Mel Tucker

He's on there.

quote:

Bob Stoops or Peterson could walk over next week and have a smooth transition getting new Coordinators/Assistants and killing it in recruiting

---

The fact that O is being retained for the year suggest that it will be neither of these two. I would love Peterson though.

quote:

---

Not immediately taking over but starting a transition

But that's not what they are doing.

Chris Peterson

Resigned from Washington because of stress and anxiety...his words

No way in hell he could deal with the white hot spotlight that is LSU football.
