    Bringing back Peterman would be a mistake for the same reason we? would’ve fucked up bringing Chip back.

    Chip’s ass is on fire at UCLA because he’s the same guy he was 15 years ago with the same methods and same stupid WTD OKG ideology. His recruiting sucks shit and CFB passed him by. He refused to adapt. When we had a chance to bring back after Meat left, I wasn’t supportive of it. We would’ve expected 2010 all over again and we would’ve gotten 7-5. His shit doesn’t work anymore, and even if it did, he refuses to recruit the talent to run it the way he wants.

    Peterman strikes me as similar. Don’t see him adapting to the game as it is now. Doesn’t matter if you don’t agree with how the game is run currently (I sure the fuck don’t) - it isn’t going to stop anytime soon, so you have to get on the train.

    In short, FYFMFE.

    I've never understood why they don't run the same offense they ran at Oregon...

    No idea how you can watch an offense run teams off the field for years and then go to some slow shit.

    The whole Chip schtick was that defenses couldn't catch their breath.

    Carroll?

    Yeah nothing scares kids away like a hyper energetic (he's not like the other old guys!) players coach known for wrangling in difficult types like beast mode and sherm that kids look up to

    Wild lol, in the football world carroll is literally a household name, he's in another hemisphere of public acknowledge

    My feelings about Petersen continue to evolve, and will continue to probably do so, especially in light of this week’s events.

    But sports, and hell - human history, is littered with cautionary tales of trying to bring back former leaders. Like getting back together with an ex, you quickly remember why you parted ways in the first place.

    Petersen’s fatal flaw is he’s too rigid and set in his ways. Maybe that’s changed, but I doubt it.

    True, but coaching has had this type of scenario happen successfully a number of times.

    Snyder at Kansas State was ancient as shit and had a better run in round two than in round one.

    One of the exceptions that proves the rule.

    Look, if Chris Petersen 2: Electric Boogaloo comes to fruition, I would very happy if it turned out to be a redemption arc, and that would be an amazing story if he learned from the past, grew, and came back to give us our title. All my past grievances would be forgiven.
    With the current roster situation, it's hard to envision a better hire. You can bring in a solid coach but there are big problems.

    Petersen has PROVEN he can take a pretty mediocre program and team to #4 in the country. The first two years were a complete culture reset and rebound with Cyler and freshman Browning teams.

    It has the making of a good redemption arc, keeps the program nationally relevant, and hopefully it's considered by all parties. I honestly think that would be better than hiring a Klieman or a uhhh, ummm, I don't even fucking know who else.
    You have the patience of Job.

    Peterman got a front row seat at what he needs to change up.

    Chip was busy starting race wars in Philly

    Substitution rules changed and defensive coordinators learned how to scheme for it. They caught up to Chip and he didn’t find a way to get back out ahead of it.

    That and he just didn’t have the guys to maintain it consistently because of his stupid recruiting style.

    Taking Kansas to 8-5 is pretty much the same thing as taking UW to 14-1 whatever Peet did.

    Yes. They are the same guy based on my 30 seconds on wiki.

    Lance Leipold HC Kansas: 109!!!-6 at Wisconsin Whitewater, whatever the fuck that is. Six Nattys in 8 years.

    Born and raised in Wisconsin and Nebraska.

    9-4 at Kansas last year.

    Chris Klieman HC KSU: 69-6 at NDSU.
    4 Nattys in 5 years.
    Worst finish was the final 4. 39-24 in Little Manhattan.
    2023 Pop Tarts Bowl Champion(print em!).

    Born and raised in Iowa and Nodak(I like to call it that).

    You missed my edit. I always find a needed edit and it bites me sometimes. It's my biggest flaw. But you all know how it is. You say somethin, you post, you change it up, but someone has already responded. It's wild, right? I know we've all been there.

    It has the making of a good redemption arc, keeps the program nationally relevant, and hopefully it's considered by all parties. I honestly think that would be better than hiring a Klieman or a uhhh, ummm, I don't even fucking know who else.
    Absolutely not
    Let's hear your alternative strategy? Who's out there to hire that would be better than a year 3 #4 finish?
    Taking Kansas to 8-5 is pretty much the same thing as taking UW to 14-1 whatever Peet did.
    Are we talking about Kansas or Kansas State dude here? I'm pretty sure I've seen both lobbied and I'm all mixed up.

    Kansas Leopard guy went 9-4. Not gonna bother going further into this analysis right now.
    Yes. They are the same guy based on my 30 seconds on wiki.

    Lance Leipold HC Kansas: 109!!!-6 at Wisconsin Whitewater, whatever the fuck that is. Six Nattys in 8 years.

    9-4 at Kansas last year.

    Chris Klieman HC KSU: 69-6 at NDSU.
    4 Nattys in 5 years.
    Worst finish was the final 4. 39-24 in Little Manhattan.
    2023 Pop Tarts Bowl Champion(print em!).


    Ring a bell or two?
    Ding dong, yes.

    I'm also gonna throw out both Nevada coaches because why not?
    Well now you need to educate me.
    You missed my edit. I always find a needed edit and it bites me sometimes. It's my biggest flaw. But you all know how it is. You say somethin, you post, you change it up, but someone has already responded. It's wild, right? I know we've all been there.
    Same. All the tim.

    As much as I liked Peterman, the dude didn't like where the recruiting game was going then there is no fucking way he comes back to this shit show.

    Besides, the guy walked away once. Recruits and players will always wonder when he'll call it quits again.

    We need to move on from this one.

    This is probably correct. But still, I want Dannen to have that meeting.
