If Chris Peterson wanted LSU as much as I think JDR wants LSU, don't you think you would be hearing his name a lot more?

No. I really don't. I really don't think the next coach will be JDR, Saban or Spurrier. As far as the talent recruited to Boise goes, he was their OC for 4 years before becoming a head coach, so I assuming that he had some hand in recruiting that talent. As he has been a college coach since 1987 he has had 20 years to learn how to recruit.
So, he hasn't coached in the SEC. Neither had SOS when UF hired him. But they both had learned the college game. I think we need to be looking for a successful college coach first, and second, one with the potential to stay a while. Peterson is both.

Anybody that it takes 20 years to learn how to recruit...I'm not interested, it's not brain surgery!
I hope LSU gives him a look if he's interested! I would take him in a second before Saban or Spurrier.
And I like all for the criteria you've laid out...(young, up and coming head coach at a small successful program, etc.) if it comes to that.
BUT, really think the JDR move, while not the norm, could be a great fit!
