Jessica Dorrell’s fiance, Josh Morgan news update

Bobby Petrino wasn't the only one affected by his affair with Jessica Dorrell to leave Arkansas. Dorrell's fiancé Josh Morgan, who was the director of swimming and diving operations for the Razorbacks, has been removed from the swimming page of the university website.

However, an Arkansas spokesman said Morgan is still at the university and listed in the campus directory. He said law would not allow him to discuss more about Morgan's status.

Early Wednesday, a website called swimswarm.com reported that Morgan had left his position with the University.

However, Josh Morgan is no longer the Director of Swimming and Diving Operations at Arkansas. It is now swimming-news.

The unfortunate affair has cost him his job (whether it be from intimidation, firing, or resignation is unclear). Former graduate assistant Megan Haskins has been promoted to take over his spot.


Morgan, similar to Petrino's wife, Becky, and his four kids, becomes the collateral damage in what has become an ugly story for Arkansas. It's easy to focus on the primary characters in this mess and forget the people it's affecting the most. Neither Dorrell nor Morgan have commented since news of the inappropriate relationship broke last Thursday and Dorrell remains employed by the university.
