Yep, get Pittmans overall record under 500 next year, the buyout gets cut in half, and voila!

Petrino looking at Pittman “look at me, look at me, I’m the captain now”

Petrino and The Hill

Brings a sense of symmetry to the SEC. Bobby P getting bounced off the bike and out of Arky was the best Welcome to the SEC moment for A&M and then Mizzou.

Now, over a decade later, Petrino finds his way back to Fayetteville just as two more schools are entering the SEC.

He’s a natural bookend.

Petrino is washed, but I'm not sure you could look worse on offense than you did this year.

It also sets precedent for Texas hiring Chris Beard again. So thanks.

Not to mention it strongly undermines the current HC… but maybe that’s the point?


Sam needs someone with legit HC experience to lean on. He clearly still doesn't know what the frick he's doing on Saturdays.

This may turn out to be a shitshow, but it'll be exciting nonetheless.

Integrity goes a LONG way.

Petrino and Fisher got along under far more dire circumstances, at least publicly.

If it’s a shite show, you’ll never see it.

Everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE, was waiting for a massive nuclear explosion that never materialized. Y’all will be fine.

Bobby P has no balls if he doesn’t roll into work first day back on a Harley

Correction; y’all continue to look like idiots.


I mean we're not paying $26k/day to be rid of a coach who had a winning SEC record at that point and then turning around and hiring a dude that was .500 in the abnormally shitty ACC...but sure we're definitely the idiots of this conference.

Petrino improved the A&M offense from 101th in the nation in 2022 to 53th in 2023.

Since then Jeff Long got fired and would have been fired again had he not resigned first at Kansas.

That doesn't tell the whole story. They went from like 74th to 21st in OF+.

He worked miracles

Petrino can coach up Pittman on how to be a better coach during these games.
