Boise State head football coach Chris Petersen, in the midst of an unbeaten season, sits near the top of the short list for big time college coaching openings all over the NCAA. Petersen is in his third season, and is 31-3 in that time, including the Fiesta Bowl victory over Oklahoma in 2006.

A number of big coaching opportunities are out there, including at Washington, where Ty Willingham will not return for 2009. Amid scores of early season firings, Petersen is rumored to be the name circling at a number of places, but Pete isn't buying into it. He is comfortable in Boise, but worries about the recruiting aspect more than anything else, and keeping his guys up to date on what is happening.

The Broncos are 8-0 after a 49-0 beatdown of New Mexico State on Saturday, and looking to continue their WAC winning against Utah State in Boise this Saturday.
