FAYETTEVILLE -- Bret Bielema is unashamedly old school when it comes to player discipline and the inside-out approach of assembling a winning college football team.
Yet Arkansas' third-year coach may be as cutting edge as they come in terms of player safety and innovative practice strategies.
Bielema let it be known a couple of weeks before the start of camp that his Razorbacks had progressed to the point that two-a-day practices, that age-old practice of grinding it out in the sun that conditioned and toughened football players for three weeks prior to the first game week, might wind up being optional for his Hogs this summer.
