    Kalen will absolutely get smoked on the recruiting trail. Washington desperately needs a big name to compete with Mario and Lincoln.

    I don't buy this. He's going to know how important recruiting is. He's a successful, hard working coach who has done what he needed to do to kick ass at every job he has had. It's stupid, in my opinion, to assume he's going to struggle in recruiting. Name means jack shit. It's all about who identifies the right guys, works the hardest, and sells the best.

    DeBoer will recruit fine.
    He has absolutely no idea what it takes to be good at recruiting. Even Pete struggled his first couple of years at recruiting, and he was known nationally. Until you have gone through recruiting against USC, Oregon, Notre Dame, you don't know the challenges it presents and what it takes to win those battles.

    People said Petersen would struggle to recruit.

    Petersen did struggle in recruiting at an elite level.

    Coach Pete was 57-6 at Boise State, won a Fiesta Bowl, won coach of the year, and was known nationally. Kalen went 9-3 one year at Fresno State and hasn't been mentioned in any other coaching positions. Please don't compare the two.
    I'm not comparing. I'm saying people said the same thing about Petersen. After watching the "level up" bs of the last few years go down in flames I'm not going to put sizzle before steak.

    And, no, outside the diehards that breathe football, nobody out here knows who Matt Campbell is. And the Lions did not offer him a job.
    Going to have to agree to disagree.

    Actually, correction. Duck fans know who he is.

    Only because of the OkG bullshit and half his staff thinking they could turn every three star into a first round pick.

    I am team Deboner. Bring in Tedford and score 40 a game next year.

    I've been ride or die with DeBoner since the start. Hell, I was the first douchecanoe here to name him DeBoner.
    I boner for deboner!

    That’s why Husky football is dead — baffles the mind that you need a committee to make this hire. Rest assured, it was an exhaustive process… blah blah blah

    Want to like the guy on name alone but the Dawgs trying to poach the Fresno St. coach narrative is a tad, uff.

    I hope not but seem like DeBoner might be hard pressed to get a solid 8+ WINches a year in this new Pac12 landscape.

    If we had the money to hire Campbell, doesn’t that mean we now have money to hire a kick ass staff? It seems that it would be pretty easy to hire some known recruiters. Personally I think a Deboer is going to win a shit of games. LIPO

    Not sure what you want… you’re shitting on deboner because he’s a bad recruiter and saying we shouldn’t hire him, while also saying we are not appropriately flexing our money to make an impact hire, so who’s left that’s not a limp dick and we are seriously considering that doesn’t require a big pay day? Sounds like you’re disappointed with the hire already, not sure why you’d be in here chastising people for thinking deboner and tedford may be the best we (re: Jen) can do. If it ain’t deboner then share the info.

    The issue is that he doesn't know anyone, and most of the time, Mountain West coaches want to bring in their previous staff. Look at his staff right now; most of those guys have been following him since his NAIA days.

    A lot depends on what staff deboner puts together.
