Breached Bielema buyout agreement could be costly

It isn’t personal.

It is all business.

The Razorback Foundation believes that Bret Bielema failed to meet the requirements for his buyout.

They have asked the $4.2 million paid him be repaid to the Foundation.

Bielema wants to keep that money and receive the remaining $7.6 million while working as a defensive line coach for the New England Patriots for $150,000, far below the market value of an assistant in the NFL.

That is the maximum he’s allowed to make (it was previously reported as $50,000) without it coming out of his monthly check of $320,833.
