Mizzou should really be ready to strike here. There are few schools better situated to benefit from this mess than Mizzou.

We did lose a 4* RB to them, didn't we?

The thing I don't get and that keeps blowing my mind about the Hog fans:

The number of them that don't get that the decision to fire Petrino was not because of him cheating on his wife. This strawman keeps getting drug out again and again and again by these simpletons. He got fired because he paid the chick $20,000 and hired her over 157 other candidates, thus putting the University in danger of lawsuit and damaging our integrity, so he could keep his piece of trim close at hand and with him on taxpayer funded business trips. If he cheats with some random bimbo, then this is a non starter, and he's still our coach. These knuckle draggers keep trotting out the, "Lots of people cheat on their wives and keep their jobs" and other crappy analogies, though.

You just described over half of America. People just don't "get it".


I didn't think he would be fired until I heard about the money and job. Once that was released he was a goner.

Dear Jeff Long,
Thank you.
Thank you for standing up for our state. With our small state inferiority complex, Arkansans are so desperate to be recognized as a real contender. We are an odd and hopefully endearing bunch, with just one major university and no professional team to rally behind. You seem to understand us well.
As a lifer here in the Natural State, I appreciate the way you represented us on the national stage tonight. You showed true leadership, and that is rarely seen these days on any platform. Clearly, this evening was difficult on you, but your show of emotion made your conviction clear and your words more powerful. The pressure on you over the last 5 days must have been immense. Your lack of compromise in the face of it inspires.
I must say that I was hoping for this decision. As you so eloquently stated, Petrino’s behavior put the reputation of the U of A, the football program, and the entire state at risk, but honestly I was worried you wouldn’t do it. The boosters, the players, the recruits, the possibilities of the upcoming season, the leadership failures at Penn State and the University of Montana-it made me cynical and doubtful of you, and I don’t even know you. Please forgive me.
You proved that there are still truths worth standing on, and for the youth of our state, it is a message they hear infrequently, if at all. I know, because I see it in my office every day. Entitlement, arrogance, and moral compromise rule the day. Integrity, honesty, full disclosure, valuing the right thing over the easy thing, and humility are in scarce supply.
The message won’t be received well by some, maybe not even half of our fans. Some of them will come around, but some never will. And that’s ok. You can clearly weather the storm.
My prayers are with you and your family, the assistants and theirs, the players, Ms. Dorrell and her former fiance, and the Petrino family. As you said, there are things we sometimes forget to think about. The very human things.
I hope Coach Petrino and Ms. Dorrell can enter into a time of self-reflection and repentance, finding grace and second chances are there for us all, even the most public offenders.

Thank you again,
Stacy Furlow

With this 20K thing they should go after them for prostitution.

Weird that he only got one game suspension when a student such as James Sims at KU gets 3 games for the same infraction. Just different standards at different schools I suppose.

This won't end good for the Ark football program. They'll go back to "mid major" status but at least the school has respect. Throwing it right into the face of the usual SEC slime. I give them much respect for that.

Sad, so sad

It is Bill Clinton all over again. Perjury, what perjury, it was just about the sex with Lewinsky.

yup...reading all the amateur lawyer-ing was hilarious too

he exposed the university to a potentially massive legal liability...it was over before it started, so to speak...and the decision was made for the AD, from above, though I bet Long was smart enough to not even have to ask

Uh, no. Just like there's no explicit prostitution in sleeping with a guy after dinner/drinks.

Jessica Dorrell’s fiance, Josh Morgan, no long at Arkansas
By Graham Watson | Dr. Saturday – 1 hour 2 minutes ago

Bobby Petrino wasn't the only one affected by his affair with Jessica Dorrell to leave Arkansas. Dorrell's fiancé Josh Morgan, who was the director of swimming and diving operations for the Razorbacks, has left his position with the school according to swimswarm.com.

However, Josh Morgan is no longer the Director of Swimming and Diving Operations at Arkansas. It is now swimming-news.

The unfortunate affair has cost him his job (whether it be from intimidation, firing, or resignation is unclear). Former graduate assistant Megan Haskins has been promoted to take over his spot.

Morgan is no longer listed on the Razorbacks' swimming website.

ESPN reported that Dorrell was "at one point" engaged to Morgan, insinuating that the relationship was over.

Morgan, similar to Petrino's wife, Becky, and his four kids, becomes the collateral damage in what has become an ugly story for Arkansas. It's easy to focus on the primary characters in this mess and forget the people it's affecting the most. Neither Dorrell nor Morgan have commented since news of the inappropriate relationship broke last Thursday and Dorrell remains employed by the university.

She's hot.
She's an "outside hitter."
I'll bet her thighs are amazing.
