Rick was the last coach to engender mass psychosis about leaving even if lambo Dawgs hated him. He basically got fired for looking around and getting raises which is quite common really

People wanted Sark to get an offer. No one else was wanted at all.

James got offers all the time

None of us know DeBoer or what he wants

We just know he's good enough to be wanted

Gotta pay to play

    Kiffin should be their #1 target. DeBoer top 3 or 4 for sure, but SEC teams fire coaches that are winning if they don't recruit "the right way". See Mullens at Florida or the Boise guy from Auburn that took Saban into 4 OT or whatever it was.

    Regardless, anyone who takes the job is gone in < 3.5 years.

    Never follow the legend, follow the guy that followed the legend and got fired for not reaching impossible standards and/or stepping on the old guards toes.

    Its why it always felt like Lanning Sark Lane is the perfect fit, arrogant enough to think they can do it just as good.

    DeBoer and everyone around him loves telling the story about how his AD at Soux Falls had to push him out because he was too good for them and DeBoer is just a humble hard working guy...

    I think DeBoer’s end game is to win at every level so I think he ends up in the NFL someday.

    DeBoer should have been Bama's No. 1 guy from the get-go.

    Our only hope at this point may be that he's continuing to leverage other job openings to help he and his $taff and (most importantly) force UW's administration to go all-in on football, e.g. quit forcing the Athletic Department/Boosters to pay for the stadium renovation.

    Can't see KDB sticking around (nor should he) if UW's commitment to winning is closer to UCLA than those at Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, Oregon and any other school with aspirations of competing in the top tier of the B1G

    If DeBoer leaves and UW's administration still provides the same financial pledge to the program's infrastructure, that would the best consolation prize we could hope for
