Bobby Petrino, the disgraced former Arkansas football coach, is apparently returning to Fayetteville to serve as the Razorbacks' offensive coordinator just a decade after the revelation of his affair with a program employee. According to various outlets, the 62-year-old Petrino is negotiating an agreement with Arkansas. Petrino is now being investigated by the school, which fired him in 2012 after it was discovered he had an affair with a former Arkansas volleyball player, who was then hired and gave him a $20,000 donation. Arkansas is coming off a disappointing 4-8 season under head coach Sam Pittman, while Petrino spent the 2023 season as offensive coordinator at Texas A&M, which fired head coach Jimbo Fisher earlier this month. Despite the Aggies' disappointing 7-5 season, Petrino's unit continued to rank 25th in the nation at 34.2 ppg. Petrino served as the Razorbacks' coach from 2008-2011, leading the Razorbacks to a victory in the 2011 Cotton Bowl.
