Former Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino has agreed to become the next head coach at Western Kentucky, a source close to the coach told ESPN's Joe Schad on Monday. A source close to Petrino told Schad the coach views Western Kentucky as a program with an excellent administration with vision and a commitment to facilities and other elements necessary to win. Can't wait to see what bonehead move he makes next.

On Wednesday Bobby Petrino's father told the Louisville Courier-Journal that the former Arkansas coach has interest in returning to coaching at Kentucky. Bobby Petrino Sr. told the newspaper...

"I just know this, that he's interested in Kentucky," "He wants to stay in the SEC. That was his life's goal was to go to the SEC."

"You know, he made mistakes," Petrino Sr. told the paper, "but he couldn't have gone through any punishment worse than losing his job. He's missed coaching tremendously."
