Another Chance

(Bobby and Jessica)

Here is an excellent article by Jeff Pearlman on college football in general and Bobby Petrino specifically.

Bobby Petrino, you may recall, was the Arkansas football coach who crashed his motorcycle outside Fayetteville earlier this year and failed to mention a special friend was riding along with him when the accident occurred.

His young mistress, Jessica.

The incident led to Petrino's firing by the university.  The coach was jobless for seven months until being hired by Western Kentucky this week when that school's former coach moved to another job.

Western is giving Petrino $850K a year on a four-year deal.

Pearlman thinks it's a bad move.

Sports Illustrated's Stewart Mandel has a similar but more nuanced view.
