    yep, take the word of some one who left school early about disloyalty to the other players he left behind. Petrino did nothing different than Anderson did.

    Yeah, apples and oranges there. Quitting in the middle of the season is what makes the decision so onerous. Plus, Anderson was making a decision about his livelihood. If Petrino was leaving an unpaid job for one that would provide for his family, that would be just a little different.

    I just listened to Harrington talking about Petrino, and it actually made me like Harrington.

    Don't get me wrong, I despise ATL, but those players, in a rough as hell season, got left by their leader with 3 games left on the schedule. Brutal stuff, and I think ATL might be one of the toughest outs over the next 3 weeks.

    I know it sounds crazy, but that team just got galvanized beyond belief--more than the whole Vick thing.

    When he kept trying to wheel out Leftwich, I knew something was terribly wrong with that man.

    Pretty much. Plus, I'll go back to my second post - coach moving is getting out of hand. Todd Graham left Rice for Tulsa a few days after signing a new contract last year. No penalty. Nothing*. If Petrino wanted the Arkansas job he just should've taken his chances that it would be there 3 games from now. At the earliest. If it's gone? Tough shit.

    * - Props to the Rice band for calling him a douchebag during the halftime show this year.
