As others have noted, Mangino's name is being thrown around as well.

Tedford has never run a read-option based offense, though. I don't know, maybe it's not that hard to adapt, but the two offenses are much different.

He still knows how to make sure that QB can throw the ball...

You'd still probably want another guy making the OC play calls, but Tedford would be the perfect guy to show a QB how to make the right reads and throws.

Between the coaching hire rumors and the conference realignment flops the last 3 weeks, I think Twitter might want to be renamed to Bull[Mark May]

In a stunning coup, Arkansas will hire Wisconsin's Bret Bielema as its next football coach, Yahoo! Sports has learned.
Bielema, who has taken the Badgers to three straight Rose Bowls, was nowhere on the radar amid months of speculation over who Arkansas would hire.
An announcement will come today, sources told Y! Sports, but Bielema is not expected to be introduced until Wednesday.
