Jeremy Johnson, Sean White, and Jarret Stidham as QB.

All QBs that would be better under Petrino than Malazahn.

The SEC hasn't been that great in that time period - furthermore he is coaching with far less talent across the board

My assumption as to why coaches don't rat each other out is this (at least one applies to every coach):

1. They don't want to be viewed as a rat by anyone, especially recruits. So there's no real advantage there.
2. They're probably doing something shady themselves.

So here we are. Calipari runs amok because Coach K and others that know his scheme don't want to rat him out because of the above.

It will take a disgruntled assistant or an outsider to bring them down.

Serious question, but what law did he break exactly? Being immoral with a side piece isn't illegal.

state hiring laws. Long had to sign shite and put his name on the line so that Petrino could hire said side-piece without going through proper interview process, job postings, etc, as well as setting her salary.

shite that the Arkansas Legislature would use to beat the shite out of the UA at every turn and would've gotten Jeffy shitcanned. Ergo, he shite canned BP. self preservation.

We can just give him Holly's Harley and have him here by the end of the week

If he can take random black man Lamar Jackson and give him the heisman, then Gitmo might go down as the goat

Lamar Jackson was a 3* and the 396th best player in the country coming out of high school that has blossomed under Harley Bob's tutelage.
And now he's a Heisman Trophy caliber QB who plays for a team that gets blown out by Houston and LSU (with Orgeron as HC) and loses to 5-6 Kentucky.

Maybe Petrino is still some brilliant QB whisperer, but his teams always underperform in the W/L department, which is the one that counts.

I wouldn't want him as HC even if he wasn't an unreliable jerk (he is).

I could absolutely see him jumping to UT or Ole Miss.

Ole Miss isn't going to hire a coach who had an affair after they fired a coach who had an affair with prostitutes.

Not to mention, he probably would not want the job

He was 21-5 at Arkansas his last two years when the SEC West was an absolute juggernaut and took our shite program to the sugar bowl.

WTF are you talking about? He's a top 5 coach when given the resources.

Besides, Ole Miss desperately needs linebackers. Petrino left Arkansas without a defense. His current team is giving up more yards and points now that Strong's recruits are moving on. Thanks, but no thanks.

Gus likely would have won the SEC with Lamar. Petrino < Gus

He is checking out volleyball rosters as we speak.
Seriously, without Jurich there, he will be a lot easier to get

The buyout reduction should tell you all you need to know about what the big wigs at Louisville think of the man.


It got reduced because the AD was fired. It's in his contract. Same as Pitino, if I heard correctly.
