    KDB has $15M+ reasons to have taken this job

    What guarantees exist that he’d have ever be offered that kind of money again?

    I would say winning another 9+ games in a conference that was won by Utah fucking State would do it.

    You don't understand the context. As we said in the pod, we speculated that DeBoer was happy to get here but then realized how fucked up UW is. I was saying that he might be talking with Grubb and saying "let's get to ten wins this year and then parlay this into a job in the Big 10 or whatever." Joey was saying how DeBoer's comments always seem measured against pissing off Jen.

    You’re right … I didn’t listen so the additional context is helpful

    My point was that even if DeBoer realized that Jen was a walking disaster he was looking at a $15M payday for himself as well as big raises for the rest of his staff … in many respects he’d have been foolish not to take the job.

    To your point, there’s potential that he could parlay to a better situation … definitely a non zero chance there. Moreover, I think also fair to question if he’d have found a higher ceiling job than UW had he passed on it.

    In comparison, if you think of Campbell’s situation, it’s pretty clear that for him to leave Iowa St it’s going to take a situation where he feels he can win big. I think we all can agree that it’s likely that he didn’t walk away from his dealings with Jen confident that UW was prepared to do what it takes

    Campbell hasn't shown any signs of wanting to win big.

    Request to make a Montlake Futures hat the picture for the Recruiting board instead of pedo Grubb.

    That would be “… instead of family-vacationing murderer Grubb.” This script allows no notes.
