[Doomsday]

Who could blame him?

smart move by Petrino

ESPN radio is reporting that Petrino will resign with the Falcons and then accept the head coaching job with the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Okay, that's fairly big news. I'd think he'd wait to see how Michigan or LSU pan out.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Wow... Arkansas stepping up to the plate!

I wonder if this will encourage Felix Jones to stay in school...

 

[Big Dakota]

After hearing Blank last night, this is a real shocker. If true, he obviously hates the NFL.

Let the JG rumors begin...

No way. This makes room for Mike Zimmer to become head coach of Atlanta.

 

[Cajuncowboy]

Blank's been Sabanized

Arkansas should do well with Petrino. He did a good job at Louisville and they really went down hill once he left even though they still had their same starting QB and WRs.

Funny thing is that I fully expect Zimmer to be the interim coach.

Championship.

I didn't think he'd last long in Atlanta, but I thought he'd make it a couple of seasons.

NFL owners might want to start questioning the hiring of coaches from the college ranks.

 

[Avery]

Atlanta is a mess.

 

[trickblue]

That's a big signing for Arkansas if it comes to fruition...

Arkansas has plenty of talent in state but hasn't had a competent coach in years...

Not on this one -- horrible stuff happened that was out of Petrino's control. Nobody can blame him for leaving.

More Vick collateral damage

has any single player ever taken an entire franchise down with him?
