Is he currently the best coach in CFB? He's only 49 years old. Not old men.

After inheriting a team that went 4-8 in 2021, DeBoer has gone 25-2 in his two seasons with the Huskies.

The Athletic had an article on him today that made me think he is super legit. My type of HC. Calm, analytical, organized, detail-oriented, and an elite schemer/thinker.

Basically he's a better and less douchey version of Lincoln Riley. He needs to develop the Riley mega-QB transfer policy to keep it rolling I imagine.

He's also 10-0 against ranked teams at Washington.
I don't know if he'd be a good fit in the SEC though especially after how other PNW coaches like McElwain and Harsin flamed out.

Good coach. He’s benefiting from having a roster with a lot of 5th & 6th year players.

chargers should offer him the job if they can't get Harbaw for any reason.

Isn’t the ability to retain your players in the transfer portal and NIL era a big positive for him in this case?

He has dominated his peers at every level of football. He has only been a P5 head coach for 2 years and has continued to dominate his peers. I don’t know about right now but the potential is certainly there.

What?


Did you even watch that game?


Because you are 100% wrong about a critical play for that game but also played into the NC

No. Kirby Smart is the best coach in cfb now that Saban is gone.

DaBoer has been impressive and a is a very good coach, but Kirby is 42-2 in the past three years playing in the SEC and won two titles. Nobody is better than that right now.

Saban didn't begin his coaching career in P5. Gotta start somewhere.

Yeah, but he hit big on a vet transfer QB because he knew him and was a guy that people were basically calling Burrow, Jr. at the end of the season. A pro receiving corps helped, too. That combo got Ed Orgeron a title. Let's see how he does in the B1G long term.
