Bobby Petrino sacked from his Louisville Cardinals coaching position

Louisville fired coach Bobby Petrino as the Cardinals stumbled on a 2-8 record this season, a source told ESPN.

The University must repay Petrino $ 14.1 million over the next few years, the source said.

The Louisville season is over in a series of seven defeats and a series of defeats of the ACC of at least 18 points, or at least 18 points , including two defeats against Clemson and Syracuse over the past two weeks.

Yahoo Sports first reported that Petrino had been fired.

Petrino leaves Louisville with a 77-35 record in two periods at school (2003-06, 2014-18). It will be the first year that a team of cardinals trained by Petrino will not go to a cup match.

He is 119-56 in his career with Louisville, Arkansas and Western Kentucky.
