#128: Life is Plan A...your sport is Plan B | Coach Chris Petersen (part I)
My guest this week is Coach Chris Petersen (aka. Coach Pete) a former College football head coach (Univ. of Washington Huskies, Boise State Broncos). He is the first two-time winner of the Paul "Bear" Bryant Award, which he won in 2006 and 2009. Petersen also won the Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year Award in 2010. At Washington, Petersen led the Huskies to the College Football Playoff in 2016, but fell to Alabama in the Peach Bowl. Petersen announced his resignation on December 2, 2019, to be effective after the team's bowl game.
