Slash and Burn Rubber – Petrino Rides Again

As you’re aware, the Pitt Boss is out as the head coach in Fayetteville, with Bobby Petrino apparently committing enough mea culpas to be named interim. Also, it’s been publicized that he is strongly interested in the head coach position, and would like to be considered. To show his commitment to improving the program, Petrino is already rolling heads at Arkansas.

They may want to heavily monitor his hiring practices to ensure that no former volleyball players are named as analysts for his new staff.

Man, how time and losing seems to heal all wounds. Keep that in mind when pondering what a post-Kirby Smart coaching staff may look like when Smart decides to hang it up.

  1. With the proliferation of staffs these days, he could probably stuff 2 or 3 side pieces in there, all in separate departments and they might never meet!

  2. How does one replace three defensive staff members in the middle of the season? Analysts already on staff? And what are the portal rules in this situation?

    Crazy that the AD let this happen (to say nothing about the whole Bobby return).

    • Bobby Petrino is one of the few people who can make Urban Meyer look virtuous by comparison. The fact that he is even employed in a university setting, not to mention once again a head coach, is so exceedingly f-ed up I can’t even come up with the words.

  3. The day UGA hires a POS like that to lead our program is the day I check out. Aside from the horrible conduct at Arkansas, he also secretly interviewed for a college job during the season that was not open and quit on the Falcons in the middle of a season that was going poorly to take another job. Arkansas deserves every bit of criticism the and inevitable embarrassment from this hire.

  4. Zero lack of integrity from the Arkansas president and AD. There are so many deserving assistant coaches to be considered. Take Schumann or Bobo…please.

    /sarcasm font on the last bit.

  5. You go from Pittman to Petrino. Talk about the pendulum swinging WAAAAAY far in the other direction.

    BobbyP: Did someone say ‘swinging’? [revs motorcycle]

  6. Does anyone remember some conspiracy theories about this whole motorcycle wreck business? Like she didn’t get hurt because she wasn’t on the bike and it was her boyfriend who actually attacked Bobby after finding out about the affair. Or something like that.

  7. I feel really bad for the Pitboss. That said Freeze and Petrino back as Head Coaches in the SEC. The matrial just writes itself. It’s like comedy manna.

  8. Kirby please throw enough money to the Pit Boss to make him come back to Athens. Oh and stop hiring assistants that can recruit but can’t coach.
