Petey's ego prevents experience OC hire again

Selects John Morton, wide receiver coach, as new OC. It looks like Pete's fragile ego couldn't handle an OC with an opinion or who actually may have some of his own accomplishments.

its not jonnie morton, the steroid using failed UFC fighter, former trOJan wide receiver

Its another John Morton who has been a wide receiver coach in a ton of places.

Maybe he hired a good assistant to begin with.

Petey might be the best coach in the Pac-10, is there really an argument that he has been making bad hires?

conflicting evidence

on one hand, you have Walker and Norm Chow

on the other, you have lane kiffen, ed oregeron (sp), and sarkisian. while sarkisian hasn’t coached a down yet, its suspicious when the fans of the team you coach (chock full of 5*s) are happy you left.
