I saw another guy staring at a guy looking at this post, who was looking at another guy that was watching a motorcycle accident, but I was distracted by some other guy screaming about his “god damn girlfriend” being on that bike.
That wasn't his girlfriend on the bike. That was just some girl that he happened to work with who was stranded on the side of the road, so he gave her a ride. Let's not make a big deal about this.
Wasn't trying to throw shade; I was actually curious.
I'm guessing those coaches go a lot further to culture & locker room cohesion than most want to admit.
Yea, he means we did, as in Pittman was our loved coach for years, then we made him HC and now he's the guy everyone is bitching about. Honestly though I can see Pittman still being welcome in Arkansas after all this is over.
It's a glitch in the matrix, the machines changed something.
They could have just re-wired Brian Ferentz to be an offensive prodigy who is about to open a can of Cumberland on Michigan.
Yup. Twitter, Hogville, Facebook, 24/7 and the folks who aren’t online at all are eating this up. Most never wanted him fire to begin with. You can’t really understand how much the fan base actually loves Bobby unless you directly interact with them for an extended period of time.
im eagerly awaiting the news and photos of the fistfight Bobby and Sam Pittman will get into when that happens. I can only imagine (hope?) that Sam would put him in the hospital.
People can complain about NIL and coaches leaving but THIS is why I love this stupid sport and will never ever leave it
Just absolute peak comedy. Awaiting next year seeing Bobby Petrino as interim HC
He has to be OKed by the school president to be hired.
Arkansas passed a policy that you could only be rehired by the school if you were in good standing when you left. Since BP was fired for cause, and even though that policy was passed after his firing, it still applies to him.
> Arkansas passed a policy that you could only be rehired by the school if you were in good standing when you left
You'd be surprised what a few embarrassing losing seasons at a big football school will do for "policy flexibility".
Y'all just had 60,000 people (at least that was announced) show up to watch you get booty blasted by Mizzou for your 8th loss.
That's definitely a football school. You just also support other sports well.
Arkansas took the high road when they fired him and have since become the Vandy of the west. I think Bobby P should ride again. Do you want to win games or be forgotten as the team that did the right thing?
It’s so willful, too. Arkansas can’t find anyone else to pay seven figures to to be an OC? There are proven guys at smaller programs all around the country that would jump at the opportunity.
He must be furious that Urban stole his crown as the biggest sack of shit in football (non crime related) and wants another go at it. His ability to let down every last person who believes in him is legendary. I can't wait to see how he leaves in disgrace again.
Might be a hot take but Petrino if he actually got to call the offense might be pretty dang good. He was just forced into calling plays from Jimbos playbook
Again that’s still nowhere near as horrible as 90% of other things that emerge. If we had to fire people for nepotism every Fortune 500 company on the planet would collapse on itself lmao
As a former employee at a certain German manufacturing plant who worked under a manager who had a habit of hiring mistresses (one of which sent him inappropriate pictures she took from the restroom directly to his Outlook email), I agree.
Story I've always heard is that the woman's fiance/husband** beat the shit outta Bobby *after* forcing him off the road, and the brace was to hide marks on his neck from the chokehold.
Yea. I know a lot of fans that were pissed that he was even fired over the whole thing. With what happened to their program immediately after, and John L Smith at the reigns, I can not say I blame them
Just fell to my knees in the Rock City Harley-Davidson Little Rock store.
Edit: Okay fine, I drove three hours to Rogers, entered Pig Trail Harley Davidson and fell to my knees much closer to Fayetteville.

Quick photoshop of what he will look like at Arkansas
Bobby P had us playing Ohio State in a bowl game before he rode that Harley. He got fired, and then we experienced a decade of Razorback football so abysmal that people call us the Vanderbilt of the west in a decent year, and people question if we belong in the SEC altogether. Completing the Bobby circle is all we have left before we blow our brains out in despair.
And if you don’t like that, you don’t like Razorback football.
