Re: Arkansas Calls Press Conference for 7:15
I'd find it absolutely hilarious if they went for and got Garrick McGee. UAB fans would have another UA to hate.
I agree but stranger things have happened.

Sue errbody! Wooo!
Re: Question for Legal Eagles -- What about the Asst S&C Coach??
I keep seeing him mentioned as Assistant S&C coach, but everything I've found online says he's Director of Swimming and Diving Operations. Not sure where the S&C stuff comes from.
1. Arkansas is where Tubby always went Duck hunting, during Recruiting Season...
2. Tubby's not happy at Tech, they have him still running a variant of Leach's Offense. Tubby wasn't allowed to put in his own offense.
3. What a hoot if Arkansas sends a plane to Tubby to try to get him to replace Petrino.
(Tit for Tat)

Wow talk about a rough 2 weeks. Hate it for the guy.

And as I mentioned previously, I hate it for the wedding vendors that will probably be out of a job on June 9th. Judging by the fact the girl probably comes from a good family (Before the 20K she was given as a "gift"), it's safe to say her vendors required a good amount of money up front... but they still won't see full payment for a date that is prime wedding day real estate.
Jeff Long did the right thing!
Jeff Long made the right/correct decision in firing BP!
If Mal Moore ever retires and Coach Saban does not want that job, Jeff Long could be a good candidate for AD.
You want someone who has been on the firing line and has made good decisions.
I'm still watching to see what if anything happens to the former VB player. Lawsuits could result from that decision. If I were the AD, I would not want her in the position that she currently holds. Give her a raise and send her to the Volleyball part of the Athletic Department because of how she acquired the current position. Was the current assignment one that she earned on her Volleyback?

Re: Jeff Long did the right thing!
Jeff Long was the one who hired Petrino knowing he was a total scum bag. I think he did the right thing, but he should have known it was bound to happen eventually.

Re: Jeff Long did the right thing!
rumor is the AD tried to buy Ms Jessica Dorrell a first class ticket out of Fayetteville......but she only rides coach.

Re: Jeff Long did the right thing!
He knew he was a scum bag? Up until now, what did Petrino do to be called a scum bag? He left the Falcons mid-season for the job he just got fired from? I can see the correlation of him not fulfilling his contract at one job to take another job and Jeff Long should have knowing that CBP was going to have an affair with an employee. Easy correlation between those two actions.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Garrick McGee. Is it?
Re: Question for Legal Eagles -- What about the Asst S&C Coach??
You're right. My original information was wrong. He is on the swimming staff.
Re: Question for Legal Eagles -- What about the Asst S&C Coach??
The phone records are out, and boy did Bobby like to text her on days leading up to games...
Oh yeah... there were definitely picture texts sent.

Re: Jeff Long did the right thing!
Agreed wholeheartedly. His actions prior to l'affaire Dorrell were tacky and perhaps even shady, but they didn't warrant the label of scum bag. They might be on the borderline for acceptable coaching behavior, but let's not get all self-righteous and act like Dan Lebatard.

Apparently there were texts before several SEC games, including 7 before Bama and 80 (!) before Vandy...

Re: Jeff Long did the right thing!
Let's look at his two major past "sins".
Unless he called Bobby Lowder and said they need to fire Tubby and hire him, I don't see the problem. Lots of coaches interview for jobs, even if there is no official vacancy. He also supposedly looked into other jobs. Well, Louisville is hardly at the top of the football food chain and football isn't at the top of the sports food chain at Louisville. I don't blame him for looking for a better gig.
Then there is his year with the Falcons. He went there expecting to coach Michael Vick, but that didn't happen and the season was a disaster. Yes, he probably should have told the team in person he was leaving, but I don't blame him for actually taking the Arkansas job.
Was he underhanded in moving up the coaching ladder? Probably. But that hardly makes him unique in his profession.
