Living in Little Rock sure has made for some interesting drive time sports listening. The Razorback Nation is abuzz with rumors and questions, not the least of which is should we have used Houston Nutt's text messages to a reporter-ete as a pretext for running him off? Terible precedent now that they have a winning coach in the same boat with bigger holes in his story.
As banged up as Petrino is, no one has mentioned if the girl had any significant injuries. Guess not if someone just dropped her off at her car. Her fiancee is probably pissed not just at the affair but that his future ex wife could have been seriously injured.
Hmm. The arkansas board showed this article: Petrino must be fired. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefoo...-adultery-or-lie-but-putting-arkansas-at-risk Didn't realize he had just hired her.
to be in a motorcycle accident and not require medical attention is crazy. must have been a pretty minor accident, but mabe not if petrino is busted up. very weird story.
Before everyone writes off the sexual harassment angle, people need to understand something about high-profile public figures and infidelity. Mistresses are like rats, for every one you see, there are 3 or 4 that you don't. Think how Paula Jones was just the tip of the iceberg. Chances are this isn't the first time Petrino has gotten a little something on the side. It isn't necessarily just Dorrell that is keeping the Arkansas administration and attorneys up at night, but who else Petrino might have been involved with (wanted advances or not) that could come out of the woodwork and sue the university now that the story is blown open.
Remember part of the reason Nutt left was because of evidence of affair and the hundreds of text messages. This may well be the beginning of the end for ole Bobbie.
Moral of the story: Do not disrespect The Hat. Your baseball team will get swept and your football coach will be disgraced, both within the same week. I would think that Arky would be very sensitive to this sort of thing after the way Nutt went out. We'll see how much success compromises their principles.
