UW announces a brand new deal with DeBoer this week, immediately following the Apple Cup at the latest.

If not, no bueno.

No specific intel. Just my gut.

Either way...

    My buddy said the same thing. Said he feels like it should come out pre AC. I’d obviously be all for that. I’m in the camp though that DeBoer has his offer from UW in hand but will Wait to see if a blue blood opens up and if not sign his deal in January. His recruiting class is 40th. I mean Is it really going to “fall apart” if he waits? If he truly wanted to stay for another 5-7 years he’d of signed already. He’s got wandering eyes. What’s Dannen going to do? Put an ultimatum out there? He’s really kinda at DeBoers mercy. Hope I’m wrong.

    I really don't sense that he's got wandering eyes for flashier markets. I think the qualities at UW (the woke stuff not withstanding), that attracted Petersen to UW are the same that attracted DeBoer to UW.

    I guess this is a good problem to have.

    Worry about winning out.

    DeBoer already knows he will get paid regardless of how the season ends.

    The longer he holds out, the greater his payday can become if he wins a Natty or big bowl game.

    If I was in his shoes I wouldn't waste a thought on a contract until the season is over.

    Lol. Outside of maybe Cal, football coaches aren't going to give two shits about the "woke stuff" that's going on on campuses.

    If he doesn't sign that tells me he may be waiting on Michigan. I don't see him jumping for any other potential jobs at the moment. No inside info, just the one blue blood that realistically makes sense at the moment as a fit.

    DeBoer is focusing on winning a natty, pod

    Nothing would be better for recruiting and eliminating distractions than announcing his commitment with a new contract. The longer it goes, the more the questions and rumors swirl.
