Why would Peterson go to Wash and not USC?

Sorry if Germans.
Just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

USC is a douche-school. Petersen is a good man and wouldn't be a good fit there.

Better fit for him. Likes the Pac. NW. Doesn't want a high profile gig. Honestly, I'd prolly go to Washington over USC also. Seattle is awesome

I think he got his start there.

Doesn't want to live/work in the hood?

Seattle is much closer to Boise than Los Angeles is.
Lower cost of living
Better medical care
Air isn't complete shite
There's MANY reasons why you would choose Seattle over Hollywierd.

Dude runs closed practices and does the bare min media stuff. USC is the highest profile HC position as far as media. He also has a child with medical needs and there is supposed to be a great hosipital there with what they need. That alone is one of his greatest concerns.

Probably didn't want to deal with the super-douche AD they have there at USC.

USC is no longer the job it once was. The location of the school sucks, the fans are a bunch of idiots who expect to be as good as they were under Carroll and it's not going to be fun having to recruit against Jim Mora Jr. Sark had his work cut out for him that's for sure.

Ummm, L.A. or Northwest for a guy that does not want to be in the media a ton and apparently likes shitty weather. I would prefer Washington over USC when looking at family places to live.

Peterson is a bird of different feather. Not a guy that's fueled by the things that fuel other big name coaches

He has a child with special needs. They have found good doctors in that area of the country and wanted to stay close to them. So the Washington job was better due to the proximity to his doctors.
Plus I dont think he wanted to have his family living in L.A.

Agreed on the douche school part, and he prolly knows that sanctions will likely follow Kiffin and Orgeron

Because southern California is not in the Pacific Northwest?

Correct me if I am wrong, but Haden interviewed Peterson and decided to go another direction.
According to an article I read, Peterson made it clear he was interested.
It wasn't Peterson's decision not to go to USC.

1. Seattle >>>>>>>>>>>> Los Angeles
2. Closer to Boise, better for his family
3. Potential to build a perennial PAC12 power without the pressure and media focus at USC

All but one prior post is wrong.
Petersen interviewed for USC job and didn't get it.

He knows he isn't as good of a coach as the media makes him out to be. He can probably win 7-8 games per year in Washington to keep his job, but he'd never return USC to the promised land.
