Like listening to a football scientist compared to Pittman aka “ah shucks”. Any chance Petrino becomes head hog again?

Here we go with this crap....

Dude, Let it ride. I am appreciative of Pittboss willingness to attempt to correct his mistakes since taking us to 9 wins. He is determined to do better, in stead of taking the millions and going to the lake.

I do not want BP back as HC until both have proven something... BOTH!

Any chance we won’t have to hear this asked a gazillion times before next season?

Doubtful

By far going to be the worst part about this hire.

Just let the men do their jobs and see how it goes. Cross that bridge when we come to it. It does nothing but put unnecessary strain on the current situation until otherwise.

It is the idea situation with petrino focusing on the offense and someone else focusing on recruiting, roster management, media relations, fundraising, etc.

Petrino is a good offensive coach, he is a bad program manager.

The wheels constantly fall off in year 4/5 of Petrino's programs where roster management and recruiting first starts to show itself. Happened at Louisville twice, happened here, it even happened at Missouri state.

Sam let's his coordinators do pretty much whatever they want with their side of the ball, so you can get the best out of the coordinators without having to deal with the worst of good coordinators who are bad managers.

Pitt is able to attract better position coaches than petrino was, at Louisville every relative in the coaching world was on his staff. If Pitt fires Kennedy this week he can show performance matters above personal relationships or loyalty to assistants, but the issue here is petrino will work with whomever not demand the offensive staff is filled with his guys...

Sam said there would more changes in the staff. Good to have a coach who wants improvement.

Going to be interesting when we inevitably improve. We'll see who gets the credit for winning. Hopefully we don't have a Roger Waters/David Gilmour situation on our hands.

Bobby had a weak coaching staff because he was the brain of everything that went on. He was probably a strict micromanager.

Sam needs an above average staff as he is an idiot in comparison to Petrino.

He was an absolute nerd when it came to the game.

Petrino must not have been too much of a bad program manager, leaving Bert talent for only him to waste it in his first three years.

Pittman saying we don’t poach players from other teams like other teams do probably upset some people.

My opinion, poaching players would be detrimental to relationships in the coaching circles. Right wrong or indifferent

Not saying you’re wrong, I actually tend to agree that we should be poaching players. It’s a business now. Adapt with the times or die. Maybe Petrino can bring some of the poaching philosophy from A&M to here.

Also seeing Petrino choke up when he talked about watching the players after he left caught me off guard. His heart is in the right place coming back here, Pittman said as much when he said Petrino loved Arkansas.

It's stupid not to when everyone else is doing it without a second thought. Kinda like not getting heavily involved with NIL (you can fight for reform while still playing the game). Freaking dinosaurs.

I told myself after this season I was no longer going to buy in on the off/preseason hype ever again.

But dammit if I’m not going to be lured in again. Especially if we domino in the portal.

Mission accomplished.

Disagree on this but by no means disagree with everything you stated - we should definitely enjoy the ride. “Samalitics”, not taking action with Enos to adapt offense to personnel, no improvement for in-game management, etc… Sam is lazy and coasting. I’d bet anything that by the time he stated “I didn’t know what to do.” Yuracek et. al took the reins and so far made the best offseason hire out of any school and tailored it based on our unique situation. We will fill seats, we have a business continuity plan if we suck in that fact and we have a proven HC ready to go who can more than likely simply coach us into a bowl game almost every year with the potential to do more. Pittman looked completely pissed when they panned to him multiple times during the Duke game. I have no respect for him and I don’t care if Bobby is our HC ever again but I hope that Yuracek whispered this into Pittman’s ear “Remember when you came in and said that you weren't looking to fleece us and wanted to fix the program and retire here and then hired Jimmy Sexton the moment that he had any bargaining chip and then proceeded to stop trying and say ‘I didn’t know what to do.’ in a post game presser? You’ll now do exactly what you’re told.” He backed his smarter AD into a corner and got cucked.

He looked like Pittman, I saw a few times in the broadcast where he was laughing, smiling... I guess we look for differnt things. Plus he presser today was Great.

You seem to use the "cuck" thing fairly often... if I remember correctly. Dude!
