Really? Loserville? Arkansas? Have you looked at his record? He owns UK. 5-1. If not for an Arkansas fumble in UK territory...could be 6-0. I will name two places he left in good shape. U of L and Arkansas. The cupboards were not bare. Kragthorpe and surprisingly, John L, were huge flops and left the programs in bad shape. UK hires one of the biggest known cheats in college basketball and Petrino is scum? Unlike Cal...he doesn't need a bunch of five star recruits to win either. So what's Cal and AAU coach/shoe salesman World Wide Wes (who is scum too)? No difference. Petrino and Pitino's scandals sure don't help recruiting. Either you are a hypocrite...or maybe just plain ignorant. I'm pretty sure the guy would still be at Arkansas had he not gotten fired. Maybe he gets his act together. Time will tell. Scum or not....I have always liked watching Petrino coached teams. They are well prepared and they win. WKU is a chance for Petrino to make things right. I wish him well. U of L fans understood he probably wouldn't stay...it was the lying about it that was an issue. You can't blame him for moving to a better situation. Now that U of L is in the ACC the chances of keeping a coach around longer is much better. Strong can just about write his own ticket now. Stadium expansion talks are in the works and looks to be another step forward. So you might want to get use to U of L being around. Not to mention Western who also is enjoying two straight wins over UK. Loserville...not lately!

Yes Loserville and Arkansas. Both took or will take years to recover from scumbags departure. That's not hypocritical or ignorant. That's a fact unless you are just inherently stupid.

I didn't even bring Auburn into it.

Yes he can coach and yes he wins during his tenure. But as asked earlier. Show me one place that he took over that was in better shape when he left. You can't.
