Interview with DeBoer upon his arrival at Fresno St.
Describe your strengths as a coach. What differentiates you from other coaches out there?
“I just keep working. I keep plugging away. I believe in my abilities, but in not being cocky with it. I feel who I should have around me, and be surrounded by great people, and let them work. Help enable them to be able to get what they need to do their jobs really well. Keep the attitude, keep the atmosphere positive, but also have great expectations. I think those are a lot of the strengths that I have. There’s nothing better than bringing a group of people together and have them all going in the same direction.”
DeBoer is no Jimmy.

Also, poaching Haener’s coach would tickle my bits.

Would love this guy as our next coach if we can’t get stoops.

De Boer is a Dutch occupational surname meaning "the farmer". Variant spellings include den Boer and DeBoer.

Those quotes don't mean anything to me. Coachspeak is coachspeak. I do like that his career record as a HC is 77-9, and that he won 3 national titles at the lower level. They were a very good program before him but they never broke through once they were upgraded to the Great Plains Athletic Conference, the previous HC only made a 'ship game once and lost. DeBoer took over and won three national championships in four years, with the off fourth year a loss in the national championship game. If we're talking potential Husky HCs, that's a fucking start. As an OC he improved every D1 offense he worked with, oftentimes dramatically improved them. Indiana in 2019 was destroying people on O, and they sucked before DeBoer arrived and sucked after, so yeah.
He would be near the top of my list, yes. Getting assblasted by Boise last week and losing at worthless Hawaii (as PGOS noted) takes some of the shine off it though. This shit is almost always a crapshoot unless you're hiring someone like Urban fucking Meyer.
67-3 at the NAIA level is still 67-3 though, good lord. That level of dominance down there is very Brian Kelly or Jim Tressel-esque. -
And most importantly, we can refer to him as De BonerBalls_Deep said:De Boer is a Dutch occupational surname meaning "the farmer". Variant spellings include den Boer and DeBoer.

I’m all for a coach that can be called da-boner.
