It would be hilarious. But with 20-20 hindsight, they never should have fired him.

Don't think they would ever truly consider that. Lots of "I told you so"-ing after om hired him and things went south.

I think he was better than he was given credit for but it was nice having a 10 and 11 win season shortly after people criticized us for firing him thinking we couldn't do better

No doubt it would have worked out a lot better for you if Petrino hadn't wrecked his bike. Agree that he was better than he's given credit for, both at Arkansas and at Mississippi.

You mean if he hadn't "wrecked his bike"...

Ha. Yeah, got to figure that scandal would have been discovered sooner or later anyway.

I would say with 20-20 hindsight, they shouldn't have fired Petrino.

Dock his pay, make him go through mandatory HR and sexual harassment training, get him to make some public penance such as donating money to something in particular, and put him on probation, and then just take the PR hit. Hiring someone he was having a relationship (or having a relationship with somebody in his department if she was already there) is certainly a fireable offense. But I don't think that is something that you have to fire somebody for.
