How likely is Peterson sticking around?

89ute

Honest question, I have no clue of course but you guys should.

If you take his word at face value, he's staying 10+ or until he's fired.

Shut. Up! And LEAVE!

He doesn't chase money and I believe he considers Washington a destination job that was plagued by some bad coaches and administrations.

He's sticking around longer than Whittingham is at your shitty high school stadium, that's for sure.

Nobody really knows. He could get hit by a bus crossing the street tomorrow. You never know. Cherish your loved ones.

You clearly don't know what the fuck you're talking about. It must be nice being spared the ravages in intelligence.

Are you kidding me? He has already gotten into it with the AD over assistant salaries, etc. Then your stadium is small enough to be embarrassing to the Pac 12, which is quite an achievement. He's already been in rumors with USC if they fire Helton. You are not, and never will be, a destination school.

If Oregon and Phil comes calling he is fucking gone before you can chug your next 2% beer.

Mike Bellotti, who was his HC at Oregon in the 90s, has said that Petersen has been interested in being the HC at Washington for a long time. Not sure if that means UW is his dream job, but I don't see him leaving for another college job, unless our admin chases him off.

Petersen leaving for another job would absolutely shock me, I don't see it happening. I don't think people understand how hard of a job being a head coach in college football is. Even if someone offers a college coach a bunch of money that coach doesn't leave unless A. It's an a big step up (minus Sark but he is special, literally) or B. You are leaving a dumpster fire. Petersen would have to be mentally challenged to leave Washington for any other job, especially since there is a reason they want him: they can't win. Why take more money to work harder at a job that is already hard enough when you can make more than enough at a place you've already got dialed in? Money only takes you so far and it can't buy you less stress. It still sucks to move everything, especially family. From everything we've heard about Petersen he puts his heart and soul into the game and it wears on him immensely.

Went to a wedding in Ogden in 1994. This was the best we could drum up for the reception. Fuck that place

Beer of that quality should be fucking illegal in all 50 states. The feds should be able to show up on your property, club you down, confiscate everything, etc, if you brew that kind of shit.

You're very late regarding the USC situation. It's rumored that he has turned it down twice. He also turned down Tennessee in 2009.

Our stadium is a beautiful place to take in a game. Size will come, money is better spent elsewhere to make our programs competitive in the Pac-12. (like salaries, just to name one of a zillion of our needs)

Seriously, honestly: why would anyone leave Washington unless they were fucking morons?

Honestly, Wawrshington is a fucking amazing job. If you get it rolling here (especially in the new Pac-10 landscape where there are divisions) you are pretty much guaranteed to be in the Pac-12 Championship game 4 out of every 5 years, sign 6-7 really good kids out of Washington every year, have packed stadiums every game, rabid fan base, beautiful setting, great uni to sell, etc.

Where's Pete going to go? Oregon? Tennessee? Lol. There are really only 6-7 other jobs that are 'better' than UW's in the NCAA, but the only one where you can live any place decent in Texas and even then as soon as you win 9 games the fanbase is going to want you hung.

Going conference by conference:

Pac-10
USC - great job because of the talent pipeline, but the locals don't give a flying fuck unless you are winning 11+ games a year in flashy style. Not what Pete is about.
UCLA - lol. NOGAF.
Oregon - at their height their stadium is like 50k and it took them 2 years to erode a 20 year run and we are already getting the best players out of Oregon.

Big-10
Michigan - great job. Bonus of idiot Ruth's Chris proprietors and daily body count updates from Detroit. Probably won't open any time soon.
Ohio State - see Michigan. Great job and uni. Fans are fucking lunatics, though. Columbus is boring.
Penn State - great job, legacy of pedophilia is pretty intense, though.
Wisconsin - basically UW without a lot of the isolation advantages and too much stiff comp. Plus Barry Alvarez looking over your shoulder. Their coach left for OREGON STATE.
Iowa - good place, inferior Wiscy.
Nebraska - great job, but why would Pete leave for it? You have to live in Nebraska.

Big-12
Texas - great job, great location. Only problem is dealing with a fanbase and boosters who are fucking insane and subject yourself to total scrutiny at all times.
Oklahoma - great job, you have to live in Norman, OK which would be like moving to a suburb of Spokane. Plus the Uni is shit.
Baylor - the good news is that there are no rules and you can get away with rapes and murders if you win. The bad news is that you live in Waco and are at a shitty uni run by right wing Baptists who don't think evolution is real. lol.

SEC SEC SEC SEC SEC SEC
Alabama - it's a great job because of the support, but you are at a completely shit uni, in the middle of nowhere, in a place full of hicks and hardwoods.
Auburn - it's Alabama with less support, more trailer trash and a university that always teeters on losing accreditation.
LSU - I guess it's a good job. Loyal fanbase. Lots of talent around. Shitty university, population 17 bad days from a race war at any time.
Tennessee - great job, have to live in Knoxville which isn't that bad, but the uni is shit and the fanbase doesn't GAF about Pete's values.
Florida - great job, great uni, insane jort-addled fanbase. This is a good one, but would Pete leave for it and move to Gainesville which is total bullshit? I doubt it.

ACC
Florida State - good job, ASU of Florida without good grad programs. Life in the Panhandle where you are Alabama with a beach.
Miami - USC of the east: good private uni in a great city full of Spanish speakers that DGAF about football unless you are winning 11+ per year. Also, hurricanes and the Haitian mafia.
Clemson - Live in the fucking middle of nowhere, mediocre uni, loyal fans that are mostly racist hicks; good job, but UW is way better on basically everything Clemson has.

OTHER
Notre Dame - live very close to where the KKK was invented, in a flat a shitty craphole so you can tell your kids fun stories about when Gary wasn't a toxic waste dump in the union days. Good uni, though.

Holy fuck, Oot POTD. He is gone when a real program comes knocking. He isn't getting the skill guys he needs at your school.

Not that I have a doog in this fight, but a real program has come knocking. USC did talk to him, seriously, a few years back, if SC poosters are to be believed.
