DeBoer:

I have that hat.

All Husky hats are shit AF in comparison to the OG Don hat.

And 49 years ago @RaceBannon called for his firing.

Winter quarter 1975 I sat between Charles Jackson and Wayne Moses in freshman anthropology. They said the new coach was insane and that they could barely walk

I quietly chuckled to myself and thought - good

Then I did my part to keep them eligible

I dealt with Don a lot while he was at Kent State. First thing to know is he is incredibly bright. He learned a lot at Kent State and fought some demons. He's a bright, articulate, charming, engaging guy who is also competitive as hell. He's appeared to put his demons behind him.

You're going to love Coach James. It will be interesting to see who he fills his staff with. Knowing the competitive nature of Don, I'm sure he negotiated a large assistant salary pool. If he gets Tosh Lupoi on staff, watch out. Tosh is one of the best recruiters I've ever dealt with. He's currently at San Quentin.

Don is an outstanding recruiter and phenomenal working with QB's. He trusts his guys and has an edge. Guys love playing for him.

Washington didn't hit a home run with Don James. They hit a grand slam.

50 years but still

This is your last warning.
