Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Looks like DeBoer is gonna poach our best. So you say fuck it, fine, that's how this game is played.
But what to make of it if Fisch is unable to poach UA's best? If they all swore some loyalty-suicide pact to 2ndary coaches?

But UW was already fucked thanks to DeBoer and his shitty recruiting. And while UA's best is better than what UW currently has, it's still not top-end B1G-contending talent. 2024 is gonna be a sad year, but I suspect Fisch will recruit/portalize like his future depends on it, and UW will be a B1G contender in 2025.
To me, that's the most realistic outlook with an admittedly UW-centric positive spin.
Still, I'm noticing that UW players seem to have no qualms about following DeBoer to Tuscaloosa. But in the AZ narrative (which admittedly is being spun by AZ honks), there's all this player resentment of Fisch.
Just noting that these situations aren't parallel and I'm trying to figure out why. Seems to me DeBoer underhandedly fucked UW's players and program way harder than Fisch ever did to AZ.
The equivalent would be Deboer leaving after the Alamo bowl win and all the studs deciding to stay and finish what they set out to do, coach be damned.
UW was all-in this year and nearly got home, but 2024 was always going to be shaky regardless of staff.
I'll stand by DeBoer being great with the guys and on gameday but he sucked at building
And now he's lost a lot of cred on the we are family stuff
I would bet a lot of money that more Arizona players portal to Washington than Washington to Alabama.
