Grandpa Petrino Doesn't Give a Frick what you think....

[Borenutz]

I do wonder if Green or everyone for that matter, will have a shorter leash with Petrino calling the shots. I don't know if Sam was calling some of those personnel decisions or not based on spend, but wouldn't surprise me.

Hell, we found several decent players show up in the bowl game last year, so it wouldn't be too far fetched to think we have some guys down the bench that are looking to boost their status and play hard to earn a little more cash next year. Maybe we can get a little more out of them than one game before they portal.

If Petrino wins some games, he will be the coach.  I know he has money backing him.  That's why he got the majority of the NIL spend this year.

The power that brought him here did so to give him this shot.  That's what the infighting was about I'd guarantee.  But you either have money behind you, or your toast now.
Williams and the other coaches wives knew they were being left behind IMO. 

I laugh when people say Bobby can't be the head coach based on some rule.  That's not the way it is anymore. 

However,  we might have another person who gets even more money.  The game yesterday got a lot of attention.  Looking at it now, it was the best thing that ever happened to our program. 

Of all the names rumored, it won't be those.  It will be Bobby or another Cal type hire.

This is what that guy on Tardville was hinting at.  The money is motivated and someone is noticing.

it's all speculation at this point, but taking the word of some dude on nobville while the national guys are saying something else is... interesting.

was it porkatarian?

Nope, he said we didn't have the money to fire Sam.  It's either going to be Petrino or a pretty big hire.

i agree. it will be a big hire, and that includes bp if he's the one.

These posts always wind up being about as satisfying as a DVH Omaha run.

So do our coaching searches.

(sans Cal and Bobby...but the latter was almost twenty years ago)

We will make a big "splash" hire according to our AD and it will be the 2025 version of Jim Grobe

I predict you'll see a different Bobby Petrino. 

I just can't wait to see that evil grin one more time

[aaron]

I'll bet Mrs Pitt was the ringleader of the coaches wives bullshit.

[buff2.0]

If it's Lashlee then I'm officially done.  If it's Gus I'm officially done.  If it is anyone with SMU ties I'm done.  Jerry Jones influenced...done. 

I could give Lashlee a chance, depending on how the rest of the season goes and the staff he brings.  Right now he's 2-2, and if we bring in a coach from SMU after a .500 season I will nope right the fuck out of Arkansas football.

Oh Lord!  Lou Hotz was there! He is coming out of retirement.  He had on Hog clothes!  We are going to the Orange Bowl!

I'm just saying there is a lot of money support for Bobby in the state.  That's why he's here.  That's why Taylen Green is here.  Bobby gets what he wants, and will continue to get it, hell he just did.

He is getting his shot.  Our program isn't about Hunter Yurachek.  Or even the BOT.  Our program, and all programs now, are big boy playgrounds.  It doesn't matter about the Razorback Foundation either.  That's for the "poors" these days.

The only one I don't want, and we all agree, is Jerry calling shots.  No Lashlee.  It should be interesting to see who wins in the end. Won't be Tyson this time, but it will be a BIG hire.

We got Bobby in the first place, we followed up with a national name in Bielema (also a big hire) before the wheels came off.  The real story is what happened in 2018-2025?

We are a big job, whether these idiots who tell us it isn't say so or not, when our real money want it to be.  Cal proved that, and I don't know anything else, but I'm saying we're going to go all in.

My opinion, could be wrong, but it isn't.  We AT LEAST get Bobby.  That's huge in itself.

petrino is at arkansas because pittman asked him to come. bp said so himself.

there wasn't any big wig back room shit about his hire.

She was the last time around was she not?

Can we ban non-Woopig fans from having opinions on the coaching search?

The only thing Cal proves is that we are, indeed, a basketball school (and this was after Musselman re-established that after 20 years in the basketball wilderness).

There is no reason to believe that this translates to football or can be replicated in a football hire. We're not even 7th in potential in the SEC any more. Double that.

Are you saying that the last 12 seasons have squandered all momentum from BMFP's 21-5 run?
