I have a feeling this situation may push Petrino to a non-BCS program, Big East at best. The stuff he did makes him BCS poison for a decade, minimum.
And Dabo is gonna be at Clemson for a long time.

Shady as that program is, that would be too much for even them (although their fans would probably be in favor)

Don't think you have to worry too much about this scenario. Dabo is there for the foreseeable future.

That would be bad. My fear (and I was ridiculed) was that Ellis Johnson would be at Cow Tech. Worse than that would be Charlie Strong..
Time will tell; no need worrying about it

It will be a while, if ever, before Petrino gets another head coaching job of any significance.

Yeah, I don't think any AD is gonna have the ball bag to hire him anytime soon. He is going to be buried at a school like Furman or the Citadel, FAMU, someplace like that.
He will probably have to be an assistant at a small school.
Lets wrap our heads around this for a second: He paid a girl $20k to have sex with him! and out of arky's money!
Ally will beat the crap out of Uga.

I think Kentucky will be interested when they fire Joker after this season.

Would be awfully tough for them to sell their pseudo-religious shtick with Biker Bobby at the helm.

Why Charlie Strong? He's done decent things at Louisville but not anything that scares me as a USC fan. His taking the Tater job would not worry me a bit.

Petrino will probably end up in the Big 12 somewhere. He fits the outlaw image.

I think he's out of college football for a long time, maybe forever.

Not a big enough redneck. Hatfield did not speak with a southern drawl and didn't have that aw-shucks/BS persona and .... yada yada yada ... Tommy West. Tommy Bowden and Datboy fit the same mold. They can't help themselves. If he had the slightest bit of coaching experience, they'd hire Larry The Cable Guy.

Perhaps at Texas Tech after the Tuberville experiment inevitably fails.

They have a coach that won the ACC. Why would they stoop so low as to hire someone who can't even win the SEC West?

I can see him selling "hogs" at a Harley dealer somewhere in Arkansas.

Rev. Dildo didn't win the ACC. They have their 1.3 Mil. O.C. to thank for that.

Petrino will probably end up at some long lost school, seeking relevance again. Somewhere like SMU or Az. St. if he's lucky. Otherwise it'll have to be at some small school just trying to make some noise.

This. He's likely headed to the NFL as an assistant for a while, a la Tressel.
