His record at Arkansas was 34-17, got them to a BCS bowl and had them ranked 12th and 5th in the final season rankings his last 2 years there. He went 8-4 at Western KY last year.

While he may not exactly be a fine moral standard we are talking about college athletics.

Charlie Strong who got the Texas job was 37-15 in his 4 years at Louisville and never had them ranked higher than 13th and that was good enough for the Texas job.
i know all that, i know he's a 'winner'. i'd no sooner support petrino than i would a trainer with great stats who's a cheater.
