Lets accept petrino for what it is, he is by no means a moral saint, but neither is calipari or saban or any other big name coach. Its a crappy thing to say but they are not paid to be saints, they are paid to do a job and they do that job very well. Its the nature of the business that people are willing to overlook things ( not defending his actions here) in order to gain an advantage on the field/court. Its a business first kind of structure. That being said I would give my award for this topic to Buddy stephens as well, idk if he was playing it up for the cameras or what but he literally fought an official one game....
It's not an issue of "morals" with Bobby Neckbrace, it's an issue of ethics, as in him being a pathologically lying, ethically challenged sack of dung. That total package was never displayed better than in his final days at Arkansas, when it was revealed that:
* Bobby Neckbrace hired a woman he was banging into a cushy job in the athletic department so he could go on banging her, I suppose right under the nose of her fiance, who also happened to work in the UA athletic department.
* Bobby Neckbrace took her on that now infamous Harley ride, had an "accident" (still not 100% convinced that her fiance didn't give him a good *** beating after maybe forcing him off the road).
* Bobby Neckbrace then tried to get a member of the Arkansas Highway Patrol to lie about the "accident" and leave Ms. Dorrell out of the report.
* Bobby Neckbrace lies through his teeth to (in no particular order) his boss, his family, his players, the media, and the Arkansas fans about his "accident" even though (and this is my favorite part because it shows the SOB can't help himself when it comes to lying) he
knows that he's going to be exposed in a matter of days.
* And least but not least, there were rumors that Bobby Neckbrace had texted inappropriate photos of himself to a woman in Little Rock, I suppose trying to do his best Brett Farve imitation.
It was never about "morals". Arkansas didn't care that he was banging someone besides his wife. He would have never been fired if that was all it had been, and I'm sure that doesn't need to be explained to anyone.
I get that UaVel fans don't give two ***** what he's done or may do in the future, but when his name and escapades are bought up in a thread like this, don't act indignant about it. Same goes for Piteener and his restaurant table humping episode, and of course, running a strip club and ***** house out of a dorm with his dead brother in-law's name on it.
