Petrino - not riding solo (and fired at Louisville)

Sounds like Bobby Petrino and a blonde careered into a ditch.

It worked out well for Alabama keeping Dubose after his affair.

Takes look at Arky's records before Petrino
Takes look at Arky's records under Petrino

And y'all think he'll get canned for this? Hell, he might get a raise.

I guess they learned lesson based on the quick exit of Mike Price

I'm guessing none of the people having a gay old time on this thread are the same ones who were bashing the Gawker guy for a far more innocuous supposition about Chris Jones and his wife. It is pretty sick, celebrating people who are destroying a couple's wedding guest book. Not defending Petrino. At the same time, if he was fooling around on his wife, why would his cover story contend that he was at a lake house WITH his wife (if I'm reading that correctly, anyway)? Seems that would've tipped her off. People have all sorts of reasons to lie, starting with the fact that an admission that he was joy-riding with a 25-year-old blonde on a motorcycle would have prompted internet discussions such as this. Maybe he wanted to avoid the appearance of impropriety. Maybe he was hoping that they were on the way to some impropriety and felt guilty. Maybe the girl asked him not to reveal that she was with him because she knew how it would look.

Or maybe they were banging each other's brains out behind their significant others' backs. Point is, no way in hell is there definitive enough evidence to justify the mocking of a 25-year-old woman who is not a public figure, particularly not on a message board that is supposed to be a gathering place for professional, responsible journalists.

Chris Jones is an icon and Bobby Petrino is a 2nd rate football coach.

I found this gem on Big Lead Sports:

Just last Tuesday, the Razorbacks named Dorrell the new “student-athlete development coordinator for football.” What in the hairy hell does that mean, one might ask? Well her duties include handling on-campus recruiting and working with incoming players on eligibility issues. She’ll also “be the point person for official and unofficial recruiting visits.” Sounds like a wonderful opportunity, but all I can think of is the threesome from “He Got Game.”

Here’s Petrino’s quote about the grand addition of Dorrell:

“Jessica Dorrell will be a great addition to our football program. As a former student-athlete she has an enthusiasm for the Razorbacks and is familiar with what the University of Arkansas can offer. She is extremely organized and has a professional approach, which should translate well into our program and recruiting as we continue to place an emphasis on this area.”

Seems kind of odd that a football coach would give a quote for a release announcing such a minor position (something that sounds like it was created) - odd enough that there was a release at all.
What is someone with an MBA doing working as a recruiting coordinator? Just seems like she could be of more use elsewhere in the athletic department.

Not that strange at all. She was a direct report to him.

You left out the "not winning enough games" part.

Eh, that's probably KT doing his usual good job. Imagine he's got a lot going through his mind right now.

It is a fucking message board, nobody is writing a story.
