Labmo had the same record against Oregon at Peterman, which is sometimes forgotten.
2 years isn't enough for DeBoer was my initial thought
Having a tough time replacing him though
Had Petersen won a Rose Bowl or playoff game...

But did Peterman throw wide, inside the 10, when he had Napoleon Kaufman?
On the other hand, Pete helped turn our? program around by 70-21-ing our? asses in Autzen. Most of us with half a brain were already over the Helfrich experiment, but the severity of this loss to this team sealed his fate.
So, Pete could be up there. Oregon wouldn't be a perennial playoff plunger recipient without Pete.
Jim Owens. Three Rose Bowls, won two of them, transformed west coast football in the early 1960s. Probably overstayed his welcome in the end. Retired after 18 years at 47 years of age. I interviewed him before he died. He was apprehensive but was assured I wasn't on some mission to attack him for alleged racism in the late 1960s.
I actually put him on there as a troll job to see if some posters would get worked up. But as @PurpleBaze would say... THUD
Come to think of it, Enoch Bagshaw probably deserves it more than DeBoer. Two Rose Bowls in the 1920s.
Petersen would be the 4th coach. It's a matter of opinion but recent history and how he was here for 3x the length of DeBoer, 95% of the fanbase is putting Petersen there.
Yes there wasn't much to shit on w/ DeBoer's tenure compared to Petersen, especially his bookend years but still.

I think the Deboer thing was a joke (wink, wink) but there's really no way to not have Petersmans fourth, even with all of his faults. He basically recruited a shit ton of the 2022-23 teams and the reasons those guys didn't bolt when Lake was fired was because of his ability to sign the right guys. Him also identifying and developing a massive amount of NFL guys helped put the program back on the map and helped its legacy.
@DerekJohnson, for shits and grins, would you do the top 4 worst coaches Mt Rushmore? Please and thank you.
