Bret Bielema sends letter to principal of 4-star recruit

Arkansas coach Bret Bielema is all about class.
At least that’s what he wants the principals of recruits to believe, apparently.
Michael Lee, who is the principal at Clak-Chalkville High School in Alabama, received an “inspirational message” in the form of a letter from the Arkansas football coach.
You see, Lee’s school is where you’ll find four-star WR Nico Collins attending class.
He’s the top rated player in the state of Alabama and No. 67 player in the 2017 recruiting class, according to the 247Sports composite rankings.
Here’s a look at the letter Bielema sent Lee in what has to be classified as an attempt to earn his favor in the recruiting process:

Let’s just hope that Principal Lee doesn’t get on Google tonight and get the wrong idea about videos from Bielema discussing “erotic” football victories and “hopping on the wife” after big wins.
