I began following the Cards when Frank Camp was coaching and have suffered through the worst of times of Louisville football and enjoyed the good times of Louisville football. The tough years outnumber the good years. What am I saying? Number one, I'm old, Number two, the younger Cardinal fans have been spoiled by recent success on the football field. Take a look at the following won/loss records of previous Cardinal head coaches: Frank Camp 118-95-2, Lee Corso 28-11-3, T.W.Alley 9-13, Vince Gibson 25-29-2, Bob Weber 20-35, Howard Schnellenberger 54-56-2, Ron Cooper13-20, John L. Smith 41-21, Steve Kragthorpe 15-21, Charlie Strong 37-15 and the combined record of Bobby Petrino 77-31. We are currently living the dream. Enjoy the moment young fans. I personally don't not see any of our past or current coaches on the Mount Rushmore of college football coaches. So let's slow down the desire to replace Coach Petrino. He is truly one of the best coaches in the game today. Had a wise man tell me once " Great players make great coaches". So in closing let me say, quit your whining and crying and ask yourself is the Louisville coaching job a stepping stone job or is it a job that coaches around the nation covet? Our fans need to suck it up and move forward . Coach Petrino has not forgotten how to coach! He will bring us back.
