Another hypothetical...If Mullen were to leave this year would you take Petrino?
- Thread starter birdawg
- Start date
If history is any guide, there are two things we know about hiring Petrino.
Any team he coaches will become a BCS contender within 3-4 years.
His coaching tenure will not end well.

In a RED DOG minute

No State employee who is doing his job correctly would hire Petrino. He is a liability risk.
He lied to the police, lied to his employer, and broke state and national employment laws by creating a job for his floosy and circumventing state mandated hiring procedures. Any college President who approves of hiring Petrino is essentially admitting that he has let football become more important than the university, and deserves the same punishment doled out at Penn State.

Okay, so I used a little hyperbole. The point is, we were supposed to be learning a lesson from the PSU situation that promoting football should not take precedence over common sense in running a university. No University administrator should even consider hiring someone who flagrantly ignores employment laws and lies to cover it up.
