re: Will Petrino ever coach in the SEC again ?

This. Both are slimeballs, but Pearl is at the very least a likeable one who has a personality and knows how to use the media. Petrino is simply an a-hole whom almost all people genuinely dislike and distrust.

Plus, and this is most important, Pearl's baggage isn't as mountainous as Petrino's. Petrino's left three jobs on very public and very nasty terms, and left his last one after a year, which goes against the "disingenuous drifting job hopper" label he battles constantly on the recruiting trail. It's tough enough to recruit when parents think you're a tPOS in your personal life, but it's nearly impossible when you throw in the fact that they can be relatively certain you won't be there for the duration of your kid's college career. Just look at his recruiting at Louisville to see what he's up against -- Strong had them in good position and then they started hemorrhaging star recruits after Petrino was hired.

Petrino's got a long history of distrustful shite on his record.

All I know about Bruce is that he gave a bbq, invited some recruits and lied about it to the ncaa investigator. Whatelse has Bruce done top put him in the "slimeball" category?
