Arthur Blank is a meddlesome owner. He was pushing around Michael Vick in a wheelchair and always drawing attention to himself.
I think Petrino knew the next few years in Atlanta were going nowhere fast. He was only there a year, so him leaving the NFL and going back to college isn't a big deal. Cost himself a few million, but if it makes him happy to be in Arkansas - more power to him.

What's that- lie to his boss' face and run out of town with your tail between your legs- not even having the guts to tell anyone face-to-face?
I've been in jobs I wasnt happy with, but that's no reason not to conduct yourself with honor and dignity.
And his agent bringing up the firing of Reeves is a joke. Sure they fired him, but they also had to pay his contract. You can fire my arse today if I walk away with several million bucks. Petrino walked out on the Falcons, leaving them a complete mess, and gave them nothing but a chickens-t goodbye note.
His agent can try, but you cant polish that turd.
