Hilltoppers Hire Petrino

15 minutes after the presser, Bobby resigned and took another job...but said that the memories he made at Western will last a lifetime.

Waatch out. He can flat out coach. I don't care if you like him or not he is a great coach. There is plenty of players back on this team. They will be a contender for a year or two. I sure he will be gone after 2 years and back at a bigger school. I think they play uk in 13' cats may go down again. If not it will be a good game.

WKU was 7-5, worth mentioning wins against horrible UK but when UK did have Max Smith who was playing at a high level, and a win against Southern Miss who played well against UofL in a rain storm game.

Guy at work and me were joking around about Petrino going to Cincy or WKU.

As a UK fan I see this as a threat. They have a cake schedule which Petrino might be able to rack up a lot of wins. Recent past WKU won over some recruits from UK, I don't know if they won over any from UofL or not.

WKU is a wonderful shcool, amazing, beautiful campus, great people. I can see Petrino building them up big.

Now the question is,,,Does Jurich go out and try to get a contract with WKU? To start a new rival in football, or does that help out WKU more than what is in UoflL's interest?

As a football fan I'd love to watch Petrino go against his former teams.
