He's left 100% of his division 1 head coaching jobs after 2 years. Is that the track record we should be looking at?GrundleStiltzkin said:Look at Deboor's career track, Doogs. It's not solely about money, he's been moving up and up and up his whole career. If any of this surprises you, Dwagman is you're speed.

Why would Deboer leave a team that plays for championships for a team that loses bowl games?

Hello darkness my old friend
It's the sound
Of silence -
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Really I'm sad, oh, I'm sadder than sad
You're gone and I'm hurting so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad (sad, sad, sad, sad) -
Kind of agree and hope you are right but KDB is one to say I CAN follow Saban because I am the best. Can't argue with that. The backwards living conditions (inbreeding, etc) ? Who knows?creepycoug said:Don't see it. KD is not a southern guy and has been in the business long enough to know what Alabama is. It's different down there. It's a whole other world and a culture that sharply departs from upper midwest. UMW fits in the PNW, but the south is a different animal.
He also knows that following Saban is career suicide. I'm sure he's keenly aware that he could float between 9 and 11 wins here with decent bowl performance and have his seat remain nice and cool for at least 5 years.
Alabama is going to be a radioactive place for at least a decade.
Unless he's the kind of guy who loves money enough to encourage a bidding war, and he doesn't seem like that kind of guy, I just don't see it happening.

Makes me feel a lot different about that interview.☝️☝️🤔 -
If he's leaving please don't go on local radio. I get it not turning down Bama, but I don't want to hear it.Quietcowskee said:

I plan on taking a bath while holding my radio above the water tomorrow morning, just in case.WoolleyDoog said:

It certainly ~~~feels~~~ that way. I would even include his longtime multi decade loyalties to his assistants.creepycoug said:Don't see it.

No way Bama lets him bring Morrell and his guys. And Grubbs seat would be warm after some of the shit he called this year even going 14-1. Debier would probably be cutting throats of guys he has worked with for nearly 20 years. This is a guy whose pre game ritual is walk on the field passing out long hugs and I love yous.
The marginal difference in money (if there is one) to Deboer is basically zero. 10 mil a year at UW for 7 years or 15 mil at Bama for 4 years. There is no way UW is balking at 1-2 mil a year difference. But Bama comes with significantly different deliverables.
I don’t know deboer, but if his public branding and philosophy is at all close to his actual personality I’ll be surprised if he leaves.
