Do you want Bobby Petrino as your Head Football Coach?

[Catfish Joe]

Vote.

[LordStanleysHog]

1000 times yes....

[Divot]

Yes.

[rubberdeeduckie]

You should be required to have a minimum football IQ of 130+ before being allowed to vote in this poll.   jmo

[BENJAMINX]

Absolutely.

[rubberdeeduckie]

AND submit to a blood test proving you bleed Razorback Red...

[Razor6]

100,000 yes

[Ray Piggers]

HELL YES

[HackettHawg]

No Doubt.

[Gor-Gor]

Obviously YES. Our football program is arguably the best it's ever been, and that is thanks to Bobby Petrino.

[HawgJaws]

Yes!

[BorderPatrol]

Of course.

bp

[Pyrotechnician]

Where is the undecided button?  We should all do like Jeff Long.  Once we know more, that is when to either drop the axe or put it back in the tool shed.

[superior_wang]

are you serious?

not only do i want BP as  head coach till drops dead , i want anyone that is so f-ed in the head as to think this has ANYTHING to do with what he does on the field to resign their hog fan status. You are too [CENSORED] stupid to root for our program. Go cheer for Liberty university or something.

[auburnhater]

Yes! He asked for forgiveness. Let's forgive and move on.

[beantownhog]

Yes! My stomach is  churning  over the thought of losing him--it's like losing to Bama, LSU, Auburn and Ole Miss on the same day.

[North hog]

As a Hog fan hell yes. I do have a problem with him lying though and dipping his pen in company ink. That is an issue of integrity. I get we all make mistakes and should be given the benefit of forgiveness, but accountability has to factor in.

[mindtoxicity]

Yes.

He's paid to coach the football team... not to be a priest or something. His personal life is his personal life.

[Wild Bill Hog]

Why would I not?

[pigfeet]

YES!

[RepubliHog]

Of course!  We hired him to win football games not to be our moral compass.  if you are sitting at your computer right now disappointed because your ideal man of ethics screwed up that is your own fault for putting him on a pedestal.  Put your all your faith in any man on this earth and you will find yourself disappointed. 

I have strong Christian beliefs and my heart hurts for his family and I will sincerely pray for their healing and cohesiveness, but that is BP's job to right that ship.  I hate that he made those decisions.

I never put him at a standard of anything but being a good coach and winning! bottom line!  Now I do think he needs to man up and take responsibility to get the respect of his players.  As far as gaining my respect he shouldn't worry about that I pay my money for him to win and that's what he does so WE BETTER KEEP HIM!

[zane]

Frick yeah!!!!!!

[arcowboy]

The problem may be this will ruin his focus. It takes a lot of time to get this out of your head. Example Tiger Woods and experience.

[Catfish Joe]

Don't get me wrong, I know it should be a stupid question. I just want a 100% undeniable united RAZORBACK front telling Jeff Long that "Bobby Petrino is OUR coach, and to bring him back!!"

[hawgsrule218]

Fire him and make an example that immorality will not be tolerated and wins do not matter.


Signed,

Ronnie Floyd

[hoghearted]

Never a problem with his job performance. Why would we trade a thoroughbred stallion for a unknown pig in a poke?

[arkansasborn]

Absolutely!!!!!!! :razorback:

[HatfieldHog]

The evening of the revealing of this "Scandal." 

This may be the dumbest and most inappropriate poll I've ever seen!

See ya

[ArkieBrat]

Voted YES...damn straight I want CBP as our head coach!

[RazorPiggie]

Sure why not.

[code red]

Only God can judge.  This is gonna get complicated.  Does the girl keep her job?  It is a slippery slope.....but I do want CBP as our coach....I am disappointed to say the least.  If he worked at any other job it probably wouldn't be an issue...he would be at work tomorrow.

[hogchic2001]

Absolutely. He made a mistake in his personal life...I pray that his family can heal from this. He is an outstanding coach. We are lucky to have him as our coach.

[311Hog]

does the fact it was with a recent UofA hire who is a direct subordinate to Coach Petrino not bother any of you?

I voted yes btw because i want him to stay as our coach, but man he could not have picked a worse person to have an "inappropriate" relationship with, how is that working relationship going to function ? i am sure the office will be a wonderful place to be and she is in charge of recruiting wow that will work out great i am sure.

[HogginKYup]

Hell yes! We are all human. He apologized. I accept, though I didn't need an apology. That apology belongs at home and I'm sure he's already done that. Ready for our run again at the NC. I know of no better coach to lead us than the man we have right now. Go Hogs!

[hoghappy]

Yes, Yes, Yes

[jgphillips3]

Yes.

[Murr]

This is a personal matter for a public figure that represents the U of A not BYU.

CBP stays; his bank account might be lighter, but he stays.

Louisville's basketball coach had an affair a couple of years ago and he is still there and took them to the final four this year.

[Dr Carl aka Shorthog]

While this leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth, yes I do. I guess I am a forgiving guy.

[Catfish Joe]

Found a facebook group with almost 600 members and growing that want CBP as their head coach.

Help them out:

[s.a.m.]

Yes.

But for his own longevity purposes he better keep winning.

It's funny how 5 win seasons sharpen fans' memories of "missteps" made by their leader.

[JohnnyReb]

Yes!
People make mistakes. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

[BILLYBOB]

No. Sadly, I say he has to go...or at least be suspended for the season.

He's a great coach. Best we've ever had. But he's totally out of control. Screwing around on his wife in front of his four kids, screwing a subordinate, lying about it.

Hes going to lose the respect of many of his players and coaches. It is going to kill recruiting. Its going to be HUGE in the national media...He's going to be an embarrassment to the university.

Smite away.

[Potosihog]

I am possibly one of the most conservative people on this board and I say yes. Im dissapointed. I hate it for him, his family, her fiancee, and our program. But I believe in forgiveness. And it is not just because he wins,, although I am honest enough to admit that it makes it easier.

[razorbacker3]

yes. Long will have to reprimand Coach, but dismissal is not justified.

[swineology]

Coaching yes, morally no. Jeff long doesn't want this on his resume

[311Hog]

i just dont think you can fire a guy for having an affair. Punishment surely, but straight to termination?  naw that would be hard for me to believe.

[DC HOGFAN]

Hell yes. No doubt.

[Iwastherein1969]

Coaching yes, morally no. Jeff long doesn't want this on his resume

Jeff Long won't be long for the UA if he fires Petrino for this. Jeffy had better consider his own future....if memory serves, he was the guy who was saved from himself when Tommy Bowden ( Jeff Long's 1st choice) refused the job based on the Good Lord telling him to stay at Clemson....you see where that wet dream got him...retired...Jeff, better think long and hard if you are considering firing the best football coach the UA has ever had

I'm upset he wasn't wearing a helmet.....the other stuff not so much
