He would be safely out of Seattle before the B1G West rock fight on Sept. 21.

DeBoer talking with Alabama, reportedly
- Thread starter rmndcat
- Start date
so...not dabo
i'll be interested to see how deboer fares in a place like this, with boosters and everyone under the sun breathing down his neck trying to affirm their scopes of influence. i most certainly could be wrong but i don't imagine he had that at washington or anywhere else where he could basically show on his own that he's the smartest guy in the room.

Also some guys hitting the portal and Penix gone. Maybe it will be closer than expected
Of any major school Alabama might have the fewest challenges on this front because Saban ruled as the unquestioned dictator and squashed booster influence.
i totally agree with you on the latter point, but i also suspect this is where the oppressed see their chance to strike. we'll see.
Absolutely. If DeBoer starts losing games, some will perceive a power void and opportunity to influence—especially with NIL. The other factor with Alabama is that it's not funded by any megadonor or two. It's a rich program but more because of its huge fanbase, not because of a Phil Knight (or even a Pat Ryan).
Big career risk for DeBoer. You want to be the man following the man. Could have lived like a hero in Washington. Alabama faithful will kick him to the curb in his first 3 loss season. Don’t like this move for him, but he is getting the bag to go there.
He’s also, ya know, won literally everywhere he’s been so is probably pretty confident that he can win with all the resources and brand recognition at Bama.
