Chris Petersen thread (merged)

[westennvol]

This coach is better than Nick Sabin imho. If he had our roster last season he would have a national.

He is a walk off grand slam hire that is the only candidate I would put over Gruden. One of my favorite coaches. JAV did say we had some contact with him. Perhaps he wants to be at a pace that takes football more seriously

Serious?

From the Gruden thread:

SIAP but I just saw this.. In regards to Peterson..


"JAV says we have had contact with him. Brad hensley (whoever that is on TOS) says that his agent contacted us 2 weeks before butch was fired. Says his agent wants to move him and that he does not get along well with their AD. In a side note his buyout is only 1.2 - 1.5 mil and he only makes around 4 mil per year there. That would give us some room to give him a raise. Also says that we have had at least 2 face to face meetings that he knows of with Scott Frost with one of those being when our plane was tracked to Tampa last week."

Offer him $6.5 - 7 and give him the same assistant coach budget that is rumored in Grumors and this is the Grand Slam hire!

agree!!!

He isn't happy about the Pac 12 lack of exposure but no chance of this happening.

I hope he isn’t happy and money talks.

Did that long before this post!
Why don't you take your head out of Alabama's a##.

Mullen or Matt Campbell. I think one of these two are our next coach.

I'd offer him everything Gruden wanted or damn close. Chris Petersen is not turning down 10 mil and complete control. I just don't see him turning that down.

 

[Big Z]

He only makes $4 million a year? Throw him an offer that doubles his salary and let's get serious about winning again

No! Not Big, expensive or explosive to me.

Wait a minute, I'm wrong, just looked at the actual contract. It's just 3 mil. Dunno where the article got that from.

Guess it's my battered vol syndrome kicking in, but I'm preparing myself for Brohm or Schiano. Can't and don't believe in home run hires at UT.

***Edit. NVM. See your new Post***

But that 30 million is what washington would owe him if they fired without cause.

 

[GetEmVols]

I heard on the radio he may have some interest and may have been contacted. If so he definitely moves to number 1 on the coaching list. Lets hope he is tired of the West Coast and lack of publicity.

I wouldn't be surprised because we always hire someone that isn't on the expert's list. Homerun

My money is on Mullen or Franklin

FWIW it has been stated on this board that those medical needs are no longer in the picture.

looks like you're right Why the time was finally right for Chris Petersen to leave Boise State for Washington

that is one rumor that has been around here for quite some time, and goes back to his days at Boise state. this was debunked 4 years ago!

 

[raynochonspeed]

He has been my dream hire since we jettisoned Fulmer. Thus, my avatar - which hasn't changed in 9 years.

This is the optimal timeline.

Forgot about that. He has taken the conference to task for not pushing back against TV deals/ midnight kickoffs

Gruden’s not coming and Belichick has a job. Sorry

And? How about University blowing 340+ million on Neyland. Don’t buy the cart before you buy the horse.
