Fiancee of Jessica Dorrell No Longer Listed on UA Website

A third person with ties to the athletics staff at the University of Arkansas and the Bobby Petrino case is no longer listed on the school's website.

Josh Morgan, the fiancee of Jessica Dorrell, has been Director of Swimming and Diving Operations.

However, the UA's media relations person has told us by phone that Morgan is still on staff.

Dorrell, 25, the woman named as having been riding on Petrino's motorcycle in last week's crash, remained employed by the U of A at last report.

In last night's Petrino firing announcement, UA Athletic Director Jeff Long revealed that 159 people had applied for the job Dorrell has as Student Athlete Development Coordinator in Recruiting.

Long said Petrino was on the selection committee that chose her for that job, giving her an unfair advantage.

Long also revealed that at some point Petrino gave Dorrell 20-thousand dollars, a fact he says they both admitted.

The AD would not comment on if any action would be taken when it comes to Dorrell's employment and her future with UA.