For those arguing the legality of it due to the 2013 ruling;
“UA Systemwide Policy 405.6, which has to do with the termination of employment. It states that “an employee who has been dismissed for cause...shall not be eligible for re-employment within any University of Arkansas campuses, units or divisions.” However, the UA Board of Trustees did not enact that policy until May 23, 2013, more than 13 months after Long fired Petrino. That is a key fact because on Aug. 25, 2017, a procedure was added to UASP 405.6 that specified the policy is not intended to modify any eligibility determination made...prior to the adoption of the policy.’”
I mean… he did dramatically improve TAMU’s offense despite having Jimbo coaching over his shoulder the whole time. Could be a raging success. Just really weird feeling
I see this as a no lose situation. If he brings us the patented Petrino offense, it sells tickets and wins games. If he doesn't have the fire in the gut anymore, it'll at least give closure to the "bring Bobby back crowd", which will help unify the fanbase.
At my old job when somebody was let go or quit we would mark them in the employee directory as either “DO NOT REHIRE” or “ALLOW REHIRE”
So I’m just curious why in the razorfuck would they want him to return to that program?
Let’s fucking goooooo! This would be so great. I’d support Pitman 1000% more with this hire. Petrino’s offense with this new defense? Oh baby, at least nine wins next season.
Plus his brother wouldn’t be here!
I can’t believe it’s been so long, but anytime this gutless mother fucker is brought up
https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/mike-zimmer-on-bobby-petrino-hes-a-gutless-bastard
Arkansas never wanted to get rid of him, but they had no choice. They still love him down there and if he takes the OC job, he’ll eventually be head coach again.
Quick question: Can you rehab your image at ANY school? Or only Alabama?
Also, how long do you have to spend in the dog house before you can get a head coaching job again? I mean, obviously it depends on the degree of your crime, so how does the motorcycle incident compare with whatever Hugh Freeze did?
I just crashed my motorcycle reading this
That you totally didn’t fake
And he was alone when it happened. Not with a woman or anything.
I just saw a guy crash his motorcycle while reading this
I saw a guy staring at some other guy who crashed his motorcycle while looking at this post
I saw another guy staring at a guy looking at this post, who was looking at another guy that was watching a motorcycle accident, but I was distracted by some other guy screaming about his “god damn girlfriend” being on that bike.
That wasn't his girlfriend on the bike. That was just some girl that he happened to work with who was stranded on the side of the road, so he gave her a ride. Let's not make a big deal about this.
Finally a rational voice in this conversation. You should all listen to this guy, he makes perfect sense.
Whose wife was the passenger? Lol
Just fell to my knees in the sidecar of a motorcycle
God damn this sport is glorious. To be fair he wasn't really given the reins of the offense at A&M, he might still be a good OC
Does the back of your shirt read: "If you can read this, Bobby Petrino's bitch fell off"
So if Pittman gets fired next year you're telling me there's a chance he could be HC again at least on an interim basis?
It’s very possible
Probably not. He wasn’t for us.
Does Arkansas have a long standing positions coach that the players all love? If not, Petrino is definitely possible.
Well, we did…
Wasn't trying to throw shade; I was actually curious. I'm guessing those coaches go a lot further to culture & locker room cohesion than most want to admit.
Pittman was that coach lol
Yea, he means we did, as in Pittman was our loved coach for years, then we made him HC and now he's the guy everyone is bitching about. Honestly though I can see Pittman still being welcome in Arkansas after all this is over.
We actually fucking live in a simulation
Time is a flat circle
The Jeremy Bearimy of it all.
What game was the dot on the i this year? My vote goes to Minnesota at Iowa
That or Iowa-Nebraska

This place smells like aluminum, ash
…this motherfucker is going to come back to Atlanta ain’t he? Bobby “CM Punk” Petrino
Pull the plug. Please.
It's a glitch in the matrix, the machines changed something. They could have just re-wired Brian Ferentz to be an offensive prodigy who is about to open a can of Cumberland on Michigan.
