Earlier today Arkansas announced that Paul Petrino was returning as its offensive coordinator to replace GarrickMcGee, who left to become the head coach at UAB. While that coordinator slot may have been filled, head coach Bobby Petrino now has the other coordinator position to fill in the coming weeks. In a press release, UA announced that defensive coordinator/secondary coach Willy Robinson has “resigned” his post. Before the release was issued, rumors had begun circulating that Robinson either had been or was on the verge of being dismissed.
“I want to thank Willy Robinson for his role in helping our defense, which he leaves in better shape than when he arrived,” the head coach said in a statement. “I have the utmost respect for Willy Robinson as an individual who wants the best for the young men he coaches. I give Willy credit for his part in the building process the last four years and wish him future success.”
Robinson had spent the past four seasons as the Razorbacks’ coordinator.
