So from what I've gathered from Arkansas fans
Arkansas is a better job than UF
Arkansas is an easier school to win at than UF
Arkansas is an easier school to recruit at than UF
Arkansas can pay more money than UF


Is there anything that I'm missing?


I can assure you that Arkansas is not an easier school to win at, easier to recruit for, or that it can pay as much as UF. Maybe match.

But what I can say, is that it may be a "better job" subjectively, for Bobby Petrino. No one really knows. It's hard to judge what his thoughts are on Fayetteville, on his recruiting pipeline, on his relationship with the AD, etc. There's more that goes into taking a job than "where can I recruit the best talent."

Regardless, Arkansas is a place where he (and Broyles, and Holtz, and Hatfield, and Nutt) have shown that winning is possible. Whether he'd prefer to stay over going to Florida, only he (and probably his agent) knows.

winning is 'possible' anywhere.

please take note that Ark has 4 FOUR Star recruits for 2011.

Florida has twice that.

thus it is, and thus it will always be.

but you can win with 3 stars, see Boise and Louisville.

YOu just cant win year in year out in the SEC with 3 star guys.

REmember, Ark needed Mallet to transfer from Mich due to the change in emphasis in MIch.
NO Mallet and we would not be hearing that Petrino is interviewing.
