    The former aide of fired University of Arkansas football coach Bobby Petrino has stepped down from her position with the team, school officials announced Tuesday.

    Jessica Dorrell's decision to step down as the football team's student-athlete development coordinator was mutual and there are no immediate plans to re-fill the job, athletic director Jeff Long said in a statement.

    Dorrell will be paid about $14,000 to settle "all matters between the parties."

    "While Ms. Dorrell had a legitimate right to apply for and accept a position within the football program, the circumstances surrounding the former coach's decision to hire her compromised her ability to be effective in such a position," Long said. "She and I believe she should have the opportunity to move on."
