I have no problem with this... CCM needs a bit of fire lit imho.
Take over play calling, get it straightened out. At least look respectable in those loses against lower level SEC teams and win the OOC games without any doubt.
Show some improvement or the fans are going to leave and so will he.

Absolutely!
That's not too much to expect.

fire Craddock, hire Bobby as OC
I wouldn't got that far. I'd like to see him hired as an offensive consultant though. The same way Bama does.
It would great to have his input on the offensive end.
BP always had an eye for a Ds weakness early in games.

What a moronic and and completely ridiculous comment. Your amazingly hypocritical "beady eyed" comment aside, your video game hypothetical isnt even close to the realm of plausibility.
And frick anyone who would take Petrino back as their head coach. Even if CCM cant hack it as HC, he will always get another chance somewhere else because he treats people with respect and builds relationships. Hence why the recruiting is improving and why if he only gets 3 years those 3 CCM years have way more EV than Petrinos tenure.
This whole revisionist Petrino fantasy bs is beyond stale. 2-10 in year 5 in the ACC. The whole schtick of "He might be a sob, but he can coach his arse off" is just fuel for the delusion and escapism necessary for some to be Hog fans right now. Tough times no doubt.
You're a fricking moron.

A lot of you aren't sold on the Chadster. Hell, I'm not sold on him either. But going back to Petrino is like going back to an abusive boyfriend. "He's changed! He said he was sorry and he really meant it this time!" bullshite. People like Petrino don't change. He screwed us once and he would do it again in a heartbeat.
He screwed us ? Where do you get that bullshite ? He screwed a volleyball player. As fans we got our money worth out of Bobby. So did the University. Sure he apologized. Bc that was the politically correct thing to do. As far as I'm concerned he didn't owe any apology. Jeff is the one who screwed the fanbase. By firing a coach who was catching fire in the SEC at Arkansas of all places then hiring fat frick Bert and giving him that huge buyout. You want to talk about being blind to the truth.
Yeah God forbid that we hire a coach who can take the talent we currently have and win 8 to 10 games for the next 4 years. That would be awful. And how do you know that Arkansas couldn't hire recruiters ? Just bc he failed to do it at Louisville doesn't mean that it can't be done here. You don't like Petrino. We get it. But everything else you say is based on assumptions. I doubt we would rehire him though. Bc Arkansas is loaded with hypocrites.

You could say that about any coach who has failed at a different school. Morris’ record at SMU is constantly harped on here.
Look at Chip Kelly. Just because they were a great offensive mind 5-10 years ago doesn’t mean they are the same coach now. Coaches run their course after a while. Louisville fans are much happier with Satterfield and are thrilled Petrino is gone.

I was about to say, it was a rather amazing bit of shooting his own point down. Next time I debate cheerful old Spaulding on something I'll just let him rebuttal himself a few times when he forgets what alt he is on.
Though I do want to address one point which I see people babble about incessantly.
No. Petrino did screw us and he did leave Long with no choice but to fire him. Getting a little side action? That wasn't the big problem. Hiring your mistress to a university job? That was the big problem.
You are not allowed to be getting freaky deaky with someone who works directly for you. That sort of thing opens the University up to any manner of legal actions against it. Not to mention that anyone who applied for the job she landed sure as hell has grounds to cry havoc and let slip the lawyers of war.
You can get upset. You can throw a temper tantrum. You can hold your breath till you turn blue. But any AD in the country is going to fire Petrino in that situation. In fact, other coaches around the country have been fired for doing exactly what he did.
Having a wild pecker may or may not get you canned. Hosing down someone who works for you? That will get you fired.

Agree 100%. I don't get these UA fans who 'smack on' Petrino. He won Bowl games, he had us ranked #3 in the BCS and up by 14 at LSU who was ranked #1 at the time. Hell, now we have to sweat out a win over Portland St and then Ole Miss slaps us around with Richie 'Valens' Rodriguez calling the plays at Oxford. I think Hog fans have gotten so used to losing they would rather lose and bitch rather than win and celebrate.

Jeff Long left that Arkansas team in shambles. There was no legal reason to fire Petrino. Besides, it was Long who gave his stamp of approval of the hiring of the harlot. I'm convinced the reason Long fired Petrino is for the simple reason that Petrino wouldn't produce the pictures. Legally, the UA was clear. Anyone who says Arkansas was subject to lawsuits by those who applied for the job but didn't get it doesn't have a clue about tort law.
