as the events go on, so does severe
Event organizers must plan
for any possible weather conditions. Burlington Steamboat Days President and
Des Moines County Sheriff, Mike Johnson, said organizers run through exercises
with emergency management crews.
"We think of all possible
scenarios that could happen at Steamboat Days," he said.
The planning came in handy
Saturday night when high winds and lightning forced musician Kid Rock to delay
taking the stage for several hours.
The event's Facebook page
was full of comments from the concert-goers who were confused about the
delay... many of them weren't sure if it was a delay or a cancellation.
Johnstone said organizers
always plan for severe weather, but their plan only carries so much weight.
"The performers don't
really want to say whether they're coming on," Sheriff Johnstone said. "They
don't want to talk about it because what they don't want to do is say there's a
rain delay...we'll be on later...then they're not."
Johnstone said about 8,600
people waited out the cold, the rain and the wind and stayed for the concert.
However, thousands of others left.

As Connecticut Nears 7,500 Layoffs, AP Nearly Ignores Over 75 Tax Hikes Effective July 1
Susan Haigh's report Friday evening on the current status of budget negotiations between Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy and the state's public-sector unions contains two glaring errors which mar the entire enterprise.
Haigh conveniently withheld the fact that the Nutmeg State's legislature has already approved $2.6 billion in new taxes over two years until her report's final paragraph, while giving voice in a much earlier paragraph to an absurd union demand that "big businesses and wealthy taxpayers would be asked to pay more if they agreed to givebacks." Uh, the taxes have already happened, guys. She also dramatically understated the objections of state residents to the over 75(!) new taxes which have been imposed.
Here are excerpts from Haigh's hijinks (bolds are mine):
Unions scuttle Conn. budget deal; layoffs eyed
A state employee union vote on Friday scuttled a labor-concessions package that Gov. Dannel P. Malloy was counting on to balance a two-year state budget, setting the stage for cuts that could include thousands of layoffs.
The new Democratic governor, who has prided himself on being more pro-union than some of his Republican colleagues across the country, had offered workers four years of no layoffs in return for a two-year wage freeze and changes to health and retirement benefits. But ultimately there was not enough support to clear the high bar set by union rules to make changes to a coveted, 20-year contract that's not set to expire until 2017. [1]
With the deal rejected, Malloy said he had no choice but to begin issuing layoff notices to as many as 7,500 employees. He said the number could be higher if there's a delay.
... The deal reached between Malloy and union leadership was supposed to save $1.6 billion in the two-year, $40.1 billion budget that takes effect on July 1 and covers a $3.3 billion deficit. Malloy has called the General Assembly back to the state Capitol for a special legislative session on Thursday to seek more budget-cutting authority to balance the plan and possibly make cuts.
... As of Friday afternoon, more employees - at least 60 percent - had voted in favor of the tentative agreement than opposed it. But the deal died because of the union coalition's rules, which requires 14 of the 15 unions to support any change to the retirement and health care benefits package that it negotiates. In this case, 11 unions had voted in favor of the agreement while two opposed it. [2] Two unions were still voting on Friday.
(Paragraph 15)
... State employees had various issues with the deal, with some saying they wanted promises that big businesses and wealthy taxpayers would be asked to pay more if they agreed to givebacks. [3]
... Malloy, who received strong support from state employee unions during last year's close gubernatorial election, has said for months that he didn't want to lay anyone off and has made a point of talking about how he respects the workers' collective bargaining rights. He often contrasted himself with the governors of Wisconsin, New Jersey and Ohio who have been at odds with organized labor.
(Paragraphs 19 and 20)
... Rejection of the labor deal is the latest political blow to Malloy, whose popularity has suffered because of his approach to solving the budget deficit. A Quinnipiac University Poll released last week shows that 38 percent of voters said they approve of the job Malloy is doing as governor while 44 percent disapprove.
Many voters have voiced concern over how the budget raises taxes by $1.4 billion in the first year and $1.2 billion in the second. Many of those tax hikes kick in on July 1.
- [1] -- A 20-year contract? How can anyone have agreed to a 20-year deal in 1997? If this doesn't prove that government involvement freezes the status quo, I don't know what does. So this is how the state got to the point where its "debt-per-capita ratio is the highest in the country, according to Moody's." The fact that the 20-year monstrosity was consummated while ultimately disgraced Republican Governor John Rowland was in charge should not be overlooked.
- [2] -- So much for labor's belief in "democracy." The majority of workers are okay with the deal but if only two unions out of 15 aren't, the deal doesn't get done.
- [3] -- Some of the tax increases going into effect on July 1, according to one of the state's representatives, include: Income tax increases in all brackets; Sales tax increase, from 6% to 6.35%; Clothing under $50 now subject to sales tax; New tax on non-prescription drugs, vitamins, manicures/pedicures, yoga; Increased taxes on hotel rooms, cigarettes, alcohol; Expansion of the gift and estate taxes; Conveyance tax increase; Real estate conveyance tax made permanent; Decrease of $200 in property tax credit; Diesel fuel tax increase from 26¢ to 29¢; Increase in driver's license and vehicle registration fees; Hike in corporate surcharge tax. After perusing the Tax Foundation's take on Connecticut even before the tax increases just noted, two words best describe the state's tax system: "punitive" and "disastrous."
- [4] -- Haigh's notice of taxpayer "concern" over the state's tax increases is a monumental understatement. On June 15, the Wall Street Journal's Shelly Banjo reported on poll results showing that "More than half of Connecticut voters are angry over the way the governor handled the state budget, specifically in his choice to impose more than 75 new taxes." Seventy-freaking-five? Is there anything left that isn't taxed?
In a headier moment earlier this year, Governor Malloy described himself as the "anti-Christie," pointedly mocking New Jersey's Chris Christie for pursuing structural reform in the state's financial and bargaining relationship with its public-sector unions. Malloy is learning the hard way that Christie's approach works, and that depending on the unions to voluntarily give back anything doesn't. Sadly, when push comes to shove, union leadership, especially in the public sector, is all too often okay with layoffs of less senior members if it will preserve the plush benefits -- and perhaps increase the overtime -- of those who remain.
I wonder how much news Connecticut's layoffs, if they come to pass, will generate in comparison to the avalanche of coverage given to Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's reforms, which "just so happen," as far as I can tell, to have resulted in no mass layoffs?

