Re: Bobby Petrino Hurt In Motorcycle Accident

Reporter: "Is his job status in jeopardy at this point?"

AD Long: "I don't know what I will find in the review..."

WOW.

Re: Bobby Petrino Hurt In Motorcycle Accident

Guys, I don't know anymore details about this site until I do my review.

Honestly, that was horrible. Don't call a presser if you don't have any details or idea of what will happen.

Re: Bobby Petrino Hurt In Motorcycle Accident

Wow. Ol Bobby admits to an inappropriate relationship and is put on "paid administrative leave" until the UA PTB can figure out what to do next.

There you have it. I say he's out due to violating whatever morality clause they made sure to put in there after all of Nutt's hijinks.
I was wrong once before, but I'd be absolutely shocked if they canned him. Unless there's more to it than an affair and an incredibly lame cover-up attempt. They put up with a lot more over a lot longer period of time with Houston Nutt and he wasn't consistently winning 10+ games a year. I have friends who are Ark fans and they think the guy walks on water. I just don't see it happening.

Re: Bobby Petrino Hurt In Motorcycle Accident

Hog fans who are familiar with Long say he looked very upset...
The only time I saw him upset was when the reporters kept asking questions in hopes to hear more than his cussed review.

If I was an Arky fan, I would want a new AD that could handle pressure.

He had to say something. This thing has turned into a firestorm today. I think he had to have Petrino release a statement and he had to say "we're not trying to cover anything up" and "we're going to fully investigate before making a decision."

And administrative leave - in the middle of spring practice - is no small thing...

If/when she's fired I'll bet it's negotiated very carefully. Could be a very profitable 8-day career.

I hate it for the possibly soon to be ex-fiance...what a punch in the gut to find out your bride-to-be was having a "relationship" with someone old enough to be her father..and a co-worker.
