"Definitely better" is a stretch, Jimbo has won a national championship.Mad_Son said:
When I said Jimbo Fisher I actually meant Dabo Swinney. Pete is definitely better than Fisher although he is clearly no slouch. Clearly you look at that list though and we have one of those dream coaches that you always fantasize about when you're looking for a new one. Most of those names are the ones where you sort think it couldn't get worse and maybe that person could be better here with our iron laws or some crap...Dennis_DeYoung said:
Fisher is good. Dabo is good (though it's hard to really understand how or why). Bob Stoops is good, I guess. Who else is there? Petrino? Sure.Mad_Son said:Petersen is exactly where he was supposed to be at this point if he was THE guy. This is year 3. Sure, there could be some complete meltdown but that seems less likely to me than we win the natty. I don't think we win likely national champions (although I think we're good enough to get lucky and pull it off) but I sure don't think we're losing the rest of our games. Petersen is the guy. And everyone knows it.
Saban
Meyer
Harbaugh
...
Petersen is as good as anyone who isn't one of those three. Sure you can maybe add Jimbo Fisher to that list soon but Petersen is effectively an elite coach. He will be in high demand and compared to those other guys he is cheap, cheap cheap. It is a guarantee Oregon has reached out to him at this point and we're a long ways off from matching Uncle Phil's $10M/year. We have to do something soon, and if we don't do much now we'll be doing more later. Future dollars will be more as already noted in this thread. Just make his leaving us buyout higher now, make sure there are performance-based buyouts in our favor and get him locked in.
We are not doing better than Petersen right now.
Chip Kelly will have interest... but who else is there who would be viewed as a "sure thing" like Pete?
Pete slayed at Boise and within 3 years has us to a place we haven't been in 25 years.
If people think he is available there are like 7 programs who have coaches that would feel like he isn't an upgrade and the rest probably would.
The other coaches in the top 25 are as follows:
Paul Chryst
Gus Malzahn
Kevin Sumlin
Dana Holgerson
James Franklin
Kyle Whittingham
PJ Fleck
Mike McIntyre
Justin Fuente
Mike Gundy
Mike Riley
Mike Leach
Jim McElwain
Bryan Harsin
Jim Grobe
Who would you trade for Pete?
On this bored we talk about Saban and Meyer. Harbaugh has some love, but even he isn't good enough for people here (even though people love Chip, weird). It's nuts.
Pete is a top 5 coach. We can be a top 5 program with him at the helm.
If you know someone not named Saban or Meyer you'd rather have, please let me know... -
Let's also remember that we have not yet seen a complete Petersen team yet. He is doing this with Sark players and a transition recruiting class. Only the first and second year players are from a complete Petersen recruiting class.

Dallas, right?PatHadenFS said:Whatever he's paid in modern dollars will seem silly in 10 years. Harbaugh gonna be making 30 mil at Texas by then.

He's been arguing that since Tyrone. -

So you mean there are no sure things and that financial decisions involve inherent risk?!?!?!?!!!????!???111???dongman said:Pete is one of the safest bets in CFB and a really great person. Obviously keeping him around should be a priority, and a good move. But Ten years to anyone is a risk, no matter their level of performance at the time the contract is signed. That said probably a good move as it's hard to find a way to imagine him underachieving.

Quite honestly I think he's a good risk -
We have no idea if Peterman can win without Sark's players
