Normally he introduces various donors, military, special guests, etc during the commercials and half time. I have not seen him for at least the last two games. Letting associate AD do this now. Does anyone know what changed or where he is?

he's down in the endzone construction area, wearing a sniper moss suit.  If you watch closely, sometimes you'll catch some movement in the shadows....that's Jeff

He is as far away from Bielema as he can get.

I don't know where he is but wherever he is, I'm sure he's playing his fiddle.

He's a yankee, I'm sure he'd play a violin.

He's lovingly babysitting Bret and Jen's baby girl. He really is wonderful and supportive.

Well I hope they catch him and Jen on a motorcycle!!!

I would imagine this guy was in bed sound asleep by 10pm tonight dreaming sweet dreams of northeastern sophistication, Wall Street journal articles, and Hillary Clinton comebacks in 2020.
Thanks for the F Shack.

That's right, you don't want to be the man to replace the man.  You want to be the man to replace Rory Segrest.

Probably is laying low, so he doesn't get stuck having to answer any questions about the state of the program and Bret Bielema's future.

He's been seen hiding in a nearby cave in the Ozarks......

He is wise keeping a low profile. His Twitter activity has been kept to a minimum as well. This is another signal that change will happen.
Little known fact, but prior to settling on Guantanamo, the Pentagon wanted to house terror suspects at War Memorial Stadium.  It was deemed to be cruel and unusual punishment and in violation of the Geneva Convention.

Hopefully....he's been on the phone checking to see if there are any AD job openings.

Unfortunately for us, I don't think he's going to find any takers right now.

He's presiding over a dumpster fire and he's just letting the fire rage, he's doing nothing to quell it.

I don't think any other school would touch him right now for fear of him bringing some of the stink from the fire with him.

I sent him a tweet tonight. I've had a twitter account for a couple of years I guess, just never used it. I log in with my email address but the twitter name is tom something so I'm not even sure it's my account but my first tweet was tonight, the picture floating around of the stadium, over half empty, at the start of the fourth. I think maybe people tweeting him and Bret and anyone else OTHER THAN PLAYERS might get someone's attention.

Guys, somebody has to lose their job over this. In any field, or profession, or workplace, a failure of this magnitude at least gets the new guy fired.
"DO NOT POST IN THE GAME THREAD ANYMORE TODAY OR YOU WILL RECIEVE A 30 BAN!"--

Multiple play-by-play posters followed by "Good job, D" and "Way to go, Offense" is so interesting to read over and over as the team gets blown out and the coaches flounder. I can't figure out why game threads don't have 60 to 80 pages now.

Am I the only one that misses the old, interesting game threads?

I hope his Yankie a** is out on the recruiting trail trying to find us a new coach.

Towards the end of the game, the SECNet announcers took a subtle eye wink jab at Bielema's use of PB&Js to feed his players during halftime.

Ah, now we know why his players support him 100 percent.  What other coach would give them peanut butter and jelly sammich's at halftime?

This is what I was thinking.  At my former position, if I felt I needed to fire someone (this happened less than 5 times), I kept my distance for a week or more so that I could be objective.  I had an open door policy and grew close to my employees, so if I continued to speak with them each day, it would have made the dismissal more difficult for both of us.

I truly believe that if they miss a bowl game, and it seems they will, that Bret will be removed.

122 ranked defense after 3 years.  We have no [CENSORED] shot whatsoever, and to say we do is delusional man.  If he was anything more than a great OC, his defense would have improved.  He's no head coach.

I agree.  I mean, what could he say?  There's nothing he could say that wouldn't draw an epic eye roll from the fanbase.

My goodness, he's not actually a Yankee (by definition). He's from Ohio. Yankees are from New England. Ohio is not northeastern.

On the 3rd and Long segment that he does with the game coverage every week, he talked about how the back half of the season set up much easier than the first half and how we were poised to go on a run and have a "successful" season.

I know he has to be positive in those things, but it is clear that he doesn't get Arkansas tradition or history.  Just five years ago we were back to the spot where we had been through most of the 60s, 70s, and 80s and to where we had dreamed about returning to ever since.  We were highly ranked and wondering and hoping we could break through to the very top.  Now, we got the guys in charge who want to define a season as "successful" if we back into some half assed bowl game in Shreveport or Memphis.

Best comment over the weekend! For all the Long Lovers please explain what's so great about him? I already know what you will say, "he's a great fund raiser, just look at all our wonderful facilities!" You do realize with three Fortune 500 companies literally in his back yard, one of which is #1 it's not to hard getting them to donate, right? Jeff Long's additude about winning is reason enough to let him go when his contract is up. I'm convinced we have a lot of qualified people within our own state's boarder that could easily do his job and demand success.

Well 911, I am sure you should get a response.  Looks like midnight on Monday morning marks the start of Long's Work-Sudy group.  I especially love the the Graphical Displays and Statistical trend charts in the "Jeff Long's Contract" thread.  That is awesome.  I know all of us on HV spend our days and nights in the Forum working on Excel, designing those beautiful charts and graphs.  It's like somebody handed them a PowerPoint Presentation for the BOT or something.  That's freakin awesome!

I believe this to be true.  I don't want Long in the public right now.  He would have to throw support at Bielema and we don't need or want that.

He is not on Twitter because he takes an unmerciful beating whenever he sticks his head up over there.  People just rail on him.
