Because there were a lot of big time coaches available at the time? Enjoy Petersen. He's so good no else is even trying to steal him. I'd rather roll the dice with Cristobal for a year or two than take Pete, make the playoffs once, get our asses totally kicked, then peter out for 4 or 5 years before getting fired.

    Pete is an excellent regional coach. One of the best. But he's too damn stubborn to compete on the national stage. Not taking the initiative and firing Smiff? Starting Jake Browning in 2018? If I were the AD of a lower tier program (think WSU or ASU), or any number of division II/III programs, I would be happy to have him, no question. He just simply isn't duck material, that's all.

    He'd be the best straight coach Oregon has ever had rather easily.
    We don't hire straight coaches.

    This is incorrect. Bellotti was a better coach before his wife went heavy on the sauce. He was tremendous then lost the fire and drug out seven years of half-in/half-out coaching.

    You'd have to be fucking retarded to say Mario is a better coach than Pete today. Pete is a very good coach, not a great one. There are only usually two or three great coaches in college football at any one time and none of them are sticking around at any Pac-12 not named SC once they start being great.
