Will Louisville fire Kragthorpe after only two seasons? They should. :?
Pre-mature.
Since he's been there 17 players graduated from the 10+ win season Petrino had and another 18 are no longer on the team with 4 of those being medical. The others, as in non-medical, aren't there because of problems that Kragthorpe inherited.
I have first hand accounts of some of the things going on when he was at Louisville, some second hand accounts that are just as bad.
To say the least, when Arkansas was looking for a coach I told a few Arkansas friends of mine he's not the guy you want at the helm. They chose to turn a blind eye.
I can assure you, if Petrino is there for a couple of years you are going to start seeing things come to light that will not put that program in a good light. And, I'm not talking results on the field but looks coming from offices in B-ham and in Indianapolis.
Kragthorpe is a hell of a coach. But, his "rebuilding process" is a much longer road than the one Saban has faced.
Just to put this in context...think about what Bowden had to say in his little report on what he inherited after Pat Dye and you'll get part of the big picture.
