She's probably gonna set it up to BP walking in on a DT on the downstroke on her. Think his face got red before?

He was fricking around on his wife here in Louisville many moons ago. He just got caught rather publicly this time around.

Heard him on Mike and Mike(i was riding in someone elses car) and I thought he sounded very humbled.

He said a few places looked at him as OC.

Like I said he sounded like he was almost medicated.


When I met him yesterday he seemed very appreciative to be coaching again. Even during the press conference he was very soft spoken and almost somber.

What most people on the rant doesn't understand is that a lot of people in Kentucky love bobby petrino still and only remember the good times at U of L. They don't focus on the negative like a lot of the media does and really appreciate the fact that he chose to come to Western and help their program. We all remember the job that he did at Louisville and even Kentucky fans appreciated the teams that he fielded with local guys like Brian Brohm and Micheal Bush.

He will be successful at WKU and it will be his "new leaf" school. I look forward to seeing him on the sidelines and seeing him coach.

Its a dream come true for everyone at WKU they were super excited at the press conference that he's the new head coach.

Which would make this deal even better for WKU.

WKU can not lose with the contract they negotiated.

How did they sell their souls?

Let's say Petrino leaves after 2 years. WKU pays 225k a year for Petrino.
Hell! They have schools in the Sunbelt paying 800k a year for a head coach, none with the skills of Petrino.

Actually, they are paying him 850K a year, which makes him the highest paid coach in the SunBelt now that Malzahn is gone.

It's also nearly twice what Taggert was making, so they're making a pretty large leap to get him.

They are paying 825k if he stays. If he leaves at any time during the contract, Petrino pays 1.2 mil to the school.

So if Peteino leaves after 2, like the poster suggests, the school would payout 1.65 and get back 1.2. This would equal 225k a year. Great deal.

OK, I'm following.

Didn't know his buyout was that large, but I guess it's proportional to his salary.

When you stop and think about the other upper tier Sunbelt schools (according to salary) won't collect a dime when their coach leaves, it even more impressive what WKU is getting out of this deal.
