No he’s not, or he’d be gearing up for a Toy Bowl!Wonder how long he’ll last. At least he’s starting at a level he should be.
I have no doubt he will impart all of his vast running back knowledge on UT-Martin’s players and in no time, will take one of them all the way to the Heismann trophy just like he backpacked LJ to the win.It was announced that Nick Petrino has been hired as a running back coach at UT-Martin.

He’ll be lucky to move up from UT Martin’s staff to Trinity’s staff.Whether he can coach or not, it'll be good for him to get out of his dad's shadow.
So another member of the world's worst coaching staff ends up not missing a paycheck. And this guy supposedly the WORST of the lot.
By the way, he's also co-offensive coordinator...let's not undersell him.
Just like Mike Summers was gonna rescue the offensive line and anyone's better that Todd Grantham and Peter Sirmon. We know a LOT about football around here...

Where in there did I defend a 2-10 record?Have you ever thought of becoming a fan of another university? I mean really who in their right mind would defend a 2-10 season?
I'm wondering what that has to do with his son getting a Div. 1 OC job a few months after he lost his job here?...And is that you kissing CBP a$$? Just wondering?

You're morphing the narrative or again claiming it wasn't your narrative.It wasn’t the world’s worst coaching staff. It was a really bad P5 staff that was dramatically overpaid. The QB coach from Louisville having to land at a really bad FCS program (they were 2-9 last year) is only further proof. That being said I wish Nick the best of luck as he steps away from his dad’s shadow.

Doesn't matter. All of these former coaches have proven in spades that they were deserving of assistant coaching positions, or they wouldn't have been rehired this quickly.
It was simply a way for some U of L fans to convince themselves they had the right solution to the problem. You really don't know. Your new staff keeps losing roster players and is getting commitments and interest from even lower rated recruits...
My narrative was that the staff wasn’t ACC quality and was overpaid.

I don't give a damn how "endeared" you are--be assured that's not my intention.You are hilarious...but your resilience is almost endearing.
My narrative was that the staff wasn’t ACC quality and was overpaid. The assistant coaching jobs they have landed is validation of my narrative. The fact that this crew was coaching at an ACC school was bad but to top it off they were one of the highest paid staff’s in the league. Ridiculous!
And if you want to comment on the new staff I suggest you create a new thread.

You CLAIM a nuanced narrative that no one BUT you remembers. What the rest of us recall are bold, unqualified statements that our prior coaches were unfit for their jobs and couldn't get jobs elsewhere in football. History is showing otherwise. For crissakes--Nick Petrino, offensive coordinator!
And even if I accept your after-the-fact narrative, you haven't been "validated" of anything. Coaches who were just pink-slipped landing football jobs this quickly is hardly validation of any over-the-top criticism. I'm glad all of these guys are moving on instead of getting bogged down in the aftermath of the hate that the haters in our fanbase have become too good at...
No one's gonna similarly buy that successful coaches suddenly go in the dumpster. There are reasons that oversimplified hate narratives miss entirely. And intentionally...2-10 that’s all anyone needs to hear. A rational person would understand that a program doesn’t go from 8-4 to 2-10 in a season. That just doesn’t happen in a healthy program. You can try to peddle your narrative but no rational person will buy it. No one.
So were you against Bobby’s termination? Were you against Satterfield’s hiring?You're morphing the narrative or again claiming it wasn't your narrative.

Except when the successful HC has never proven that any of his programs could maintain success beyond 4 years.No one's gonna similarly buy that successful coaches suddenly go in the dumpster. There are reasons that oversimplified hate narratives miss entirely. And intentionally...
Where do those deductions come from?...So were you against Bobby’s termination? Were you against Satterfield’s hiring?
What "waste"?...Zipp you have spent a lot of time pointing out financial issues would think you would agree with Hank's point about waste here?
Adopting knuckles' narrative...He really showed us. He went from a P5 school with a 100 million dollar athletic budget to a mid level FCS team.
I think many of the posters here don't know jack about coaching and cause-and-effect.You think we should have kept trying to win the Acc with UT martin's offensive coordinator?
Irrelevant to the discussion...Do you believe that Petrino and staff were going to turn it around?
That's perhaps a discussion for a different thread. Has nothing to do with these coaches almost immediately getting new coaching jobs...Except when the successful HC has never proven that any of his programs could maintain success beyond 4 years.
And that, is neither oversimplified or hate, just facts.
That's perhaps a discussion for a different thread. Has nothing to do with these coaches almost immediately getting new coaching jobs...
So now is the argument "won't make as much money within 90 days"?Nick Petrino was making $200k/yr at Louisville. He is now in a position that pays around $48k/yr. However despite making 1/4 of his prior salary...that is better than BVG. He was making nearly $1.0M/yr at Louisville. He accepted a position that pays in the $150k/yr range.
No, it’s germane to this thread as a rebuttal to your assertion that successful coaches don’t simply go into the dumpster. The historical record indicates that Petrino’s programs do indeed go suddenly into the dumpster. It only makes sense that similar P5 programs would be wary of hiring coaches from his programs into comparable positions with comparable compensation.That's perhaps a discussion for a different thread. Has nothing to do with these coaches almost immediately getting new coaching jobs...