"probably". I try to leave some room, just in case he comes around somewhat.
But, buying in to the "illegal" guns makes him sound like Bloomberg and Daly. There are very few "illegal" guns out there, there are a lot of guns that are used illegally.
As for coal, if we have it in the ground, and technology makes it cost effective, burn it.

There are still a few of us good guys here in Connecticut fighting for our lives! Between the New York implants and the union led cities, us normal folks here in the sticks don't stand a chance, but we're trying!
Here's the thing, Malloy never expected to get any concessions from these unions and he never expects to have to issue any layoffs. He's backing off his threat already. Now he's talking fewer than expected layoffs and no one getting the ax until next week at the earliest. A Connecticut Dem going against the union? I don't think so. However, I'm pretty sure the multitude of new and increased taxes will still go into effect for the rest of us come the 1st, but Connecticut will still be employing thousands of workers we neither need nor can afford for many years to come.
'Old DAN is a typical tax and spend liberal. He could care less (and so could our Dem controlled legislature) how in debt we get. There's always a new tax, or at least an increase, around the next election.
Also, this genius actually included in his budget that millions would be saved by asking the state employees to offer suggestions as to how they could save money. That's right folks, a suggestion box made it into our state budget. Isn't that quaint?

I'm trying to find this guy for you. He's not in the cemetery record. I have spoken with the keeper of the records and Charles is listed as a veteran buried there, but the location is not documented for some reason. They are checking so if they come up with anything I'll get the pic for you. Otherwise, I walk that cemetery often, so I might just happen across him by accident one day. Do you have any information on him that could be helpful, such as other family members who might be buried nearby?

Thank you for your acknowledgement. Your friend (or relative) is interred in what is referred to as a columbarium, which is a wall where cremains are located. Mr. Beem's first digit in the plot number is a "1", which means he is on the uppermost level of the columbarium, which keeps the markers looking really fresh and clean, as opposed to the ground which can get overgrown at times. They do their best at keeping the cemetery well kempt, but with what I believe is now approaching 50,000, it's quite a job. Best of luck finding all those you seek. Regards.

One person is in custody in connection with a fatal shooting on the Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation that killed one man.
The victim has been identified as 29-year-old Joel Sherman.
The F-B-I says a suspect in the case surrendered over the weekend.
Sherman was found dead early last Wednesday in the Eagleview neighborhood in Belcourt.
The shooting prompted a lockdown of area schools and a region-wide man hunt.
One person wanted in the case is now in tribal custody, facing charges.
Police on the reservation would not comment on the investigation.
Relatives of Sherman say he left behind two children, including a ten-month-old daughter.
They say they're still in disbelief that he's gone.
(CLARENCE MARCELLAIS/Joel Sherman's Uncle) Very lovely child. Beautiful child. Very happy child. He was that throughout his life. He enjoyed his family. He had a big family and we all loved him.
Officials have not revealed the identity of the suspect who surrendered this weekend.

