Not just that, but he was the first person they called.
The whole time Kragthorpe was there, the AD and Krags was blaming the mess on Petrino, the AD was apologetic towards Krags when they hired Strong.
Petrino offered an entire HS team schollys a few months back, his recruiting has gotten to point where it is that bad.

Wait, Arkansas doesn't have a basketball practice facility?
Are they the last SEC team to get one?

We will have this time next year.
It is only a problem around graduation and the Wal-Mart share holders meeting (one week), that is the only time BWA isn't available to the players at a time during the day.
The HPER is basically right next door with a couple courts, but it isn't what you would want your players doing instead of working on fundamentals, IMO (pick up games). The team use to get a court in the HPER for practices when needed and BWA/Barnhill wasn't available.

I know this is the common thought. Petrino leaves a mess everywhere. Regarding Louisville, although I love Tom Jurich, remember that Kragthorpe was Tom's best man in his wedding. He was trying to take heat off his friend and coach. Any objective observer would have to admit that Kragthorpes 1st team had a TON of talent. He had a bunch of players on that team go on to play in the NFL. Even some that are still playing (Starting RT on Super Bowl champs this year). Eric Wood has started since the first day he got to the NFL and continues to. He had Brian Brohm stay for his senior year. He had a lot of talent on both sides of the ball. Year 2 is harder to defend, but Krags first year had a ton returning and was ranked in top 5 preseason. They struggled from day one on both sides of the ball and were lucky to get bowl eligible. I said it at the time. That wasn't on Petrino.

Hell, even UGA has one of those and we're middle of the road at best.
