The Auburn-Arkansas game just got more interesting.

I hope for their sake they do not find out in three years that they fucked up.

Two years, max.
Still better than Hooten.

Deep down Tubbs fucking hates Petrino, That game should be a blood bath.

I hope this is true. I hope Tubs turns the offense loose on them. Maybe then we'll be able to score 14 on them next season.

I was at LSU TT's first year when he faked the FG and got the TD.
It was glorious.
I am still waiting for more fireworks like that. Granted, he has more talent now, but I'm sure most of us think that we are as close to three-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust as we need to be.
-
I really don't have a dog (or pig) in this hunt; I'm just happy that they did not get Butch Davis from the Tarheels who I heard they were courtin'. Too bad for the sorry-ass "Dirty Birds".
-
And the Dirty Birds are pissed about the whole thing. This has been all over Atlanta news the last 18 hours or so:

I'm not sure when this franchise is going to get their shit together for the long term.

Rome was on Blank's ass yesterday (Petrino's ass well, but made some strong points about Blank). Said that he's too good a business man to have whiffed on Vick and Petrino. Said that Blank must have not wanted to know about Vick since a cursory look would have revealed some of his activities.

I think he had to know about most of the shit Vick did, but maybe not with the dogfighting. He probably just turned a deaf ear to it all. They've said he's too much of a father figure and wants to coddle the players instead of discipline and guide them. Just watch his interactions with the players on the sidelines. He'd rather pat them on the ass then tell them to do their fucking job. He's about to pay for it....he's doing all these renovations to the Dome within the next 10 years and his ass is going to be in debt because no one is going to those games.

Wes, I agree the Vick wiff cost the team a millions of dollars. The future of the franchise depends on the next coaching hire coupled with a great decision at the qb position

Have you guys seen the way ESPN has unloaded on Petrino the last few days? They've called everything but a white man. Salsbury even went on the air telling recruits they shouldn't talk to him and shouldn't go to Arkansas. I haven't decided If I am particularly excited about the hire or not, but I definitely find their reaction to it interesting.

You must be ONLY watching ESPN. Fox Sports, Best Damn, the morning shows, all of them are calling him a weasel. It's not going to be easy for him, no matter how good on the x's and o's he is.
I think he's even more loathed right now than Saban....and that's not easy.

To be honest and I would never admit this to a bammer both coaches IMO made a better decision, Atlanta is a mess right now, Petrino made the right call to get out...and the only team worse than Atlanta is the Miami Dolphins. Course it doesn't hurt when you offer your soul to get a coach either (a la spuat)
I don't think the recruits give a shit....the media makes a big deal of it, fans of the opposing school poke fun, but after that who else gives a shit. I don't consider Arkansas a rival (more like an annoying pest, I could give shit who there coach is, chances are Tubs will probably do better now that Fuck Nutt is gone, course now we got to worry bout Ole Piss)
-
It is interesting to see the different take by ESPN on Rodriguez to Michigan and Petrino to Arkansas. Some huge inconsistencies. I do think the Petrino storm will blow over in time. If the Saban thing has almost gone away, I can't see this going on for long either.

I will NEVER let the Saban thing go away. Where is another Bammer I can harass about it?

Once he wins some big games, it will blow over. Razor how is recruiting going for the Hog's? Petrino should make and immediate impact.
-
On the recruiting front on one player has decommited a cornerback from Houston, Tx now going to Boston College. On the other hand it looks as if we have landed a QB from Greenwood, Ark that would not have come if Nutt had been there.
I think the recruiting side of the this whole thing will definitely be a positive.

The man is one hell of a coach, but he will be named in any and all coaching searches!

I figure if the Hogs can keep him for 4 years, they will be lucky. I do think that most were just so glad to get rid of Nutt, that almost anyone would have been greeted with open arms.

I will be more interested in how he is accepted if he has what are perceived as sub par year(s)? It is pretty well recognized that he can be a first class prick in general. You can be a prick when you are winning and folks just say, "he's intense" or "focused". If you are a prick when you are losing you're just a prick.

I don't care if a coach is the nicest guy in the world, if he doesn't win games the fan base (ANY fan base) isn't going to like it.

Fair enough but it is a lot easier to take when a fucker isn't all up in your grille over it.

I don't think any sensible Hog fan has high expectations for next season. We're losing a lot of talent and the schedule will be much tougher. I suspect Petrino will get a pass for the time being......unless he has email-sending lesbian friends or an anchorwoman fetish.

Donna may be looking for the next BIG story.

I actually had no problems with him and the anchor woman. Some of the most successful coaches have had a little puss on the side. And some had a lot of puss on the side. (Barry Switzer comes to mind)
