The second is that Petrino said that one of things that he missed about not having a coaching position this fall was being around his players and having the opportunity to get them to excel.

Excel was not a word scripted into the Louisville playbook last season. In the aftermath of Petrino's dismissal, his former players have not been hesitant to discuss the lack of a relationship they had with their former head coach.

Last month, at the end of Louisville Football Media Day, I shared an elevator with four players from the fifth-floor press box to the first-four exit at Cardinal Stadium. Three starters. One second-teamer.

They joked about several questions they had been asked about the difference in playing for Petrino and their new head coach Scott Satterfield.

One said he was asked about his relationship with Petrino.

"Relationship?" the player said. "We didn't have a relationship."

Everybody laughed.
