DeBoer on KJR basically says UW low-balled him

I tend to believe this but I don't think he's completely lying either.
My issue, as the jilted ex-boyfriend, is that he negotiated with Bama before UW's season was over

We? offered like 7 mil after he beat Oregon. We did look like shit, and he struggled the rest of the season.
Big boy contract came after he beat Oregon again. But driven people don't forget the first time, and he started smoking weed and talking shit after Texas.
UW should have shown him mock ups of his statue and a 12 mil/year salary and they didn't, because he didn't recruit most of his team.

If this was proven factual, and DeBoer/Bama gave each other hj’s prior to the NC game, his street cred would plummet. Regardless of the filth that college football has turned into, this would top all evil. Wonder if his inner circle of asst coaches kinda knew what he’d done and told him to kick rocks. Did Dannen know and played ball for the chance to jump to CornClassy? The conspiracy theories abound.. Michigan was a damn good football team and credit is given, but that wasn’t the same UW team I saw all year.

Honestly the team that showed up for Michigan was the same one that showed up for ASU, Stanford and WSU. DeBoer has had a tendency to lay an egg at times as a D1 head coach. In 2021 he was ass blasted by an average Boise team when his Fresno team was on the verge of a MW title and lost to a bad Hawaii team earlier in the year when they were ranked 18th. In 2023 UW lost to a bad ASU team starting their third string QB. All that said, DeBoer is a great coach, don’t twist, but the Michigan game wasn’t an outlier. An inexplicable loss to Mississippi State in the middle of the year won’t fly with Bama fans. Good luck fats.

this has always been my biggest issue with the DB.
flat as can be as an entire team in the biggest game since the early 1990's.

There's a ton of reasons to leave UW for Alabama, including the fact that DeBoer struggled to put together fucking Top 30-40 recruiting classes, which is historically terrible at UW and now he has a Top 5, maybe number one overall class at Alabama. He was also easily able to get the top returning players for UW (Brailsford/Bernard) and the TE to follow him and could have probably got most of the other returning starters, if he wanted them.
Seems like it would have taken an unrealistic amount of more money then Alabama could pay him or him thinking UW set him up better for an NFL job to stay since he had no connection to the region/program and there's smoke he didn't like the region anyway.
The scarcity of decent coaches and the insane pressure to win is really benefiting these coaches in getting extensions and offers and shit way too early.

The dude was checked out for our NC game…. who gives a shit anymore after that.
-
I don't think it's fair to say checked out, but he was certainly heavily distracted

Well now you’ve finally posted something to laugh about
