Is this what the world has come to? People want to "Save their coach". This man is the biggest POS I have had the dishonor to read about and hear about. And people are really trying to justify keeping him at Arkansas? I really hate that the world has come to the "winning at all costs" mindset. When is football just a game? People need to stand up and say, enough. What he did is wrong, and for those of you who say "its his personal life", well its not personal anymore and children see and hear about how he cheated on his wife and lied to his boss about the incident and people are saying it okay. We need to have better judgment and need to let slimeballs like petrino get what they deserve.
Why is it always what this world is "coming to"? It's human nature, and it has always been this way even if the media wasn't there to capitalize on it until now.

I liked Pearl. He deserved to be fired for lying about what he did and trying to cover it up. Had he just told the TRUTH he would still be the coach.

Everyone knew about Petrino before Ark hired him. He showed his true stripes when he left the Falcons. He's a scumbag.
Pitino did not lie, at all. That's why he was kept. The second the girl started trying to blackmail him, he went to the school/authorities and destroyed her at the cost of cutting off his own hand. Pretty fair trade (assuming it was his left hand).

Never understood the coverup. It's always worse than the crime itself.

Arkansas is in a bad position and I just don't see how they can keep him. They school or Bobby) can't allow her to keep her job, between the wife and the fact she scr#wed her boss she has to be fired or at least moved to another department.

In either case the school will open itself up to a lawsuit it can't win if Bobby is still the coach. Then again they might just pay her off and it all goes away, except on the recruiting trail.

I think they find a way to sweep it all under the rug. Some on...who hasn't banged a chick 25 years younger? We ALL do it! Let he who is without that sin, cast the first stone.
