Rule #67-- Head Coaches Should Never Buy Mansions
SEC SPORTS REPORT-- Rule #67 states Head Coaches should never buy a mansion when moving to a new coaching job. Too many what ifs????
Football coaches all over the country have vacant homes in cities where they used to coach....
Big homes give the false impression of security. There is no security if a Coach isn't winning and if you win too much you have to move to a better job. Either way, a big expensive home is a liability.
Flexibility is King.
High priced vacant homes are expensive to maintain. When a coach leaves a city, his reputation stays with the big house and usually the next owner wants the discounted rate with the purchase. In the end, lots of commissions paid out to real estate agents, lawn services and less leverage for a head coach.
Check out the latest coach trying to sell a big mansion. Bobby Petrino has two huge homes in Atlanta and Fayetteville.

More from Arkansas Razorbacks
Arkansas has fired football coach Bobby Petrino.
Razorbacks athletic director Jeff Long announced the news at a press conference Tuesday night. Long said Petrino was terminated with cause.
"There was no negotiation about how he could remain as our coach," Long said.
Long said he thoroughly reviewed the details involving a motorcycle accident that sent Petrino to the hospital with broken ribs and a cracked vertebrae.
CBS SPORTS- Arkansas freshman Marquel Wade apologized Monday for hitting Vanderbilt punt returner Jonathan Krause early, a crushing tackle that led to Wade's ejection Saturday.
Wade has not been suspended for the hit, which occurred during the third quarter of the No. 8 Razorbacks 31-28 win over the Commodores. The wide receiver, playing on special teams, said he thought Krause had the ball when he ran through the returner.
"I was just going out there doing 100 percent, trying to play my game and I messed up," Wade said. "I take all the [responsibility] for everything I did."
Through the end of July, here are the verbal commits for 2012:
1) LSU Tigers 18
2) Alabama Crimson Tide 14
3) Miss State Bulldogs 14
4) Auburn Tigers 13
5) Arkansas Razorbacks 12
6) Ole Miss Rebels 8

ALABAMA
Ha’Sean Clinton-Dix, S: Alabama boasts one of the best safety tandems in the league in Mark Barron and Robert Lester, but the 6-foot-1, 203-pound Clinton-Dix has the size and skill set to come in and make the Crimson Tide even stronger on the back end of their defense.
Cyrus Kouandjio, OT: One of the top offensive tackle prospects in the country last year, Kouandjio could provide some immediate depth. The Tide were already looking at moving All-SEC guard Barrett Jones to left tackle.
LSU
Jarvis Landry, WR: If the Tigers are going to make a run at a national championship in 2011, they’re going to need a lot more production from their passing game than they got a year ago. Landry is dynamic in the open field and should complement Rueben Randle and Russell Shepard nicely.
ARKANSAS NEWS- It’s no secret Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino pays attention to detail and expects players to do so as well. So it’s no surprise the ideology was extended to a dinner set up through the program’s student-athlete development staff.
The goal, according to assistant athletic director Eric Wood, was making sure players are prepared off the field as much as they are on it under Petrino...
