I appreciate you guys providing those stats and explanations. I'm not here to stir shite. I want the best coach just like everybody else. I just dont understand the fanbase wanting Freeze or Petrino, but automatically shun Gus. I mean, come on lol.

The primary advantage of Petrino over Malzahn?
Cost and replaceability.
Gus Malzahn will want $7m per year, a large buyout and will be here a minimum of 5 seasons. 5 seasons that I expect would have a record around .500 with a 9-4 being his ceiling.
Bobby Petrino would cost us $1m to $2m with a small buyout and would be easy to replace without a dramatic ordeal. I expect he would also finish with about the same record as Gus, perhaps better.
Petrino is better with less talent than Gus is. I don't think that Gus can handle our situation talent wise.
Now.. I don't particularly want either one of them. A younger guy who has a chance to actually build the Arkansas program is what's needed.
