Perhaps he's turned over a new leaf in his adult years, IDK. But I doubt it. I'm not a fan.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
I am curious about Bob Petrino Sr. There is a banner hanging in the Harlowton gym with his name on it as he took the Engineers to the 1964 Class B basketball state championship. Was there any questions about his character. He seems to have bounced around a bunch of small high schools and sometimes that indicates some issues.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
I am seeing a few similarities with Petrino and Beavis Hauck. Idaho left the FBS, Beavis left the FBS, both have over rated sons that played on their teams.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
Somebody once told me there are two kinds of people when it comes to Petrino. One is people who despise him. The other are people who tolerate him.91catAlum wrote: ↑Fri Nov 19, 2021 9:16 amYes.Rich K wrote: ↑Fri Nov 19, 2021 8:52 amI am curious about Bob Petrino Sr. There is a banner hanging in the Harlowton gym with his name on it as he took the Engineers to the 1964 Class B basketball state championship.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
I don't have an opinion on the guy, but you really felt like he didn't want to be there when they went back to fcs. His brother is obviously a good coach but ethics of a snake.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
Bobby Petrino started coaching early with Carroll College football. He is popular because he has been on the winning side. The last thing I heard on him was that he was the head coach at South Carolina and had a drinking problem- was cheating on his wife with another woman and wrecked a motorcycle with this woman on the back. This is probably why he is at FCS Mo State. I think most people that know his character would probably say he has had issues, but how can you really judge someone without really knowing them or his family?
Just the same I hope we beat their ass if we play them on Dec.4

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
It was Arkansas, not South Carolina. And since his family is from Helena, a lot of us do know them.Lonepine wrote: ↑Mon Nov 22, 2021 12:26 pmBobby Petrino started coaching early with Carroll College football.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho
As I recall, after the Arkansas fiasco, there was a year off, then to Western Kentucky, then Louisville, and now Mo.State. Weren’t there rumors about an affair with one of the Administration’s wife at Louisville too?? Can’t remember for sure on that one but seems I recall something on that front. Maybe we need to lock up the girlfriends and daughters if he comes to town?!91catAlum wrote: ↑Mon Nov 22, 2021 12:31 pmIt was Arkansas, not South Carolina.

Re: Petrino out in Idaho

Obviously not, since he's coached at 3 different schools since that incident.Rich K wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 11:59 amBobby’s career as head coach ended a decade ago…. Or did it?

Winning seems to count quite a bit in some circles.

Yep, if a program is desperate enough, they'll give almost anybody a chance regardless of character or reputation.
Or maybe Bobby P is just a really good salesman.? idk.
