Not sure other than money why Bo would leave for the SEC. Again it wouldn't be for the competitive advantage as Nebraska is just as big of a name school. Nebraska is probably better off these days than UT anyways.

First link to come up for Pelini news:
http://www.rantsports.com/ncaa-football/2012/12/06/college-football-rumors-bo-pelini-reaches-out-to-tennessee/
My thought on Pelini is that his seat is starting to get warm after the championship game debacle last weekend. If they go on to lose to Georgia, that will mean that he's never had a season with fewer than 4 losses as the coach of the Cornhuskers, not to mention he's 0-3 in conference championship games. And with a new AD taking over next year, who knows how short of a leash he'll have.

Not a bad hire. Will be interested to see how the offense does in the Pac-12, considering they'll have to score 50+ to keep up with Oregon, UCLA and USC.

Good for him. Better recruits. Better money. Stable conference. I like it.

if you are a UC fan do you just jump off of a bridge now or later when the next coach leaves you in 3 years?

UC needs to get in a real conference instead of trying to champion the Big East as anything but a joke.

They'd make a decent MAC team. Better than fucking UMass. It'd add another decent squad to NIU, Kent, OU and Toledo. And be better for them than staying in the Big East.

It'll be very interesting to see how Kent does next year.

UC should petition the B12... they took WVU you'd think they'd take UC.

Here's the question I'd have about that: Isn't UC's general fan support a lot less than WVU's? In Morgantown, they have NOTHING ELSE to get excited over besides incest, so they're the kind of team with a lot of attractiveness due to fan support. I don't know if UC has that sort of "it factor", as they're in a city with multiple pro sports and other things going on.

Just asking...I don't really know. It just seems that in theory that WVU would bring more to the table as far as intangibles go.

Didn't be have chances to go to some nice schools?? He must see the end at Boise is nearing.

Wanna talk about an overhaul though. They'd have nobody to run his style of offense.

Bielema was probably going to accept another senior transfer. Whoever the QB coach has been needs fired. They haven't developed anything lately

Boise got hung out to dry on the Big East mess, so Petersen has to leave now to go to a power conference

I agree, I think the time is right for Peterson to get out of Boise. Would love to have Peterson in the B1G!

Wisconsin with a likeable coach, I wouldn't be able to take it. They were easy to hate with douche bags like Alvarez and Bielema.
