SIU is losing defensive coordinator Jason Petrino to North Dakota State
This will be a big hire for Hill. He’s had some continuity there for a bit. It will be interesting to see if he brings any assistants with him. Would think a new D-Coordinator would want some of his own too.
Hopefully we keep our LBs coach. That group played some great football in 22.
I was somewhat surprised to see this. Our defense has seemed to underperform under his tenure, although not glaringly.
They've had some studs, though. Hopefully it was Hill doing the recruiting, not Petrino.
Looks like Bobby left another program in great shape:

Here's a great quote from Sports Illustrated:
"The disingenuous drifter is on the move again. He is moving to his third job in a month, a whirlwind even by his standards. Left behind are the usual empty words, false promises and disillusionment."
The guy is bad news. This story is a great expose on who SMS sold their soul to for a few cheap wins.

I love it. I knew when he was hired that MSU was just a pitstop on his journey.
Hopefully that program regresses to what it was just a few years back. The MVFC doesn’t need a good MSU program.
The guy is clearly a cancer and should be on a list of “do not hires”.
But, but, but.....
They're going to go to FBS.....
SOMETIME.....
Bobby will stop drifting as soon as he finds a 26 year old sexretary who likes Harleys.
