Chris Peterson to UW

[Hurricanemike32]

Washington got an upgrade out of the whole situation.

Totally agree.

Heres another spin on Peterson taking the Washington job that just kinda popped into my head.

Maybe he is ****ed at USCw for passing him up and preferring to hire Sark so he took the Washington job as a personal vendetta to prove USCw wrong and make them pay for passing on him. Especially since he's waited quite some time to leave Boise St. the fact that he was finally ready to leave for Southern Cal and they end up publicly passing on him, it almost seems like he had to take the Washington job and make sure he showed Haden he is flat out dumb.

So maybe Peterson ended up taking the Washington job:

1. To join the PAC with a competitive team that many analysts are saying is loaded up on talent so he can spank that USCw *** year in and year out and make Haden regret his decision

2. Because it was made public that he pursued and interviewed for the USCw position so maybe he would have lost some fan support or even player support in Boise.. maybe a stretch here. But this theory would kind of support the notion that after going after and failing to get the USCw job, Peterson kind of had to move on from Boise.

3. Or maybe Washington is just a better team in a better conference than Boise so Peterson was just genuinely happy to get the job despite missing out on Southern Cal

Not saying Peterson is a bad coach.....I think he's solid BUT (my brother is a huge Boisie St. fan):

He's REALLY dropped off the last few years in the recruiting game. TONS of misses.

He's failed to recruit the quarterback position effectively post-Kellen Moore. In fact he didn't even want to offer Moore a scholarship. His primary recruiter (the D-coord that followed Sark to USC) had to give up a scholarship on the defensive side of the ball to get him in.

The program is REALLY downward trending @ Boisie. They aren't "young" and will probably be worse off next year than this year. They just lost to San Diego St. a couple weeks ago (which proceeded to get blown out by UNLV the next week).

This is probably more of a case of getting out when the getting is good than anything else.

He is a virtual recluse when it comes to program exposure and media savvy. He'd be a horrible fit in a large media market.

He said a ton of people are throwing their O-Coord. under the bus this year (ala D'Onoffrio) even though Peterson is the brains behind the operation (similar to Golden and the D). All their fans want to fire the O-Coord.

I don't think the guys' a "sure deal home run" by any means.

He may not be a home run, but one thing we know for certain is that Sark wasn't. Guy was average.

Peterson is much more accomplished than Sark. That is indisputable.

Who knows how either will perform at their future homes?

Of course it's disputable. Peterson has yet to coach a game in a BCS conference. See TCU and their venture into the Big 12.

Or ****, Ned, even Dan Hawkins.

Who cares? It only matters to the extent its affect Kaaya's decision. Whoever got the USC job was going to recruit well-- it is USC. But they only touch our recruiting base, and we just make raids in theirs. Plenty of competition for national 5* anyway. As long as we can get CA qbs when needed, I'm good. We need to start playing better and beat the crap out of people to start picking off USC recruits. Washington has been nothing since our boy Don James, RIP, left. I know those sobs broke our home win streak, but it took a old Cane to do that. Except for Don, they have been and will be nothing. USC, however, is the school most comparable to THE U. Small, private school that kicks the crap out of the rest of football for periods of time. Oh, and gets hammered by the NCAA at every opportunity too.

That's the weird thing. Peterson and Patterson have both fallen off the last couple years. It's naive to think that TCU has fallen off just because they made the move to the Big XII. Both Boise and TCU were winning BCS games afterall. You would think that they both would have been able to parlay their tremendous success the past decade into solid recruiting classes moving forward. Especially since TCU moved to the Big XII.

Fact is, both teams are LESS talented then they were 3-4 years ago. Goes to show you the margin for error is pretty small. Patterson is a great defensive mind, his offensive recruiting has been less then stellar the past half decade though.

I'd take Patterson over Peterson FWIW.

And he was 92-12.

Patterson was also coaching TCU in a BCS conference. Some of you duller folks just spit **** out like dummies and then other dummies parrot it. Unlike Patterson who didn't upgrade to a high-level Big 12 program, Coach Petersen will be coaching Washington in the PAC 12, not Boise in the PAC 12.

It's funny to see two dudes who have done nothing but make excuses for Corch Al's foibles at UM to be taking Coach Petersen to task for winning 90 percent of his games over 12 years. LULZ.

 

[Ned_Zawalski]

And he was 92-12.

Dan Hawkins' 53-11 mark at Boise translated into a 19-39 mark at a Colorado school who hadn't been that bad in 20+ years. But you go on with your "92-12 against absolutely no one while declining over the last three years" routine. Peterson for President.

You're a dolt, CaneWasher. CU was down when it hired Hawkins. Unlike UW's situation with Sark, CU's HC prior to Hawkins didn't move on to a promotion. He got fired. Hawkins also benefited greatly from having Petersen as his OC at Boise.

Using your putrid attempt at logic, every team should hire its HC from Miami (OH) because it's the cradle of coaches and produced such greats as Parsighian, Boner Hayes and Glenn Edward Schembechler. Those great coaches came from Miami (OH), so that means every HC that comes from there will be great. Isn't that the other side of your retarded claim on Hawkins sucking, so every coach from Boise must suck?

 

[Ned_Zawalski]

Only white trash like TheFranchise could make that logical leap. Yeah, that's exactly what I said, crack *****.

Colorado was worse after Hawkins and still can't recover. But he was 53-11 at Boise. You're apologizing for a guy who went 19-39. That's par for you.

What part of my post is "taking him to task"? Just making observations and most of those observations come from my brother that follows their program like we do the Canes. I think Patterson is a really good coach, Peterson is solid but not outstanding. I'm not making over the top bull**** statements like you do.

I've NEVER given Al a pass on this defense. I've never gotten involved in the scheme/talent debates because it's obvious it's a bit of both BUT I recognize it's his responsibility to get it fixed. If he doesn't get it fixed then he deserves to be fired. No excuses.

Just because I'm not taking a **** on Golden at every turn (like you), doesn't mean I think he's perfect. I'm just holding out hope, based on his strengths, that he'll get us to where we want **** head.

Peterson will return this program to the heights that the late, Miami Hurricane Don James had them at.
