DeBoer on KJR basically says UW low-balled him
Comments
-
Have we ever considered DeBoer left because he's scared of Lanning and that he's bring the SEC to the west coast?
-
I've come to accept that if Bammer wants UW's corch, there's nothing you can do to stop it, unless that corch has some quirk wanting them to stay in Seattle (e.g., the Chris Petersen type). It's not about the money.
-
Generally agree, but if they offered him, say, $11 million in October of last year he's signing that contract. Then they at least have a massive buyout in there because he didn't have Sexton as his agent at that time and Saban had given no indications that he was going to retire.
It was also obvious, from the interview, that DeBoer and short-timer Dannen did not get along and that Dannen didn't do much of anything to build bridges with DeBoer.

This is a way it could have worked I mean maybe then Alabama goes harder after Norvell or someone who is easier to get out of their contract, but the earliest you could legit extend DeBoer with something anywhere close to that big is after beating Oregon, and then after closing out the regular season and that's a massive massive risk. Rewarding guys like that you're going to get a lot more Mel Tuckers (not even considering the stroking thing) who have a hot start or catch heat but then are nothing special in the long run.
Again, if it's even possible, you can put a massive game changing extension on the table after the first Oregon win, but keep in mind they barely won that game at home and they almost assuredly were gonna have to beat Oregon again at that point on a neutral field and then how good would that extension look if they lost the rematch?
-
Sure, but that's now w/o a goodly amount of risk. Clearly, DeBoer was on the rise after knocking off Oregon in Seattle, but that was a tight game which very easily could have gone the other way. I don't think DeBoer is an $11,000,000 man after Oregon (and UW doesn't have the same margin for error like the rich kids). He was after the CCG or Sugar Bowl - albeit one who still wasn't a proven recruiter.

I agree with this. After Oregon 1, you’ve got a coach that almost blew an 11 point second half lead at home and hasn’t yet finished two full recruiting classes. The first offer would have put him in the upper third of the B1G. Then Dannen sees the uninspired efforts against ASU, Stanford and WSU, sees the fringe recruiting class and probably thinks his offer is still about right. They’re undefeated so he might sweeten it a bit but they’re close. After the P12CG and the Sugar Bowl Dannen knew he was fucked. Probably thought it was all in hand until it wasn’t. If they’d gone with 10 million in October and UW kicks a couple of the many regular season squeakers he looks silly at that price tag. The Mel Tucker and Jimbo Fisher contracts were out in the ether giving pause, I’m sure.

@theknowledge our very own errand boy sent by grocery story clerks to collect a bill gets it.
-
Great leaders know without risk there is no reward
Dannen is the errand boy. Kurtz makes DeBoer sign
-
Great leaders also know when the risk is too high. FDR and Churchill weren't gonna sign off on 1943 Normandy landings no matter how much @DerekJohnson pressured them.
-
UW was gutless as usual
And lost again
-
Seems like every time a Blue Blood steals our girlfriend, it's worked out OK- i.e., multiple conference championships in both examples.
-
Wait, Race AND Derek were there?
-
fucking fat lying piece of shit Dutchman.
-
Jimmy Sexton fucks…
-
You're madson because he's a great coach. Oregon fans were fucking rejoicing when we? got $10,000,000 from Miami for Meat. Nobody is upset when their ugly unemployed girlfriend wants to fuck someone else. I mean, I never have been anyway.
-
Fucking fat lying piece of shit Dutchman.

Speaking of cringe. Get ready for Dan Lanning to already get crowned as a national championship head coach with a giant fucking floating Duck in the background for the last day of B1G media days. Yogi already has his kneepads out.
-
Literally first thing out of his mouth is about winning the Natty with Georgia 😆
-
Predictably, they're trying to press this really hard that a giant blowup Duck is some marketing genius thing.
Already Oregon fans want to fuck this thing more than their own truck stop blowup dolls at home.

BONEM

To be fair I hate PJ Fleck too.
Fisch is a CEO. Other two guys were just complete dipshits.
-
I want my college football coaches to be grumpy old alcoholics not these row the boat bullshit fucks. Looks like Deshaun Foster saw how awkward Jonathan Smith was and said hey hold my beer. I'll take Fisch, who is that guy you've partied or golfed with or whatever who you don't realize is Jewish for a very long time and who doesn't appear to be trying to dress up what he is.
-
Fleck was absolutely trying to dance around the fact that going into his 8th year there, he hasn't done much and his row the boat shit 1) has nothing to do with the University of Minnesota and 2) doesn't translate into more wins at the power 2 level.
-
Smith was hilarious in that here's Jack Velling going on and on about how he grew up idolizing all the UW tight ends under Petersen. It's like, did we really need to take this transfer TE from Nevada? Seems like we could've easily snagged the 2nd team all P12 tight end that is still probably needed after losing Cuevas.
And then nobody even wanted to talk about Michigan State, just beavlet stuff.
-
I assumed there was a decent chance they would bring in Velling in the portal but I assume he's either loyal to Smith because he offered him when UW didn't or UW for whatever reason wasn't that interested.
I thought someone on here had speculated they had a good shot at getting Ioane and Nabou to come home but then nothing. Deboer and Huff should have been able to get Ioane to recommit and not move across the whole country to play for James Franklin. Sucks to see he's already getting projected as an All-Big 10 guy.

Losers lose
-
Yes, but we only have one grocery clerk among us with.
-
cheaper cost of living, center of the nations hottest recruiting bed, admin that cares, and more money. Am I missing something?
-
It's the dirty souf.
You don't want to see a dirty, rainy night in bumfuck Alabama. You just don't.
Note...I have not. It's just what I'm hearing.

when you’re working 80-90 hour weeks, I don’t think you notice the weather.
