Different JL Smith
editThis bio is linked to the "flying aces" list and improperly arises when you click on John L. Smith the US Marine Corps pilot. This segment is wrong:
Arkansas On April 23, 2012, Smith was selected as the new Captain of the Flagship University of Arkansas following Bobby Petrino being fired. Smith has hired Jessica Dorrell as Recruiting Coordinator.
It is Petrino who hired Dorrell, not Smith. Hiring Dorrell is why Petrino was fired for violating the conflict of interest policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.167.84.189 (talk) 19:39, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

John L. Smith fired?
editIt states John L. Smith was fired today, but there is no source, and I can't find anything to confirm it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.179.114.122 (talk) 04:19, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
- This was simple vandalism and was removed 20 minutes after it was added. You got unlucky and read the article in the short time the nonsense was there. Feel free to take it upon yourself to delete such nonsense if you see it - anytime, and in any article you wish.
