Hard to say. Can I go anywhere? I like northwest Arkansas, they have great facilities, and if you stay in state and had a decent career, you have it made. That being said Petrino just strikes me wrong. Weasel comes to mind, and I'm not just talking about what he did, but how speaks, his mannerisms etc. If I'm a high profile recruit I'm heading South.

It would depend on the gift bag I received when I arrived on campus, and which ladies escorted me around.

Who is Joe Adams? I think the Pig Nation is going to be surprised how ineffective Petrino is in recruiting.

Petrino has faced real competition once in his life and failed

the big east doesn't count... no matter how cute the offense is

I wouldn't play for Arky...

If I were a high profile recruit my concern would be does the coach's style help me use/develope my skills best

Like Miles did such a great job at OK St? I do not know how Petrino will do, but he took a basketball school and made them successful.

Time will tell I guess.

I think Petrino has backed himself into a corner at Arkansas good or bad. Sometimes I believe too much is made about who the head coach is. Recruits who want to represent Arkansas will likely do so with the knowledge he might leave.

Heck, is there any recruit that doesn't believe the coach he committs too with 100% be there for his five years?

My choices would be 'Bama, LSU, and Ole Miss.

I hate Fayetteville.

Not until the A.D. told me who they were hiring as the HC for the 2009 season.
