I honestly don't care what Petrino did. I like the Falcons and do pull for them, but i'm not pissed at him for leaving during the season(even though I think it is wrong to do that). Now if he had done that to the Cowboys I would hate his fricking guts

Jerry Jones is really the only reason we have Petrino. Auburn's in a wad because he did not want to be their coach. Can not blame him who in their right mind would want to recruit against Saban in the same state? The man can coach and can recruit, you do not win 2 National Championships at two different schools within the SEC if you are not a great coach.

The story I got from someone I trust on this subject goes something like this:

We put feelers out about Petrino and were led to believe he was not interested, so we moved on. Next, we were having very serious discussions with Kiffin and his people, and were on the verge of offering him. At the last minute a call came that alerted our people that Petrino was indeed interested. He asked that we hold off until the end of the NFL season, but we said we had to have a coach NOW because of recruiting. Basically, it was "the job is yours but you have to take it right now." So, he took it.
