Petrino Finishes Staff, Thinks Ahead

Petrino has finalized his staff, complete with two holdovers (Al Pupunu and Patrick Libey) and plenty of faces that are either familliar with Idaho, the Northwest or coaching with Petrino himself. “I wanted to have people that I felt comfortable with, people that had either worked with me before or worked with people I really trust,” he said. “So it’s kind of a family tree, and that’s how a lot of staffs are put together.” Petrino said he'll share playcalling duties with offensive coordinator Kris Cinkovich. The whole offensive staff will be involved in game-planning, he said, and Cinkovich will give his input during games/Josh Wright, SR. More here.

Question: Do you think Petrino did a good job selecting his staff for Idaho Vandals football?
