What does 21-5 have to do with being blindsided by Petrino’s actions and totally unprepared for a coaching search?
The program wasn't in a shambles during the season. It was left in a shambles though when he forced the school to fire him for cause.
You have to look close at those 21 wins, who he got them from and who he lost to. While it was fun to win a lot against the mid tier teams, Bobby tend to lose against the physical teams, the teams you have to beat to win any real championship. It's why he never won the SEC and didn't when the Sugar bowl, he couldn't win the big games when it counted.
Plus, like all coaches like him he had no defense.. which is why he didn't win the big ones. In a way he is like Lincoln Riley, amazing offensive, shitty defensive.. and like OU, would blow teams out but when it counted would get beat.

I read an article about the BP’s Arkansas days, I think 2 years, he finished 2nd in offense in the SEC, in a time where defense’s were in charge. Was that reporter hype or truthful?
