Hogs' new offensive coordinator failed getting talented quarterback for Missouri State, but didn't settle for a no on first ask.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Do you think Bobby Petrino ever asked a girl out in high school if she'd already turned him down once? Did he go back and try again, hoping for the best?
Petrino was head coach at Missouri State when he first offered a scholarship to Green, who was a senior at Lewisville, Texas. Green was a 3-star recruit and the No. 21 dual-threat quarterback in the country. He opted for Boise State, redshirted his first year, started the second, and blossomed into a stud in 2023.
Petrino didn't just tell Green how good he was and how much Arkansas needed him. No, the veteran coach combined a soft sell with the constant attention before Green even agreed to visit Arkansas. It was his first visit after entering the transfer portal. In fact, as a 2020 recruit during COVID, he didn't get to take official visits before his freshman year.
