Good news is RickB hasn't given up on football.  He is still living the misery with all of us.

Quote from: BleedinRed on Nov 01, 2025, 09:00 PMIt's a new era of college football now.  That's what everyone says.  NIL has changed everything.  As a result, all those stats you cite are outdated and not relevant.  Or maybe not, who knows. 

like I said in the next coach thread, no one truly proven wants to touch our program.  I've resigned myself that we will suck for 5-6 years and then repeat the process.  Based on how our fans think, the program will never be successful. 

that's okay.  I've got 30-40 years left.  Once I die the Razorback fandom in my house dies too. 

Agree. Football is different today than it was just 5 years ago. Those that are great at talent evaluation and X's and O's should do well.

True, it is a brand new era. BP is from the old era, we need a new era coach.

Who is a new era coach that would come here that would guarantee better results than Petrino?

If there is one out there, sure hire him.

Most of the top 25 coaches are from the old era.

Look, you're going to get your wish.  BP needs to win the last theee games to even have a chance.  Not happening.  So, we will hire a guy who no one has heard of and 6 years from now we will do it again. 

I just want to beat Texas now.  That would be so choice.

And there in lies the problem. Who will come here? Even if money were no object, who would really want to come into this shit show? I feel we will end up with another fossil that will only come for the retirement package we will hand out.
Well, shit...

What results do you think BP guarantees? As I posted earlier, he's 2-13 in his last 15 P4 games. Do any of you think that any P4 school is going to be calling on him for a HC job?

It will be a gamble no matter who we get, that's true. But that's true of most coaching hires anywhere. But I'd like to take a chance on someone who hasn't reach their peak yet. But tha's just me, y'all can continue to live in the past if you want. The Petrino of 2011 is long gone.

Petrino is the best and only choice. He wants the job.

"That's embarrassing.  Looks like Josh Duggar when his parents asked him to babysit."

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

I guess I lean on Petrino at least won big here when he had talent. If we got him better, I think he can do it again.

I'm trying to hang my hat on something other than hope. That's all I've got in these G5 coaches.

My concern as well.

Petrino was down the list before the last two weeks. Grow the fuck up. 2011 is ancient history.

Yeah, that's it. Except the exact opposite. Grow up Peter Pan. I know a lot of thumpers. Was always way down the list.
