re: Arkansas should let Petrino go and move on

I shouldn't be amazed by it because of the world we live in today but I can't help myself but feeling sorry for those that will justify behavior like Petrino's just for the sake of the almighty dollar. You will try to hang on to a proven scumbag like Petrino because you feel some superiority to consistent third place finishes. You will also jeopardize the integrity of the university over a football coach.

I don't think anyone will justify his actions but it is just reality. College football is a business. All of these teams are paying players while the NCAA looks away. Every business in the world does a financial analysis when a big time revenue generator does something this dumb. Integrity only matters in business when the lack of it will lead to financial loss. It really doesn't justify anything but it is reality. If Petrino is fired, then someone is calling his agent really quickly.
