ESPN- My favorite moment of the John L. Smith era at Weber State -- all 4½ months of it -- was the crock pot full of alma mater nonsense he served during his introductory news conference.
Smith gave something back to Weber State. It's called a kick to the groin.
The next time the Bo Ryans of the world try to explain why they won't let a player transfer without restrictions, I'm going to remind them of this latest hog and pony show. It is Reason No. 9,213 why college coaches have a major credibility problem.
Just 11 days ago, Smith was at Weber's Stewart Stadium as his team finished spring practice with the annual Purple and White game. Smith even did a chalk talk with fans and boosters before the game and introduced his newly hired staff.
THE TIMES PICAYUNE- Although Johnny Jones needs no formal introduction to the LSU athletic family, he's going to get one today when he's officially announced as the men's basketball coach at a 1 p.m. press conference. But Jones already has been on the clock for three days since getting the word he had been hired by Athletic Director Joe Alleva.
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.
