Quote: He would be the third coach in a row to leave Boise State with a sterling reputation. The first was Dirk Koetter, who went 21-28 in the Pac-10 over the next six seasons at ASU before getting fired. The second was Dan Hawkins, who went 19-39 overall at Colorado and 10-27 in the Big 12 over the next five. Success at Boise State, it appears, does not automatically translate to major-conference football.
garvin, you have a very interesting point but I think Peterson is different from Hawkins. Boise State Football is Chris Peterson. Hawkins did a great job with Boise but he didn\'t establish it as a national power year in and year out.
