    I don’t believe Lanning was offered.

    What program in their right mind would go after Lanning before DeBoer? There's not contest here.
    I'd bet my life savings he was never offered or seriously considered.
    Cope harder. He was never offered because he turned down the interview.
    A man got to know his limitations

    Makes total sense. We want the guy who got outcoached by the other three times with everything on the line basically who has never won a big game ever as a coach because he recruits with endless bags and makes corny videos. Alright.

    I wouldn't assume anything in college football. They might have liked him because he recruits well and because he has Kirby bonafides and Saban knows him. Others might think, as have I at times, that KDB is a good coach but also was able to ride Penix and some WRs to a result that might not be his norm in big boy football.

    Of all the places, this is the last one that needs reminding that there are a million narratives out there, just like the one that is being built in this very thread.

    Did he really get outcoached? This whole board supported his 4th down "balls!" decision in game 1. The other narrative is that he had better players, or at least a better QB and WR crew.

    Was Lanning offered? Anyone can turn down a job for clicks for jobs not offered.

    I am staying put and not accepting my the Michigan job. See?

    He's 0-3 with a better team. He got outcoached. Has nothing to do with 4th down quite honestly

    Yeah but he did have his team fake injuries to try and stay in games. That's good coaching. Having you Duck losers here is pointless because it's a bunch of a fans of one team who are self deprecating and pessimistic but the only time you'll even dip your toes in those waters is with Helfrich, who was the last coach to take you to where UW was four days ago.

    Honestly what's the ballot for his biggest win as a head coach:

    -UW in Seattle this year
    -Jerry Falwell in an empty stadium in Phoenix
    -Utah take your pick of year
    -Giving some 17 year old kid's scumbag dad a bag of Nike money (take your pick)
    -Plungering Prime
    -Hail Mary win over North Carolina in a baseball stadium

    I want an actual answer

    Pretty debatable IMO.
