I do not want this man running our program. He doesn’t have a stacked recruiting class out of Arkansas to make his team out of. He will flounder out and fail.
He’s a good coach if everything is going well, but when adversity becomes too much he’ll just quit or check out. Overall smart football mind but terrible leader for your program.
He left our program in a terrible position, and for having one of the best players of our generation at QB he went 8-5, 9-4, 8-5. He won one bowl game during is second tenure, and won a whole 2 games his final year. Unless you’re getting Lamar Jackson 2.0 you can expect pretty mediocre at best ngl
Go look at r/razorbacks and you’ll feel like you’ve wandered into an insane asylum. Everyone there wants him to be the head coach again just because he had 2 good seasons 15 years ago.
Have you considered that firing the man over a minor HR violation created a curse that has put Arkansas in the wilderness for 14 years, and that hiring him will break the curse?
Lol, it wasn't the HR violation that got him it was lying to his boss about it.
But to be clear, the "minor" HR violation involved the highest paid state employee in Arkansas creating a hostile workplace when he committed textbook sexual harassment by fast tracking the hiring of his mistress to a direct report job over more qualified candidates while at the same time giving her special benefits thereby placing the university and state at significant financial risk.

Has anyone considered that The Bobby Petrino Revenge TourTM may actually be against his own team?
