  2. Who is Bobby Petrino?

  3. Louisville 2006-2008 • Secretly interviewed for Auburn job • Atlanta Falcons 2007 (went 3-10) • Left team after 13 games • Arkansas 2008-2011 • Infamous mistress on motorcycle accident • WKU 2013 • 1 and done • Louisville (Again)

  5. Andy Staples: SI • "This is a results-oriented business, and Bobby Petrino, more often than not, achieves the desired result. I didn't hire him to be a good husband or to tell the truth. I didn't hire him to graduate players or to mold men. I hired him to win football games. If he does that, he'll probably leave for a better job even though we wrote a $10 million buyout into his contract. If he doesn't do that, I'll fire him…”

  6. It’s all about the W’s…or is it? • When you fire a coach after a 5-7 season…it’s about winning…right? • It doesn’t have to be about wins and losses. It should be about winning WITH integrity. • Stanford way vs. Louisville way