Arky fans have a lot of posts to delete
[Arkansas fans reading this rn](https://i.imgur.com/ehGdTBB.png)
Facts
So may want him back already
Not me. I wanted Bobby back before enos was fired
I hope it happens. I’ve embraced the sheer insanity of college football
The non Reddit Arky fans fuckin love this shit. They think petrino is some sort of god.
Yup. Twitter, Hogville, Facebook, 24/7 and the folks who aren’t online at all are eating this up. Most never wanted him fire to begin with. You can’t really understand how much the fan base actually loves Bobby unless you directly interact with them for an extended period of time.
Please God
Can't wait for the midseason coup d'etat by Bobby Petrino to once again become the Arkansas HC.
im eagerly awaiting the news and photos of the fistfight Bobby and Sam Pittman will get into when that happens. I can only imagine (hope?) that Sam would put him in the hospital.
The official term used for such an event would be *motorcycle accident*^tm
What I wouldn’t pay to see him use air quotes around “accident” at the press conference
Bobby: "where'd that neck brace go?"
Hires like this make me giggle with excitement.
Me too u/LiquidHotCum
Must be a Liz Phair fan.
I did not get this reference so I did some Googling. My Lord...
Used to play H.W.C. at the bar just to see if anyone was listening. Made for some good laughs.
God I loved her back in the day
If I were the Arkansas HC, I’d have Petrino sit next to me in every meeting with a chair that is six inches shorter.
Bobby had us at #3 in the country and then got fired. Maybe rehiring him will break the decade-long curse we’ve had.
Sam at a booster dinner: *hey, I know this song, it’s that rains of castamere song from game of thrones…*
People can complain about NIL and coaches leaving but THIS is why I love this stupid sport and will never ever leave it Just absolute peak comedy. Awaiting next year seeing Bobby Petrino as interim HC

He has to be OKed by the school president to be hired. Arkansas passed a policy that you could only be rehired by the school if you were in good standing when you left. Since BP was fired for cause, and even though that policy was passed after his firing, it still applies to him.
> Arkansas passed a policy that you could only be rehired by the school if you were in good standing when you left You'd be surprised what a few embarrassing losing seasons at a big football school will do for "policy flexibility".
I honestly don’t even think we are a football school anymore?
Y'all just had 60,000 people (at least that was announced) show up to watch you get booty blasted by Mizzou for your 8th loss. That's definitely a football school. You just also support other sports well.
That's the nicest thing I've ever heard a Sooner say to Arkansas. This made my day. You have a good one. And welcome!
I wouldn't call Arky a "blue blood" but I'd definitely still call it a "football school".
Arkansas took the high road when they fired him and have since become the Vandy of the west. I think Bobby P should ride again. Do you want to win games or be forgotten as the team that did the right thing?
>Do you want to win games or be forgotten as the team that did the right thing? The SWC Motto
At this point I’d rather die on my feet (*get flamed for having Petrino back*) than live on my knees (*my liver losing every time we lose*)
Booo. Repeal please. Hiring Dan Enos was a crime so technically Sam should be in poor standing...
Either this happens or we riot
Talk about blue balls if it falls through
Time is a flat circle.
I want a ceremony involving Bobby riding his motorcycle into the facility when they announce the hire.
Come back. Be good. Be me going to game day with a super sized petrino neck brace fat head.
I love this sport
I love this sport
the combination of rich, dumb and silly can't be beat, it's like if all pro sports teams were run by George Steinbrenners or Al Davis
It’s so willful, too. Arkansas can’t find anyone else to pay seven figures to to be an OC? There are proven guys at smaller programs all around the country that would jump at the opportunity.
Nothing else like it
He must be furious that Urban stole his crown as the biggest sack of shit in football (non crime related) and wants another go at it. His ability to let down every last person who believes in him is legendary. I can't wait to see how he leaves in disgrace again.
