    Ducks might actually have some competition in the PacNW.

    Great hire for UW.

    Who is Rob Ford?

    But anyways, good hire for U-dub. Pac-12 North may change from a Loaded Duo to a Triumvirate.

    We'll see how he does. Several coaches move up to a BCS school and fall short on recruiting. At Cupcake State all he needed were 1 and 2 star players to beat the league. Now he needs 4 and 5 star players. And the competition for them gets really stiff. That said, I do like him as a coach.

    Yes but those 2 and 3 star recruits beat Oregon, UW, ASU, Oklahoma, TCU and Louisville. Peterson can coach and with a better recruiting base a UW, we'll need to take serious notice in two years.

    A fair, but weak point. If he had that team in a BCS conference he'd have had 4-5 looses per year.

    I disagree respectfully but we'll see in two years. Next year wont count because he's got to get that team running his way and he'll need to iron out handfuls of wrinkles. Now in two years, I suspect going to UW may be a circle the game event. I think Peterson will be more successful than Don James and UW will be back in force as a national contender in under 4 years. We'll see!
