So its ok for a coach to quit on a team with 3 games left in the season? To me, that's like a coach telling a team before a game that they need to give 60 minutes of effort, then the coach going home to take a nap after the third quarter because the team is losing.

After what he did, you gotta be a complete hypocrite to tell a team that they need to be dedicated and committed.

If hog fans condone what Petrino did, then they cant hold it against any hog player who decides they want to transfer mid-season because the team has a losing record, or they saw a school with a bigger weight room...

He wouldn't have quit if Blank let him talk to Arkansas like he said he would. The article said he wanted to FINISH the season with the Falcons but Blank pushed him into a corner and he did what he had to do. What he did was wrong, but until we know what REALLY happened between the two, we should have an open mind.
