You know what they say - Birds of a feather...both have ties to Arkansas
Since the news broke earlier this week about the Razorback coach's failed
Easy Rider impersonation revealing his "transgressions" with a a young lady, the sports world has been playing close attention to what's going on down in Fayetteville.
Tonight, Arkansas AD Jeff Long announced the firing Bobby Petrino. This was a surprise to some, as plenty of talking heads thought it would be hard for Long to fire a winning coach over his morally despicable behavior.
And the dude isn't holding back any punches. During the press conference, Long spewed out that
Petrino had given his mistress, Jessica Dorrell, $20,000 dollars. This was of course on top of the $55k she made annually in the position Petrino recently got her hired to as the student-athlete development coordinator.
20 g's. You hear that, Rick? #stepyourgameup #simpinainteasy
In other news, don't even begin to mention Petrino as a possible coaching option down the road for the Wildcats - Matt tweeted out that
Barnhart and Brooks HATE Bobby Petrino. That is all. Post covering the UK vs. UofL baseball game coming up soon once it ends.
