Razorback fans with sharp eyes might have noticed former Chicago Bears head coach Dave Wannstedt arriving with Bret Bielema for Saturday's second spring scrimmage. If so they probably were asking,  "What's up with that?"

"I've known Bret for a long time," Wannstedt told the Razorback Nation. "Robb Smith (Arkansas' defensive coordinator) and I worked together last year at Tampa. Randy Shannon (Arkansas' linebackers coach), I recruited him and coached him at Miami. I coached him at the Cowboys and he was on my staff at the Dolphins and then Jeff Long, obviously I knew him from Pittsburgh."

But there is more to Wannstedt's visit than old home week. Bielema has put him to work.

Maybe Wannstedt can bring us some of that same magic he brought to Pitt.

How about the magic he brought to Miami and Dallas?

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

Dripping with sarcasm, but he's a really good DC. Pitt had some very stout defenses during his tenure (5th in 2007, 8th in 2010 in total defense; 2008 and 2009 were not as good but still top-30 and 2009 was 15th in Scoring defense).

Don't misunderstand.  Wannstedt has not been hired for anything.

or perhaps make you want to shake their head, repeatedly, in a very hard fashion.
