The reality

Was Lanning offered? Anyone can turn down a job for clicks for jobs not offered.

I am staying put and not accepting my the Michigan job. See?

We’re not a serious program if DeWhore (sorry, I’m upset) leaves.

You'd be mad at DeBoer and not the UW administration that couldn't close the deal?

Babs and Tawd would be so proud

I don’t believe Lanning was offered.

What program in their right mind would go after Lanning before DeBoer? There's not contest here.

I'd bet my life savings he was never offered or seriously considered.

Cope harder. He was never offered because he turned down the interview.

A man got to know his limitations

Makes total sense. We want the guy who got outcoached by the other three times with everything on the line basically who has never won a big game ever as a coach because he recruits with endless bags and makes corny videos. Alright.

Did he really get outcoached? This whole board supported his 4th down "balls!" decision in game 1. The other narrative is that he had better players, or at least a better QB and WR crew.

Yeah but he did have his team fake injuries to try and stay in games. That's good coaching. Having you Duck losers here is pointless because it's a bunch of a fans of one team who are self deprecating and pessimistic but the only time you'll even dip your toes in those waters is with Helfrich, who was the last coach to take you to where UW was four days ago.

Honestly what's the ballot for his biggest win as a head coach:

-UW in Seattle this year
-Jerry Falwell in an empty stadium in Phoenix
-Utah take your pick of year
-Giving some 17 year old kid's scumbag dad a bag of Nike money (take your pick)
-Plungering Prime
-Hail Mary win over North Carolina in a baseball stadium

I want an actual answer

What was the Hail Mary from the unc game?

The reality is that this is a fat lesbian school. Always has been always will be.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say in English in the first paragraph, or what Helfrich has to do with this. Helfrich is Larry Coker, for whatever relevant purposes that might serve.

As to the question, I don't have an actual answer because IDK and IDC. Maybe/arguably he doesn't have a big win. I just offered a reason why DL might have been pursued by Alabama even in a universe with KD, and I don't think those explanations are that outlandish. I totally understand the offense to the sensibilities over the assertion by someone - which to be clear wasn't me - that the Holy Grail of football schools would pursue a Duck coach over a Husky coach. But being put off by the offering of a hypothetical take just to shoot the shit, and the 'everyone who doesn't fall in line with me is a Duck' routine, seems a little jumpy IMO.

He's 0-3 with a better team. He got outcoached. Has nothing to do with 4th down quite honestly

Pretty debatable IMO.

Check Fan Duel bro

I don't check Fan Duel. And I'm not your bro, guy.
