Is Petersen related to everyone here?

I don't know why y'all are jumping on me for questioning the dogma around here that's he some elite coach. This is honestly the first time I've heard of him getting talked like this. I've never seen him listed as a top coach in the game. I've seen David Shaw get more hype.

I'm simply not getting where all this Petersen is elite talk is coming from. It's the first time I've heard it.

Because he’s what UT needs.
A coach who can do just that flat out coach

I'm absolutely not claiming I'm right, I just think it changes the narrative when words are attributed that someone didn't use. It's leading and unfair to folks that weren't here that night.

Fair play, and apologies for sounding persnickety. The point of my original post was Atl alluded to a plan behind the plan...that he liked it ... and being the solid Vol and individual he is I personally would say if HE likes it I’m (and probably most reasonable vol fans) will probably like it.

Then there’s D4H, who seems to find a way to s*** on any party with irrational and unbalanced post additions ... of course Peterson as a next line of action isn’t acceptable to him.

"First time I've heard it". I've figured it out DFH is Hyams.

128-28 lifetime coaching record. Made a nationally relevant program out of Boise with a bunch of 2 and 3 stars and had some impressive wins.

But he sucks.

Boise State never played anyone. And what he did at a lower level is beside the point. He's been a power 5 coach for 4 years now at a major program. Who cares what he did at Boise. What he's doing right now in Washington is what matters. And I'm not seeing much to be impressed by.

His teams were bad his first two years and although they have good records on paper the last 2 years, they've played very weak schedules. I can't think of a single marquee victory for Washington the last 2 years.

Not saying he's a bad coach. I'm simply saying I don't see the hype. Chip Kelly was 10x the coach at Oregon that Petersen has been at Washington.

I'd take David Shaw as well. Now, it's time for Groo to make his daily appearance and pat you on the head before sending you back to troll other threads.

I guess the fiesta bowl was nothing then...

A bunch of nobodies as far as ratings go came and took the win from a high powered Sooners squad.

Chip Kelly left Oregon because he’s a cheat and a fraud
Chip had a flashy offense but got worked in the title game
Chip is a wild card just like Gruden
Chances are extremely high that Kelly wants another chance at the league. Then what? Another Lane?

We're talking quality of coach here not whether we can get him.

I'm simply comparing Chip Kelly's accomplishments at Oregon to Chris Petersen at Washington. Kelly was significantly better.

I just don't see where this Petersen is elite talk is coming from. His record at Washington says he's a good coach. But it definitely doesn't support the opinion that he's elite. That's a very select group. A group I've never seen Chris Petersen mentioned in.

I've heard David Shaw get mentioned as elite coach more than I've heard Chris Petersen.
