I agree - though I’ve been wondering what the next “Washington-level school” might be for him - it won’t be another (current) blue blood, and he won’t consider too low in the P5 hierarchy, nor anywhere in the Western US, as he continues to plot a way to the pros and the associated riches
Nebraska? Maybe a really beaten-down Michigan is the ceiling?
It feels like the rapid jumping and the lack of a coaching tree is going to catch up to him (or maybe already has?)
Edit: I take it back - no way Michigan takes him directly after a big flameout at Alabama - their fan base/alums are insane. I say Nebraska, or maybe like an Utah if Whitt leaves, or Oklahoma when fans get tired of Venables.
Minnesota. Fleck is a perpetual 7-8 game winner that runs an archaic offense. That won’t fly forever. They’ve updated all their facilities with that fat Big 10 money and their stadium is relatively new. He’d kill it there.
You’re right he would kill it there - but I think that’s an example of a program he would think is too far of a step back career wise. Same with say the Iowa schools, or even like Wisconsin. Don’t think another SEC school (except terrible ones) would touch him right away and ACC probably doesn’t interest him enough (and I don’t think he’d make a short list at say Clemson or fsu)
I really don’t think there is much middle ground between his (and Sextons) expectations and who would hire him if he flames out in two years at Alabama (and now having a clear, well-established reputation of being a climber/leaver)
Will DeBoer be Kirby’s OC as a way to rehab his failures? That’s what both Kiffin and Sark did at Alabama. Is Georgia’s OC a better move than Minnesota’s HC?

I was happy to see DeBoer implode at 9-4. But ATBS, I'd trade him for Fisch in a heartbeat
Absolutely. My guess is that DeBoer fails at Bama but then gets hired at a different Washington-level school and absolutely kills it.
Wiki is the new For Sale signs in the coaches yard
One of my all time favorites on Friday Night Lights
For all the heat UK fans gave Calipari, they were too Nebraska classy to put a for sale sign in his yard.

South Dakota State just filled their opening

Just a reminder of two guys named Lane Kiffin and Steve Sarkisian
DeBoer could get another job rather easily

DeBoer is both the head coach at Bama and a student of Saban
Multi tasking
DeBoer is 46-12 in FBS play
His failures are better than most coaches success
cough Fisch
Silly thread. Husky legend Kalen DeBoer isn’t going anywhere and would have won the natty this year if not for a biased hatin ass selection committee.
DeBoer is 6-0 against Kirby Sark and Lanning
This. Wishing he was still here and rooting for him to implode at Bama are not mutually exclusive.
