    I know a coach who went to the Natty in year two and is 2-1 against Chris Petersen. You guys should hire him, I hear he's looking for a new gig

    Yes
    He was lucky with getting Luck and Hogan while coaching under Harbaugh (though he probably helped recruit them). He has often struck me as a guy who is a better recruiter than coach.

    2017 will be a good year to judge him without a Luck / Hogan (and McCaffrey too).

    One of my favorite reoccurring themes here is that an active coach with 3 Pac titles in 6 seasons, 2 Rose Bowl Wins, and 4 Top 10 finishes gets no love from HH. That there is some funny chit.

    Same with Stoops. 3 title appeances, one win. Consistently pumps out 10+ win seasons. Made the playoff the year before UW did. He's not even mentioned by most.

    I voted no because there is an unwritten rule about rankings players or coaches without championships above one that has.

    Other than Saban, I'm not sure there is another coach I would trade for, especially at UW.

    Meyer has had a better career, but he burned out at Florida and could again at Ohio State.

    Harbaugh is too psycho.

    Dabo is good but I question if that good ol boy bullshit works as well in Seattle.

    Same for Fisher.

    Not sure who else can legitimately be in the conversation.

    He's not (yet) a top three coach IMO, but I agree, he's probably the best fit for UW, and he's a damned good football coach to boot.

    Can't speak for anyone else, but this is the first time since Don James was head coach that I haven't been apprehensive about the guy leading the program.

    Blount is wearing a helmet while sucker punching a guy who has his helmet off. Blount is a total douchebag.
