I agree. His overall record shows he's a good coach. No doubt about it.
And it's almost an Iron Law @Auburndawg that it's rare for a P5 coach to do it at an elite level at more than one P5 stop. Most fall on their faces when they move on. It's what makes Urbs legendary.
So him failing at Alabama doesn't mean he wasn't good at Washington. But still … he had that QB.

He excels at lower levels. Clearly in over his head at Bama.
I'm hearing some on this board would take him back, though.
-
I haven't heard that. I think he's dead to everyone around here now.
Still, can't blame anyone for being disappointed in losing him and replacing him with Fischsticks.

You post a lot, Woolley. I can't keep track of them all.
I definitely remember @RaceBannon losing his shit over recruiting during his first season. That all went away once he beat Oregon.
I guess I'm wondering why Rogers isn't more regularly called out as a huge red flag now that we all can see that Penix et al were DeBoer.
As you said, 2023 was a shitshow of improbable close calls. It was a great team, but it was because of the coaches on the field.

25-3
UW fucked up. These rationalizations are amusing though
Until Judd goes 5-7

Overall, I think Deboer is a good coach and I'm surprised he's struggling so much at Alabama. I thought quick success at Bama was a harder task than it might have seemed though. It didn't look like to the level of proven NFL talent and depth they had during Saban's years and he didn't have a QB for his system.
Deboer's Fresno success wasn't overly remarkable. Tedford was better before and after he was there. I was mostly excited about Deboer when he came because of his offense after nearly a decade of Pete and Jimmy's drek and bringing Haener with him.
Would consider Deboer back depending on what the options are but wasn't optimistic about the way he was doing things for success in college football in this wonderful day and age at the time he left.

Bellotti was 23-3 with Joey Harrington starting his last 2 seasons.
And, no, Harrington was no Penix. Bellotti was no Chip, either.
I see 2023 UW as a mini-me version of 2019 LSU. Burrow, Jefferson et al. DeBoer = Orgeron.

You memory of me is as bad as your takes on Husky Football
0-3 against DeBoer. You'd think that a great coach could figure it out. ASU did. Hell even WSU shut down the Husky O in 2023 as did Harbaugh
All we heard from duck fans was fan duel has us as favorites and we out recruit you and have more talent
How did that work out for you? No doubt you love our latest patsy and 49-21. Everyone does. He's a great recruiter!!!!!!
I've seen a slew of NFL quarterbacks at UW that didn't win shit. I've seen a slew of coaches that sucked.
I hadn't seen 4-8 to 25-3.
I don't give a shit about recruiting. There is a whole thread where I said I don't care how players got here jut how they performed when they did
Losers talk about recruiting. A fucking Iron Law as old as the site
-
That's a lot of text about my singular word of the word recruiting. You're correct, my memory isn't great these days but the site keeps receipts so I don't have to.
Regardless, DeBoer did great things with a special group of players that were already here outside of Penix.
What are thoughts on Mike Norvell? He was 2-10 last year and clown-stomped your living hero (RIP Don James) on Saturday. You mentioned 4-8 to 25-3 so it's relevant.

Dead Internet University needs everybody to stop and think that Montana State was good last year at the FCS level and this year is on par with a Mountain West school that spends more than WSU and OSU on football, up until 2 seasons ago had a better stadium, etc.
