If you still think we shouldn't have hired Petrino, then you're blind, stupid, or both. Sorry if that insults you, buy it's true. Football is a dirty game won in the margins. He exploits those margins better than anyone. Perfect coach for a mid level recruiting program which we are. Easy to protect yourself in the contract when a coach is desperate to get back in the game. Heck he paid $300,000 out of his own pocket to coach one year at WKU.
The argument was never about his qualifications as a coach. He had Arkansas facing potential sexual harassment lawsuits. If you can't understand why an AD would stay away then it's obvious you don't understand the argument against Petrino. It's easy for a fan to say it's only wins that matter. When it's your job on the line you might care about potential legal liabilities.

So he wasn't responsible for hiring him....which means that he's not a hypocrite based on Prime MF's theory. You two are actually at odds here.
I didnt say mitch was a hypocrite. I said he was an idiot who is too scared to take a chance at actually fielding a winning football program.

Yeah, poor Louisville! I wish UK would let us suffer through a season like the one they're having.

He clearly didn't care about committing $18 million to a loser coach...

That's the problem with the pro-Petrino group, you assume I like every decision from Mitch. I think Stoops is a bad coach and the raise was absolutely ridiculous. I can agree with not hiring Petrino and hate the Stoops extension at the same time. They're not mutually exclusive.

Oh CONGRATULATIONS for your HINDSIGHT! So easy to say now. Don't go out on a limb or anything, like many of us did two years ago.
Go to my posts back when we were looking for a coach you idiot.

If that's really true, then what's your beef now? Are you really a family member of Mitch's? Because there's absolutely no justification vis-a-vis the football program why anyone that has wasted money and time like Barney has should keep his job.

You're an idiot.

If it's not clear that I'm sick of your MB BS then you're dumber than I thought.

Be sick of it all you want, but since you don't have the capability or brainpower to refute it, I guess you just have to continue being sick of it.
