Man, Jurich (sp??) the AD at Louisville . . .

[sonofdaxjones]

replaces John L. Smith with Bobby Petrino, and now may replace Petrino with Kragenthorpe (sp??).   All 3 were sitting D1 headcoaches prior to Louisville.

He's had 4 football hires at Louisville, and he may end up batting .750. 

Meanwhile TimJon WefaldWeiser replaces Bill Snyder with . . . Ron Prince.

Jurich also hired Pitino . . . which may lost its luster right now, but now a few years back.

I don't think Jurich needed Eddie Fogler to hire Pitino either.

I think Petrino was in the NFL when he was hired.

[sonofdaxjones]

Well, we're both wrong . . . he was Auburn's OC prior to going to Louisville, and he was the offensive coordinator and QB coach for Jacksonville in the NFL for 3 years prior to that.

Getting Auburn's OC is still really nice, considering they were a CUSA peon at the time.
