    FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Bobby Petrino has improved every step of the way at Arkansas — not just his team’s performance but his image.

    The coach’s revelation Thursday of an inappropriate relationship and his attempt to cover it up now threatens to derail all the progress Petrino has made in four seasons.

    Arkansas is expected to return to spring practice Friday afternoon, led by a pair of Heisman Trophy hopefuls in quarterback Tyler Wilson and running back Knile Davis.

    The team will do so without Petrino, who was put on administrative leave Thursday night after athletic director Jeff Long learned Petrino had failed to disclose he had been riding with a female employee half his age when his motorcycle skidded off the road over the weekend.

    When you ride on a motorcycle with your secret lover that's half your age, don't forget to wear a helmet.

    Louisville would have him back, and give him a stipend of student ho's as part of his contract.

    Petrino apologized, saying "I have no one to blame but my penis."

    It's great to see there's still a program that places a premium on integrity!

    Yes, they can be added to the list that started with Penn State and Ohio State in the last year. It is finally becoming more common.

    Hondo in the Post had a great line the other day, to paraphrase: Petrino can now add "cheater" on his resume to "liar" and "quitter".

    Apparently his oldest daughter is the same age as Dorrell. That's just messed up.
