Petrino took a paycheck to buy Jimbo another year.
Petrino took the opportunity to get back into big time college football. And it paid off. He's back in the club now. Initial shock of his return is in the past, and he's back in Fayetteville.
He was never gunning for Jimbo's job. He was gunning for Pittman's. A&M just helped get him in position. Jimbo could have paid him $1, and he would have taken it.

I never understood infatuation with Petrino. I think he’s solid but not a difference maker. most of his success was tied to talent at QB position. Without that he’s above average. Belichik got a lot of praise but has struggled post brady. Success of this hire comes down to who they get at QB.

That is exactly what happened. Petrino is a damn good talent evaluator and glad to see him back in the SEC. Petrino recruited Jaylen Henderson off the FRESNO STATE bench and has developed him into an SEC quality QB.
