    If you believe Petersen said no to USC, you're a dumb fucking Doog.

    Pat Haden Fucking Stupid deliberately chose Sark over Petersen.

    Tailgater-Baird is just too confused to understand the complexity of this hire.

    Yes, but I got a kick out of Baird's attempt, which couldn't make-it through the uprights because you know the old saw about how to keep coogs out of your backyard....... erect goal posts.

    I believe Haden was in Boise and interviewed Peterson on Sunday a day or so before it was announced that Sark had accepted the USC job. I also believe the report here in the Boise media that Petersen had withdrawn himself from consideration for the USC job before the Sark announcement. There are reports out of both Boise and L.A. that Petersen's interview with USC didn't go well, but two different stories are rumored as to why. From USC's perspective, they were surprised by how unreceptive Petersen was to accepting their terms and the story here in Boise is that Petersen could never accept Haden's conditions regarding media relations and public openness as contrary to his methods of coaching and managing a football program. Anybody who has interviewed from either side for a professional position knows that there are ways of saying no without even receiving an offer.

    Haden went for the guy who "gets it" in regards to Trojan culture. Which is about the worst kind of hiring decision he could have made. Trojan fans "get it" about Sark. They don't care if Will "Washed Up" Farrell is on the sidelines.

    Sark's wife wanted beauty tips from Gaga on Rodeo Drive.

    Petersen "withdrew" because Haden called him and told him no. That's how the coaching search game works. Letting a coach "withdraw his name" is a face-saving move.

    Well, from the looks of it, Steve must have gone Ike Turner on her.

    Ike Turner made worse decisions than Todd Turner

    Disagree. Beating up Tina is forgivable. Hiring Ty, the 1961 retro national championship, and the oh-and-twelve are not.
