I don't think Chesire's saying that at all. I think he's just saying that if the same thing happened at Bama, you'd see the same battle going on in that fan base as in ours.
I agree with this. I'm certain our fanbase would be divided just as Arky's is IF it was Saban. If it was a coach who had never won the division and the embarrassment to the university outweighed the positives he'd done for the university (which is the case with Petrino & likely wouldn't be with Saban) then we'd want that coach gone too.
Most Bama fans would probably want to keep Saban but would want to fire a coach with Petrino's resume (i.e. Mike Price).

Yeah what would happen if it came out that Bear Bryant was having an affair?

Arkansas also doesn't have 13 national titles. He is the best coach we have had in 25 years and whoever we get to replace him won't be nearly as good.

Funny Bama fans are funny. Your boy Nick just hasnt been caught. I got enjoyment at watching Nick smile like a possum when he was chatting with the young ladies at LSU.
IMO, Petrino is just as good as Nick on the opposite side of the ball. If Arky could put 2-3 top 5 recruiting classes together with him there, they would be in the NC mix. Especially if he found a DC like Chavis.

Are you nuts? We didn't fire Dubose for his affair until he started losing. The only division our fan base would have is whether to give Saban another motorcycle. Dude can do what he wants except maybe murder somebody. Petrino should have the same discretion.
