imagine a professor that is accused of having sexual misconduct with a student or a dept supervisor accused of sexual harrassment.
There was no sexual misconduct with a student. Dorrell was no longer in school during the time of their relationship. There was also no sexual harassment; their relationship was mutual.
Petrino cheated on his wife, gave a job to his mistress, and lied to the University about his relationship with Dorrell and the circumstances of his motorcycle crash. Legally speaking, Bobby showing favoritism to his love interest is hardly different than showing favoritism to his brother or son in giving them jobs.
What Bobby did was horribly unethical and stupid, but as far as legal risks to Arkansas or future legal risks to other Universities who hire him, I just don't see it.
I bet there will be a handful of decent to top schools that will give Petrino serious consideration b/c his ability to win may be good enough to outweigh his baggage. It's just up to each individual athletic director and school to determine how much baggage they're willing to carry in order to increase their odds of winning.

The OP's analogy really isn't valid at all.

The defense rests your honor. Obviously you dont know the law....it isnt consentual or mutual when a supv and an employee is involved
