CSU assistant Peterson aims for DU job
If Bill Peterson has his way, he won't have to log too many miles en route to his next job.
Peterson, an assistant coach at Colorado State the past seven seasons, hit the recruiting trail after the Rams were eliminated from the Mountain West Conference tournament last week, so he was on the road Monday when he learned the Dale Layer era, as well as Peterson's job security in Fort Collins, had ended.
Peterson, though, hopes his coaching days in Colorado are not finished. He has set his sights on the vacancy at the University of Denver.
"It's a sleeping giant," Peterson said. "I like to take programs that are struggling and turn them into winners, and I've done it before."
Peterson plans to get his résumé into the hands of DU athletic director Peg Bradley-Doppes by the end of the week.
