I thought the interwebz was the devil. A bunch of zeros and ones that somehow always result in 666 through mathematical trickery.

Cant have him ineligible once he gets here in the summer.

DGB=Arky Lock

I don't think it's a huge deal because DGB was just at Arkansas but I do think the Arky fans are in the spin cycle with some of the comments. Seeing that Mack is coming in tonight, no way they don't want Petrino to be able to get the last word.

He isn't going to get the last word regardless because DGB is taking his last OV to Mizzou this weekend.

Did you read the last part of the article? The one from DGB's dad about people reading too much into things?
I would like to take credit right now for starting that whole said he would "have to go" thing.
ETA: It was really just and observation and joke with the missouri fans.

I'm not really sure what you think the "situation" is here. All this means is BP can't do a final in home. It's not like we are going to get punished for this or anything.
Did you miss the part about this happening during a quiet or dead period when off-campus contact is forbidden? Having in-person contact with him in San Antonio was the recruiting violation. Petrino's probably not doing the in-home so UA can say they've already punished themselves when they self-report the violation.

DGB is already a silent commit to the Hogs so it matters not whether Petrino will be there Thursday. DGB and family have visited with Petrino on numerous occasions so they know who he is and how well he can develop players for the NFL.

The "situation" may be a perception of bad ethics. DGB's family is pretty religious. Their perception of this situation could be deal breaker. Probably not, though. He'll probably be a hog next week. Now cue the Pinkel DWI ethics comparison...
I'll drink to that.

So you know exactly the circumstances of the contact? Was it in a parking lot? An alley? A restaurant? Star gazing on the RIverwalk? Did Petrino tell DGB to look through the window of the bar, so he could see Pinkel doing shots off of Yost's belly? Was Mack Brown in the bathroom changing his Depends when he overheard DGB and Petrino talking at the urinals? Did they watch Stoops lose a 'big game' of poker together? What happened? Do tell.

I love a good Stoops joke.

I don't know anything more than what's in the article, but the fact that Petrino's staying home because of this shows that he thinks what happened in San Antonio was sufficient to count as a recruiting contact/visit. Had Petrino just said "Hi. Can't talk. Bye." then I'm sure he'd still go on the visit. Obviously more than that occurred.
Regardless, you Hog fans keep saying that there's no violation as long as Petrino stays away today, which is true, but that's not all that the article said. Petrino had in-person contact with DGB sometime between January 4 and 12, which is a violation because that's a dead/quiet period. Your head coach screwed up in San Antonio and that's what you should be worried about.

There's nothing to worry about. Arkansas is calling it a bump, DGB's family is calling it a bump. Not the first time this sort of thing has happened in the SEC. At best it is a secondary violation which is almost an obligation to get each year in the SEC. Arkansas is punishing itself by not letting Petrino go when in all reality he probably could still go because the whole bumping in to him thing is such a grey area and would be tough for the NCAA to prove.
