Seeing the way he's handled the repeated embarrassing shortcomings of BB and MA, vs. the rampant success and one humiliating personal oversight of BP, it makes me wonder what kind of hatred Long held toward Petrino on a personal level. I wish I knew what kind of things Bobby was apparently saying and doing to JL or other important people to make so quickly him pull the trigger on the only good coach we've had since Hatfield. It's ridiculous how different the standard seems to be.

I used to be a huge fan of Long until Bielema's retarded and confusingly advantageous contract. Then I sort of became neutral toward him. If Anderson turns out to make the tournament only one time in six years (second round at that), then he has become a clear-cut liability in my eyes.

Arkansas collegiate sports are the only major homebrewed sports we have. The level of blase attitude we're all beginning to feel toward football and basketball is surreal. The entire state is beginning to realize they'd rather quit cold turkey and do without than be subjected to the troll-like levels of bad decisions that are being displayed.

Probably because the legal team at Arkansas informed him that his only option was to fire Petrino. There was no other choice.

Truth be told, Jeffrey was intimidated by Bobby and was scared to death when he had to fire him.

Bobby was a dick to everyone, including Jeff Long.

Long is a puss and gets bullied by alpha types. He needs to find his balls and start holding these coaches (Bert, MA, DVH, Dykes, etc) feet to the fire and DEMAND excellence in the win loss category.

Yeah, but Petrino was a meanie and Jeffie likes butterflies and rainbow farts that Burt emits throughout the building.
