What would Arkansas fans have thought about this rule when Petrino was coach?

We would have supported it, because tBeacon's foremost concern is player safety.

The real question is: why are Auburn fans so cavalier about the way their coach places so many young men in danger with the way he coaches his teams?

Arkansas didn't run the HUNH under Petrino. Also, Petrino didn't run the Meerkat offense with Mallet because Mallet could read defenses and audible the Hogs into the right play most of the time.

However, when Wilson was under center he couldn't read defenses nearly as well as Mallet so Petrino utilized the Meerkat offense which I despise. QBs should be able to audible without looking to the sidelines and teams using that technique either has a QB incapable of making the right audible or they don’t trust the QB to make the right call. Either way it’s a lazy way out for the coaches.
