Now the offer was in excess of 10 lol
Rattled. Big time
Tell your bosses to send someone else.

Holy freak-out batman.
Don't take this shit so literally personally. It's going to age you. Play the game and keep your heart rate down. People on this board call each other "dumb fuck" and tell each other to kill themselves regularly. It's not really serious. If it were I'd be concerned but it's not.
I can give you the name of my therapist. She worked wonders for me.
-
Fuck you, creepy.
-
-
Who the hell do you think you are?
-
You telling me no such place like this exists in Eugene's hive of scum and villainy?
-
Thanks for your concern but my heart rate doesn't get up with this stuff …
-
I hate to say it but Tequila is correct, it’s still unnerving when your two dads are fighting out in the open. Just beat Maryland
-
Tequila is the doogiest of all doogs.
Race still can't come to terms with the fact that DeBoer views this job as a stepping stone.
Beat Maryland. Nothing else matters.

Quick search on contracts offered to DeBoer by UW …
During the 2023 regular season … the initial contract was upwards of $7M with the contract at the end of November at just under $9M
The "reported" number that UW offered in counter of going to Alabama was around $9.4M+ … I have heard off the record the number was $10M+ that they were prepared to offer when it was pretty clear that DeBoer wasn't interested regardless of the number
In all of the above contract offers there were commitments made both in terms of DeBoer and staff allowances as well as program upgrades, etc.
I can always dive deeper into UW AD financials but it's probably interesting to at most 19% of people …
The long/short of it is that the AD has not been swimming in cash since COVID and in fact has been operating thin … Jen basically exhausted any surpluses that we had historically and there isn't a giant slush fund laying around for an AD to do anything with. Anything big requires securing commitments from donors to dramatically increase budgets.
Then when you add in that we have a fanbase that by and large doesn't trust the AD to manage large surpluses wisely (don't blame them on it either) and you've got a very interesting operating dynamic that isn't in play for most programs that are our peers or above us in the pecking order.

Excuses are for losers
Coffee is for closers
UW failed. Again
I don't think they hit any number close because it's always about the money
If he left for less or equal then that proves my point that something at UW doesn't inspire coaches that they have support there
Fisch's biggest backers here say he's gone at the first hint of success
Feel the excitement

And yet Lanning doesn't view Oregon that way
You guys keep making my point
-
Lanning was never actually offered the Bama job. He was 0-3 against DeBoer. DeBoer was offered the Bama job after beating Lanning in October. It correlates to him getting Sexton as an agent. Saban wanted out and it was a done deal.
DeBoer left for the #1 program in college football. It sucks but there was nothing that could've been done. Nothing.
-
IF DeBoer left for a lateral job then that's one thing … leaving for arguably the bluest of blue bloods in Alabama is what it is
I wouldn't want to be on the side arguing that the Washington job was a better or equal job to Alabama
-
It should be
That's the point
-
Did Bill Fleenor tell you that?
Occam told me they lowballed him
-
So I'll humor you a bit here Race …
Why do you think DeBoer viewed UW as a stepping stone job?
What is different at Oregon for Lanning than how DeBoer (or Fisch) view UW?
If you want to talk about money, resources, and support … why is that the case? What is needed or required to address those issues? It's one thing to say that UW needs to spend more (probably accurate) … but if they need to spend more that means that they need to drive additional revenues right? And if that's the case how are they going to do that?
I have no illusions that Fisch will not be a long-term coach at UW as I do think that he has NFL aspirations as a HC … if he gets success here and that happens then good for us. In today's world of CFB a coach leaving becomes a big issue if he leaves for another college job because then you're roster gets destroyed.
If you want to have a coach that could be a combination of successful and likely hear for the long haul, that coach was Matt Campbell. Jen screwed that one up.
-
No, Occam is in agreement he wanted to go to Bama.
-
Matt Campbell?
Ok
Your posts are all the humor i need
You're making my case for me. UW not only wasn't enough for DeBoer you've already accepted losing Fisch if he doesn't suck
What exactly is the point here?
You either build a killer program or you get a cuck chair
Here's my advice. Stop enabling and defending incompetence and failure
It's a start
-
So he's good but not great.
Reminds me of being in Seahawks 9-7 perpetual first round playoff death.
Exciting to contemplate the four year plan to lose a first round playoff game.
The trajectory is undeniable.

Sometimes it's serious. I'd actually enjoy meeting a fair few at the Aurora 711.
Vanilla is great btw.

I think Fisch has NFL aspirations … so it wouldn't shock me if he heads there at some point. Even the great Saban did that so it's a thing.
The fact that you think a coach that is undefeated, in the Top 15, and played in the Big12 title game last year at a school that has literally never been at the heights that he has them at during his tenure is a laughable coach is really telling.
You may not believe that I have high standards for the program but I do … I also set my expectations each year based on the realities of the program and not some level of irrationalism that comes at your latest acid hit.
I'm all for UW having top end resources in college football … there is a sizable gap between where we are and what the top end is. Again, how do you propose that UW obtains the resources to get to that level? If it was just that easy don't you think we, and others, would have done so?
-
Here's your teq TLDR courtesy of chat gpt
The author defends Coach Fisch, suggesting he may eventually move to the NFL (like Saban did), and criticizes someone for dismissing Fisch despite his major accomplishments at a historically underperforming program. They argue their expectations for UW football are based on realistic assessments of the program’s current state and resource limitations, not unrealistic ideals. They support UW improving but question how people expect it to easily bridge the gap to elite programs.
-
Jedd Fisch, who coached in the NFL for 12 years, has NFL aspirations. KYS.
-
Are you intentionally misreading the context of what I wrote?
Canadawg said Fisch took them to the top. I argued that an Alamo Bowl win and 3-loss season is not "the top". I never said Arizona should have been playing for a natty under Fisch.
-
Arizona football has a 59% winning percentage all time. Fisch won 43%. He underperformed compared to recent coaches there
-
Although better than John Macovic so he has that going for him which is nice
Worse than Wrong Stoops
-
There was a time we were deeply concerned UW would hire Mackovic
-
Yes a great podcast as I recall