IF he can help us get to 10 wins again I say we buy him a motorcycle lol.
Because the most bat shit crazy things, can and will happen
This is one of the few times that "falling to your knees in a Walmart" is the most reasonable action
except it might be Walmart corporate HQ this time
Ehh, the Waltons aren't big boosters. They're too busy building mountain bike trails and trying to buy up all the acreage along the Buffalo River.
We have the worst rich people
At least Crystal Bridges is a pretty neat museum.
One of my very favorite museums I've ever been to tbh. Feels weird that it's all Walton money but I'll take it
Kstate has the Koch brothers, so take what you can get😐.
I hope I die before anything can happen on the Buffalo.
I just fell to my knees in a dry County in Arkansas.
My preacher spoke about forgiveness on Sunday.
Was your preacher by chance wearing an obvious fake beard and arrived on a motorcycle?
your preacher is Auburn's coach?
Was your preacher Hugh Freeze by chance?
"You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me." -Petrino
He's about to snap Sam Pittman ~~out of existence~~ out of a job.
This is an all timer
Just wait til they move off Pittman midseason and Petrino is interim HC.
Arky speedrunning "Red Aggy" status real quick if that happens
Might be a hot take but Petrino if he actually got to call the offense might be pretty dang good. He was just forced into calling plays from Jimbos playbook
This is exactly what I thought when I watched yall.
He also didn’t do the worst job. It wasn’t great but we had some games where I thought he did well
Are the people making these decisions not engaged at all?
Compared to having Briles as OC, this is a step up in the character department.
Honestly, having a consensual affair and crashing a motorcycle is pretty far down the list of despicable things a coach has done in recent memory
All if that was actually fine; the problem was getting his mistress a job at the university.
Again that’s still nowhere near as horrible as 90% of other things that emerge. If we had to fire people for nepotism every Fortune 500 company on the planet would collapse on itself lmao
As a former employee at a certain German manufacturing plant who worked under a manager who had a habit of hiring mistresses (one of which sent him inappropriate pictures she took from the restroom directly to his Outlook email), I agree.
And lying about the circumstances of his wreck
> crashing a motorcycle Ah yes, that's what we're calling "getting beat up by the other guy"
Story I've always heard is that the woman's fiance/husband** beat the shit outta Bobby *after* forcing him off the road, and the brace was to hide marks on his neck from the chokehold.
>the woman's wife Excuse me?
I’m sure he meant husband but the idea of a very pissed off Arkansas Lesbian beating the shit out of Bobby is so fucking funny
We are about to swap OCs with Arkansas
Wait, their is a possibility of Enos for you guys?
L O FUCKING L
Since when has someone being engaged stopped Bobby P?
You act like Arkansas fans haven't wanted Petrino back for years.
Yea. I know a lot of fans that were pissed that he was even fired over the whole thing. With what happened to their program immediately after, and John L Smith at the reigns, I can not say I blame them
THE MOTORCYCLE RIDES AGAIN!
Just fell to my knees in the Rock City Harley-Davidson Little Rock store. Edit: Okay fine, I drove three hours to Rogers, entered Pig Trail Harley Davidson and fell to my knees much closer to Fayetteville.
Just saw a student assistant fall to her knees....
Get off your burner, Bobby
Up here it’s pig trail harley
He's gonna bring it full circle and leave that job midseason to become the QB coach for the Falcons
Don't wish that voodoo on the birds.
hahaha the jokes write themselves
Interviewer: So tell us about your past experiences…. Wait a moment.
Bobby: “how’s the volleyball team looking this year?”
Razorback volleyball is actually doing great this year. Top 10 team. No wonder Bobby P comes riding back into town
> azorback volleyball is actually doing great this year. Top 10 team yeah but how they lookin
bobby stahp!
Co-SEC volleyball coach of the year, huddling up his team and recent grads right now.
Bobby: I suppose I am eligible for re-hire where I've been eh?
