Last spring I was returning from a Dragons game (don’t ask, left at halftime) as coach was taking the light rail back to Husky Stadium after WASHINGTON was the featured half time guest.
That’s when I knew we had the coach. A blue collar, lunch pail to work kind of guy that is making millions of dollars taking public transit. He also had the sense to leave the Dragons game as quickly as possible.
I told him “good luck this season coach” as I got off my stop so I take at least 69.420% credit for this seasons success. Ya I know cool story fuck off, I’ll make another post like 4 years from now.

This makes me love him all the more. I would’ve tackled him right there on that train platform.
…is how stoic he is on the sideline. Downright Wooden-esque. It’s really something.
People wonder how his players are able to deliver in the clutch, over and over. The answer is multifactorial, of course. But one reason has to be the example he sets on the sideline. He will work over a ref once in a while. But when the game is on the line, DeBoer is utterly poised and stone-faced. It sets a tone.
Tonight, I re-watched the Sugar Bowl. Specifically, ESPN’s “Command Center” telecast, which is a split-screen with continuous cameras on both head coaches. Sark has matured some from his UW days, but he still paces around a lot, makes faces, chatters on his mic, and manifests nervous tics. Big stress energy. By contrast, DeBoer is an absolute rock on the Husky sideline, no matter how insane the shit gets. In fact, the higher the stakes, the more zen he exudes.
Does a head coach’s demeanor influence his players in those moments? I mean, DeBoer’s Huskies are 25-2, with so many games going down to the wire…
I also noticed after Germie muffed the punt that DeBoer was the first person talking to him calming him down. Most coaches would have just ripped him a new one.
Sark exudes my living room energy to a T. Luckily only my wubbly bubbly furballs meow and get nervous because of it. Not like I'm sending them into battle over here.
If you can't tell, I just got out of a 10-year relationship. Not with a cat; an American woman. And she took my dogs with her. I wish my dogs would come back.
What does wubbly bubbly mean and what happened with your American woman?
She left him for saying things like wubbly bubbly furballs.

One of my favorite posts ever but I bet an honest lens correction or jacket pat would take him down a belt notch or two. Not saying he's Gumby by any means. Don't get me wrong.

You nailed it. DeBoer didn’t hug —— he made a correction. I could tell he was pissed but I guarantee he made it a teaching moment and told him to have a short memory.
I specifically pointed it out to my gal who runs a large company that the kid was out there for the very next opportunity.
That’s how you build lifelong winners. That young man would crawl through glass for DeBoer. I was lucky to have leaders like that. One of my bosses said “I will always underwrite honest mistakes”. He did. I would go through a wall for that man.

Been trying to put my finger on what this reminded me of all morning. Ted Lasso. Say what you want about the show, it’s corny, but there’s a lot in there that isn’t. Primarily, the little details matter the most. This is a weird little thing that is fucking cool as shit. This guy had an obligation that he probably could have had a driver and a handler take him to, but took the light rail instead because he isn’t full of his own shit like legitimately 99% of his peers are. Lucky to have him.

When DeBo is makin' the ladies coo, that's when you know you got it goin' good. Chris P was a silver fox as well from what I've gathered over the years. Maybe not peak Kyle Whittingham silver but the silvery sexual appeal was certainly there. Don't ask me how I know. The point is UW is swingin' some heavy bats with the ladies. The ladies, I said.

I’m hearing he’s good in the sack.
"Im hearing"
Grl, spit them deets. How big is he. Aint got time for games.
Btw, I'm not convinced that's DeBoer and still have suspicions that we are being strung along by a mad genius OP. If I had that idea I would do the same thing. Wouldn't you? It's pretty fail-proof and madly funny.

Only the ladies? 😉
My friends and I after one game got into a very detailed discussion on how we thought each UW football head coach would be in bed (working chronologically backwards all the way to Jim Owens). Heh. That was fun. 😊

And, who hung the banner?
If memory serves (I was very drunk) there were awards handed out for different categories, but I think we ultimately gave Marques Tuiasosopo the “all-around” gold medal. (We still had to put an asterisk by it in the record books though since he only coached one game. He was the “incredible one night stand” I guess you could say.)