A chauffeur's life isn't so bad. You might get to drive around with celebrities. The pay might be pretty good. On the other hand, what if you simply volunteer to drive people around because they have no other means of transportation? Then you might be considered a hero.
Duane Aman is on a mission. This unassuming retiree spends time on the road as an angel of mercy. He gives patients rides to the Bismarck Cancer Center if they have no other transportation. They're generally people who've come from a long distance for extended treatment.
"It's all on my own time, my own gas and everything, which I don't mind. It's a nice thing to do, I think. And I get rewarded sometimes, I get a little bit in return. But nothing to worry about or get excited about," says Aman. "Good morning. How are you?"Joan Soehren lives in Bowman and she's here for several weeks of radiation and chemotherapy. Duane picks her up every day. And he knows what she's going through. He's beat cancer and his wife is in remission."Yeah, he's just a great guy. Takes me wherever I need to go, waits for me, comes and gets me. He just, yeah," says Soehren. And as soon as he drops Joan off, he heads out to give someone else a ride. Perhaps that's why the Cancer Center recently presented Duane with its My Hero Award at a special banquet.
If you'd like me to highlight someone who helps others just because it's a nice thing to do, let me know by phone, email or Facebook.

To clean, wipe with a damp cloth. Non-marking black plastic feet help protect sensitive flooring. The stools require minimal assembly and are not stackable once assembled as shown.

Twelve Days of Christmas
December 10, 2009 | Posted By: Kathryn Katz
One of my favorite holiday songs is the Twelve Days of Christmas. Its a fun song to sing, but if you were to open up your wallet and indulge in paying for all of these gifts for your true love, the cost of the Twelve Days of Christmas would be $87,403.00. Wow! Thats quite a Christmas present.
Imagine if you were to put your true loves gifts on a credit card that had a 17.99% interest rate that required a minimum payment of 2.5% of the balance. Your minimum monthly payment for the Twelve Days of Christmas would be approximately $2,185.00. If you were to not put anymore debt on this credit card and consistently make monthly payments of $2,185.00, it would take you 42 years and 6 months to pay off the Twelve Days of Christmas. You would end up paying a total of $122,326.97 in interest for your true loves gifts. By using a credit card, you could potentially pay $209,729.97 for the Twelve Days of Christmas, which is more than double the original price!
In reality, many of us this holiday season arent going to spend anywhere near the Twelve Days of Christmas. However, hopefully this gives you a clear lesson on the costs of using a credit card to pay for your holiday gifts. If you dont have the ability to pay the balance off at the end of the month, you should probably reconsider using your credit cards.
Here are three tips to help you be more frugal and avoid getting caught up in the holiday spending madness:
Create a Christmas Budget - Dont start your holiday shopping until you know how much you have to spend. National Retail Federation estimates that the average consumer is going to spend $682.74 on this years holiday-related shopping. Ideally, your holiday budget shouldnt include adding more debt to your credit cards.
Make a Shopping List Write down a list of everyone you want to give a Christmas gift to this year, the type of gift, and the dollar amount you want to spend on each person. Make sure the amounts dont exceed your overall holiday budget. If you budget doesnt stretch far enough, consider getting group gifts or making a few homemade Christmas gifts. Make your list early enough to give you time to shop for holiday deals on FatWallet.com.
Dont Shop Last Minute When you wait till the last minute to shop for your gifts, you dont leave enough time to research the best deals and risk the chance that what you want is out of stock. Basically, youre putting yourself at the mercy of retailers. You might end up buying gifts for the sake of giving rather than getting something that you want.
Remember, your love isnt about how much you spend, but rather the thought behind the gift. Hopefully, your true love will understand that youre not going to be putting 12 Drummers Drumming, 11 Pipers Piping, 10 Lords a Leaping, 9 Ladies Dancing, 8 Maids a Milking, 7 Swans a Swimming, 6 Geese a Laying, 5 Golden Rings, 4 Calling Birds, 3 French Hens, 2 Turtle Doves, and a Partridge in a Pear Tree underneath the Christmas tree.

The W.I.S.E. group has donated some really interesting-looking titles to the library. I will have to make a trip downtown to check them out in person when I have an opportunity.
