Look, Jon Dennis has already said this better than I can, but since you either didn't read his post or chose to ignore it, then I'll try to sum up as best I can.
To put it simply, there is simply not a coach I can name that you will accept as equally or better qualified simply because, in your mind, there is no other coach that compares to Petrino. Every time someone mentions any other coach that they would rather have, you dismiss their choices outright for increasingly ludicrous reasons. I can probably name twenty coaches that I would rather have, but you'll just tell me that they are either unavailable, coach in crap leagues, haven't had the success Petrino has had, coach in the NFL and know nothing about college football, can't recruit, etc. etc. etc. etc. Ad Nauseum.
And dude, I'm not singling you out. People on both sides are using equally implausible and fallacious reasoning to either bash or praise Petrino. Look, I fully admit that I have an extreme bias against Petrino, but even I admit that he'd probably be a least as successful at Auburn as he was at Arkansas. I admit my bias against him, you need to look in the mirror and admit your bias towards him and allow yourself to at least consider the possibility that there might actually be at least one coach out there that might, MIGHT, be able to do a better job at Auburn than Petrino.

Other than them being a larger school, with a larger, more affluent fanbase, a bigger stadium, better annual attendance, more overall victories, more SEC victories, a higher overall winning percentage, a higher SEC winning percentage, more SEC championships, more bowl appearances, more bowl victories, and more recognized national championships, I can't think of a damn thing.
