I was thrilled when USC hired Sark because I was pretty confident that Woodward would fuck up the coaching search, and you'd end up with another Dudebrah or some other nonentity who would be pretty unlikely to turn the ship around.
Now I feel like roles are reversed. We're the ones with the multimillion-dollar intern, and you have a proven winner at head coach. Helfrich is going to get next year, and I'm hopeful (but not optimisitic - note the difference there) that he can fix the things that went wrong in 2013. Meanwhile, I find myself hoping (but not optimistic) that Pete will turn out to be another Dan Hawkins.
Not sure that Woodward deserves to lose the "pool boy" moniker just yet, but this was by all appearances a slam-dunk hire.

Anyone not excited about the Petersen hire, listen to the Duck. How many years have they been rooting for us to keep the coach we had?
If your rival hates your hire, you are good. -
Also see Harv's tweets

For the first time in at least a decade we have a better coach than you.
I was beginning to doubt this would happen in my lifetime. -
One of my friends is close with Thomas Tyner who said everybody hates Helfrich. Just sayin.

Frankly, the "insider" information (as I'm learning, complete bullshit) has been that Pete would only leave Boise for the Oregon job, and that we kind of had him in reserve as insurance in case Helf doesn't pan out. Well, you fucked us there too, if that is the case.
-
I guess from a Duck perspective you want Wilcox to get the BSU gig and then be available to step in at Oregon 2-3 years from now if Helfrich keeps shitting the bed.

Gotta strike while the iron is hot. This could be your Mora - off by a year and never to happen.AZDuck said:Frankly, the "insider" information (as I'm learning, complete bullshit) has been that Pete would only leave Boise for the Oregon job, and that we kind of had him in reserve as insurance in case Helf doesn't pan out.

If I were a Duck, I would have figured Petersen was probably not going to be head coach there when they promoted Helfrich. Last year seems like it would have been the year.

A lot of people wanted Pete last year, but the Quook faithful told us that the AD knew what it was doing.

Like all of you, I'm not sold on Wilcox as HC. I would take him as DC yesterday.
