Bobby Petrino had signed a long term contract with the University of Louisville. He was/is a fine coach who had coached his team to an almost perfect record. Many were saying that he had a chance for the National Championship this year. Bobby Petrino was on top of the coaching world. Then: Pop Goes the Weasel!
And....
He rewarded the confidence of the University of Louisville by jumping to the Atlanta Falcons of the NFL. Perhaps it was a lifelong dream to be a Head Coach in the NFL, but no one dreams of becoming the coach of the Falcons. But he jumped. He lost Vick. He lost games and he lost more games.
But, he was getting a bye. After all, he had lost his best player and the draft was coming and he was going to be poised to get some good players. Then: Pop Goes the Weasel!
But for Bobby Petrino the NFL stands for Not For Long. He's moving to Arkansas. Arkansas?
The people at the University of Arkansas need to realize that they have a coach whose favorite song is "Pop Goes the Weasel," and he will start his job by looking for his next job.
What a weasel!
