No knock on Washington, but I'm surprised he couldn't get a better job than that.

Boise St had a mediocre year...maybe he sees his window of opportunity closing. If he wants to stay on the west coast, what better job is going to open up anytime soon?

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Better job for him?

I don't think there is any such thing.

He turned down Stanford, UCLA and USC before.


And fuck you fucking douchebag retard.

LOL, no shit.  Why go to those pressure cookers when he can be successful without having to deal with the big city California media?  Fuck that, he's going to go through life on cruise control now.

:yes:  I thought that was always a thing with Petersen.  He just doesn't like messing around with the media a whole lot, even moreso than most coaches.

I am looking forward to the Ice Bowl in Waco on Saturday.  20s and freezing rain?  Ah yeah those Texas players are going to love that.

You can win big at Washington. But the expectations aren't to win big every year, and you can't possibly do worse than Ty Willingham.

Yeah that is what Notre Dame thought.  Then they hired Charlie Weis.

This happened at the Arizona State - Arizona game and imo is even more awesome than the Auburn return for a touchdown:

God I love college football.

What's grandpa yelling at the beginning there?  Gimme the ball, gimme the ball?

Charlie Weis > Ty Willingham. Charlie Weis was a terrible coach, but he took over a badly floundering program and got it into back to back BCS bowls. I know there is a strong case that Ty Willingham had more success than Weis, but Willingham was a shitty recruiter. Washington let him play out the string and you saw what the effect was. ND pulled the plug early.

If I found out that a meteor was going to destroy the planet earth and everything on it, I would have some joy in knowing that Larry Coker was about to be pulverized.

However, UTSA has won 7 and 8 games in its first years as a FBS school. They won enough to get bowl eligible this year. I have to respect that.

Rumours are swirling that Carey may stay another year.

I suspect that is about 85% wishful thinking.

Sankey hasn't decided either, imagine if they both came back?!

Man this has been one intense OU/OSU game.  I know the fucking Sooners are going to screw Texas in the end though.
