I never said he would. I'm just saying that political reasons shouldn't be why he wouldn't.

Quote from: vegashog on Sep 30, 2025, 05:41 PMpetrino brought him in and the offensive staff is still together, he ain't leaving because pittman is gone.

1400 yards, 62%, 12/5, and 441 rushing yards and 2 more td.

bp isn't benching him.


Thank you, oh voice of reason.

Barring injury or something fluke we're ride or die with TG now, which is the way it should be because he's the best player on the field on our side.

No QB is perfect and Bobby's system demands a lot from them.

I think we forget some of the boneheaded plays Mallett made in 2010, namely in the loss to Bama.

Green is a darkhorse Heisman candidate for a reason (or he was before we imploded: they dont give those to teams with losing records)

Green probably gives us the best chance to win otherwise I figure Petrino would go to the KJ kid...but on the same token I can see him getting some reps if this thing continues to go tits up. Might as well work with the kid and potentially take him with you to the next stop.

Green is who he is. He's going to do something costly every single game.

Agreed. He has a lot of natural talent but his achilles heel is his mindset.

Rather than play to win, he plays not to lose...and there is a big difference between the two.

Green's mindset was exactly like his head coach. Playing not to lose.  He always tightened up in crunchtime and not a killer.  Our whole team under tits was like that.  It is how he was like 7-19 in one score games.  It is unlikely the loser stench of tits can be completely washed off the team with the remainder of the season, but who knows.

Can you imagine the culture shock?  ;D

Also, check out that vein sticking out. Man is in his element.

I'm just going to pretend April Fools Day 2012 didnt happen, and we've won 8-11 games a year for the last 12 years.

Hell, we were national champs.  Handed Saben his worst defeat of his career and Missouri hasn't beat us once.

Listening to all the podcasts and talking heads, they really hate Bobby... Nothing would thrill me more than for him to turn this thing around, win 4 games and get the gig just to stick to it these people!

I mean, he's set up for failure, and I don't see how he wins 4, I'm not sure I see 2 wins, but hearing these fools recharges all that "he's our asshole" hate fuel we had back in 2008-11.  I'm ready to be the villains of the SEC again.

I don't recall as much negativity about jim at his other stops. Including Louisville. Seems the media really doesn't like the Petrino - Arkansas connection.

I'll say this, I'm more intrigued to watch our game next week than any game in quite some time.

Yes.

You'll notice that all of these faggoty sports writers were all happy to lay upon us their friendly advice and tell us who would be a great fit for us over the last ten years.  "Oh he'd be a great fit yadda yadda..."  This same group of knobs told us that HDN was perfect and we couldn't do any better.

They shit all over us for hiring Petrion back in the day and here they are again telling us what's supposedly good for us.  We all know the reason and it's not b/c they're actually the Bible Brigade.

BMFP is a real, professional, hard-nosed coach who gets results.  They saw what happened before and they don't want the Hogs upsetting the happy little apple cart of Bama, UGA, Florida, and those Big12 dipshits.

Whether he pans out or not doesn't matter.  To them we are the rednecks and hillbillies who don't wear shoes and pound their cousins.  They want to keep us down and we can pound whomever we want b/c this is a free country.
I'm just a dark guy from a den of iniquity.

Don't go away mad.  Just go away.
