Jessica Dorrell put on paid leave

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas says Jessica Dorrell, the 25-year-old football department employee whose affair with former football coach Bobby Petrino led to his firing, has been placed on paid leave by the university.

University spokesman Steve Voorhies confirmed Dorrell’s leave Friday morning, saying the school would issue no more details because the situation is a personnel matter.

Dorrell, a former Arkansas volleyball player, was a Razorback Foundation fundraiser before her hiring as the football team’s student-athlete development coordinator by Petrino on March 28.

Her salary is $55,735.

Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long said Petrino gave Dorrell a gift of $20,000 before her hiring, and phone records show the two exchanged more than 4,300 text messages and nearly 300 phone calls over the past seven months.

ESPN – Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long made it perfectly clear what he expects from his staff as he put coach Bobby Petrino on leave for keeping him in the dark about a sordid-looking relationship with a female employee.

What wasn’t as certain is how he’s handling the fallout for the 25-year-old former Arkansas volleyball player and current Razorback Foundation fundraiser who a friend says isn’t returning phone calls from friends and was operating “in safe mode.”

“We feel like we have to do all we can right now to protect her,” said the friend, who also played volleyball at Arkansas and spoke on condition of anonymity. “She’s done so many great things, but all of that is wiped out in the eyes of some people now. She’s not a bad person.”
