No disrespect to USC fans, but I hope the Trojans stick with Clay Helton mostly because I believe they can attract a much better head coach.

With the talent that USC is able to recruit, I'd be terrified of a guy like Chris Petersen down there.

I can’t imagine Petersen would ever go to a big school like that. At blue blood schools you are more of an ass kisser to boosters, at UW he doesn’t have to kiss boosters asses. Your boosters do what they are told by coaches and AD’s.

Yeah that's what went through my mind as well.

Les Miles also comes to mind. A lot of experience with big programs.
His offense along with his play calling went big time stale his last few years at LSU and when he fvcked up not only did he only refused to admit it, he'd repeat it again.

It's looking pretty bleak for Cal and ASU to even make a bowl right now.

Well to be fair, that list has 9 teams and there's no way the Pac has 9 eligible teams. Looks like a lot of throwing things against the wall to see what sticks to me.

That's why I said like Chris Petersen.

I can't imagine how I'd feel if he left us for anything other than retirement. I do get the impression he wants to stay here his entire career.
My biggest concern about his happiness here is how much he clearly hates the media and that aspect of the job. But the sports media will be way worse in any other large market or at any “bigger” P5 school, so that makes be feel better.

He has a playful (mostly) adversary with Softy, but it is tame as fuck compared to other HC's in other markets. I think it would take some major falling out with the school like happened to Don James for him to leave voluntarily.

He's a good solid coach, but the question is still out there if he can take the program to that last step level and be a cornerstone in the playoff hunt at least half the time. We need him to take a step to another level in hiring coaching staff for example.
