SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Bobby Petrino could have hung up his whistle after a disastrous 2-8 year at Louisville before his in-season firing in 2018.

He doesn't need the money after agreeing to part ways with the Cardinals (for the third time in his career) for a reported buyout of $14 million.

But the 58-year-old Petrino, with a college record of 119-56, has coaching in his veins and he's not ready to call it a career.

The former University of Arkansas head coach, who led the Razorbacks to a No. 3 ranking in the Bowl Championship Series during a sublime 21-5 run in 2010-11 before a motorcycle wreck briefly derailed his career, has a different primary objective now.
