Auburn is reportedly interviewing Bobby Petrino soon.

My guess is they hire him, and that he rebuilds that program into a monster.

The guy has his off the field problems at times, but he was on the verge of having Arkansas become an elite level program before he got fired.

Auburn has no problem looking the other way on sketchy behavior as long as you're winning (see the Cam Newton drama), so Petrino should do just fine there.

I'm more surprised that the guy who built them up is still without a job

Leavitt isn't unemployed, he's doing very well as LB coach with the 49ers.

All indications are that Butch Jones has thrown Purdue out of the mix, and will decide on Cincy or Colorado as early as today (Jones set his own soft deadline of today)

Looks like Boston college has offer Notre dame DC Bob Diaco the head coaching job. I'm hoping he doesn't take it

because their last coach went hog-wild with an intern and crashed his harley, and their current coach is John L. Smith

Personally, I think he'll fail... BAD

Would rather keep him around at Wisconsin. Had a fun little rivalry going and had a feeling Urban really enjoyed beating up on him.
