DeBoer

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.
-
"Lose to Hawaii"
-
Boer War.
& shit. -

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.

If we get him maybe Heaner will portal back.

I like watching his offense. Outside of his overall record, I've seen guys wide open all the time. Plenty of horizontal and vertical stuff going on.

Will need Jones to portal back tooMontlakeBridgeTroll said:If we get him maybe Heaner will portal back.

I would be happy with De Boer. Agree w/ @Gladstone that its a crapshoot, but I'd like to take a shot with someone who hasn't already proven that they suck.
But hiring just a head coach isn't enough. We need commitment from the AD to push the new coach to hire a serious assistant staff and spend the money to make it happen. No more hiring the coach's friend from Boise State who's a really good guy. I don't want to go through another bullshit cycle where we trust the head coach to hire 'his guys', and then fire them in a couple years when the head coach needs a scapegoat.
Go after the best recruiters and coaches on the west coast and pay them. Spend the money now, because this is still salvageable, in a couple years it may not be. -
Careful guys. Potential future coaches read these boards.bananasnblondes said:

Edit: Although it would be incredible to have a coach say "I was going to coach at Washington but then I found those assholes at Hardcore Husky and decided this wasn't the place for me. " -
His staff is good. His OC is well thought of (I think Tedford originally hired him as his WR coach) and Kirby Moore and JD Williams have Chinteresting ties to UW.

The helpful thing is that I bet Tedford knows DeBoer due to their Fresno State ties and is probably talking him up to Cohen.
DeBoer as HC and Wilcox as his DC would be pretty NEAT.
Woof, snarl, bark. -

I like Da Boner

If we don't hire him he'll probably end up in Pullman

Going to the cuog would be a massive downgrade for him. He'd be better off staying in Fresno.insinceredawg said:If we don't hire him he'll probably end up in Pullman

It’s fun to see that despite one of the worst seasons in recent memory, lil Jimmie is still employeed, and the majority of the AD staff graduated from whoregon and auburn; you guys are still doogin and optimistic about new coaches.
Haven’t we? learned that if there’s a way to fuck it up then this university will…
I’m cautiously optimistic, I just don’t want you homos getting excited only to be left with your dick in your hands. -
