....not really. Patterson is one of the best coaches in the game, and I honestly think Petersen is as well. We'll see about Sumlin, he's unproven, but promising.


Patterson took over a 11-1 TCU team. Dirk Koetter and Dan Hawkins were the ones who built up Boise State. Art Briles built up Houston.

BTW, do you know Houston's record 2 years ago when they lost their starting qb and receiver? It was 5-7 in the CUSA

Patterson has sustained that program, fielding some of the fiercest defenses in the nation year in and year out while in a MWC that also contained a solid BYU and Utah team. He's also beaten solid OOC teams such as Boise State, Wisconsin, etc.

You aren't going to find many people that don't love that dude as a HC.


Hawkins was a great coach for Boise, sucks that he flamed out at Colorado. Peterson has taken that program to new heights, had them recruit better than they ever have before, and has his team beat more talented teams on the regular.


I'll go ahead and tell you that both of them would be huge upgrades over Dooley. Hell, they'd be upgrades for most teams out there.
