re: Arkansas Will Request Permission this Sunday to Speak With Petersen

Why are they waiting until Sunday to ask permission when they've known they needed a coach since the Spring

because it is considered common courtesy to not ask permission to speak to a head coach until the regular season is complete. boise finishes saturday against nevada.

do you really think jeff long is at ground zero after 8 months? not hardly.

if it were a coach who was not still in the regular season schedule, long would have already named a coach.
