Boise State's Petersen won't miss the now Vols' Dooley

Dooley has spent time trying to figure things out on the other side of Wilcox, and that experience was a big factor in his decision to hire him.
The loss of Wilcox could be a setback for a team with national championship hopes this season, but at least it might be partially offset by Dooley making the road to another conference title a bit easier.
"I was very, very impressed from the second Dooley got there," Petersen said. "He is well, well organized, well thought of in coaching circles without question. I think he did a very nice job at Louisiana Tech, and every year we could feel those guys taking steps in the right direction and he was doing some very good things there.
"I think Tennessee plucked him out at just the right time, I really do."
Ideally though, Petersen might have liked him to look elsewhere to pluck a coordinator.
