Sounds more like desperation to me, on both sides. Arkansas had to land a name coach and Petrino was looking for any way to get out of Atlanta. Arkansas just happened to be the spot available, but he would have gone to any major program that would hire him to escape that situation.

And there lies the problem with Petrino to Arkansas. He saw the only opening where there was real interest and took it. Saban and Petrino are both in situations that will become harder for them to stomach the longer they are there. Both will be gone in relatively short order and leave both schools fanbases wondering why anyone would want to leave such a GREAT opportunity. Petrino will be the perfect person to give Arkansas a reality check (due to ridiculous expectations) and make them realize what they let go to Ole Miss.