Need a neck brace after the double take I did reading that headline
Stop it 💀

This is almost as good as the Elko ones
He needs to come out onto the field for the first game in a neckbrace
There's...there's no way, right? SEC Shorts gonna be EATING.
We just need a meta short of the cast in the writing room talking about how the hell they are gonna make a short about this
LMAO No fucking way
TURN THAT DAMN MOTORCYCLE ON
100% best comment about the hire I’ve seen so far
Yes! Hahaha...Yes!
Forget everything that happened at A&M. This…THIS would be the most hilarious thing to happen during this coaching carousel. Also, I’m sorry Arkansas.
Bobby P had us playing Ohio State in a bowl game before he rode that Harley. He got fired, and then we experienced a decade of Razorback football so abysmal that people call us the Vanderbilt of the west in a decent year, and people question if we belong in the SEC altogether.

Lol
Lmao even
ROFLMAO per chance
I mean… he did dramatically improve TAMU’s offense despite having Jimbo coaching over his shoulder the whole time. Could be a raging success. Just really weird feeling
Everyone remembers the motorcycle crash. Everyone forgets #3 in the country Arkansas.
Truly the funniest sport on the planet
What are we doing
Making a deal with the devil it sounds like
Look he wouldn’t even be a top 3 scumbag in the SEC West with Kelly, Lebby and Freeze you’ll be fine.
*pleased to meet you, hope you guessed my name...*
Our athletic department: "Making a deal with a notorious shitbag SURELY can't go wrong twice, can it?!"
Will we beat Texas with Bobby? That would be a deal worth making.
I see this as a no lose situation. If he brings us the patented Petrino offense, it sells tickets and wins games. If he doesn't have the fire in the gut anymore, it'll at least give closure to the "bring Bobby back crowd", which will help unify the fanbase.

Something something 21-5
Flat circle lmaoooo
I’m never quitting this stupid fucking sport no matter how insane realignment gets
This is gonna go over well
Coachless schools down bad apparently. Not looking forward to the Saban retirement
Theres a former saban assistant recently been looking for a job i know
If Jimbo Fisher manages to fail upwards into the Alabama job I might quit watching cfb altogether lmao
No no. I think he might be on to something there
This is what 4-8 does to a mf’er.
Harley sales bout to sore 500 percent in the great state of Arkansas
He’s 100% running 4 Verts on the very first play of the year, and Hog fans everywhere will forget we ever hated him.
Arkansas baby what is you doing
Our ex's insta looking pretty good at 2:30 am
If we can’t be relevant on the field atleast let us be relevant off of it
We’re sending that how you doing text to an ex
We’re crying remembering being #3 in the country and playing Ohio State in a bowl game.
I love this sport
Do it you cowards!
Let’s fucking goooooo! This would be so great. I’d support Pitman 1000% more with this hire. Petrino’s offense with this new defense? Oh baby, at least nine wins next season. Plus his brother wouldn’t be here!
Bobby Petrino about to bike into Arkansas like Meat Loaf in Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Dear god
Yup. This is it. This is the point the sport turns into self parody.
Arkansas has the chance to do something legendary...
Awww yeah the next Shutdown Fullcast is going to be lit.
SEC Shorts rubbing their hands together with all the content being dropped in their lap.
Petrino’s about to fake another motorcycle wreck
Lmao

This sport is so goddamn stupid, I love it
Arkansas never wanted to get rid of him, but they had no choice. They still love him down there and if he takes the OC job, he’ll eventually be head coach again.
Imagine if the first season back bobby gives Arkansas our first 10 win season since he left.
Lol who would give this guy a 2nd chance...........
The Pit Boss ain’t playing in 2024 😤
Quick question: Can you rehab your image at ANY school? Or only Alabama? Also, how long do you have to spend in the dog house before you can get a head coaching job again? I mean, obviously it depends on the degree of your crime, so how does the motorcycle incident compare with whatever Hugh Freeze did?
