Is Bobby Petrino washed up with the big jobs?

Well, are you saying that he's been hired by someone? How 'bout a link!

OK - thanks! I'd forgotten all about the WKU vacancy - too many firings/hirings/switches in CFB to keep up with lately!

My post was "is Bobby Petrino washed up with the big jobs"

He's washed up with big jobs. Of course some will disagree that WKU is a big job, or that he could have if he would had stuff.......he's washed up and is going to have to work his way back up. Kudos to the ones that recognized this.

Any job is big if you are unemployed !

I think not. We tend to forget easliy as a society. Im sure that there will be a big team soon needing quality coaching with questionable discession making.

Is this not what folks expected? When he was fired, many said he would go to a low to mid-tier school before getting back to a major conference. This is step 1.

This was probably about as good as he could get right now. He's going to have to prove he can behave himself to land a bigger job than something like WKU (no disrespect intended, but just judging from enrollment, athletic budget, stadium size, etc. WKU isn't in the "big" category, imo). I think for the ADs (and the legal staffs that advise them) the "relationship" is less of an issue, though still a big one, than the fact that he gave her a job, set the school up for various sexual harassment claims, used the cops to try to cover things up, lied to his boss about it, and generally embarrassed the university. Maybe he learned a lesson and won't ever do that again, but he's going to have to prove it before someone in the same category as Michigan, Ohio State, Alabama, Notre Dame, or USC would be interested, if ever.
