going to? he was already exposed. i knew it was over when they lost to frickin tennessee last year.

If still landing great recruiting classes, winning conferences titles, and contenting for or making the playoff every year is exposed, then I bet a lot of coaches are hoping they get exposed. Including Brian Kelly.

I'm surprised he took the job with UW being in the Big 10 next year. And these laid back PNW coaches have been eaten alive in the SEC.


They are losing an insane number of players from the two deep on both sides of the ball. UWw will be lucky to be .500 next year.

People would have considered Sark a nuclear home run hire and he has exactly 1 great season as a head coach.


Sark has rebuilt Texas into a power.

DeBoer has built exactly zero P4 teams. Washington had 3 NFL receivers already there so all he did was add Penix, who he already knew from his year at Indiana.

Washington made the playoffs once before DeBoer and played Bama


They got manhandled

Michigan also manhandled Washington with DeBoer

It’s just different football then out west. A lot of coaches have had success out west, left elsewhere, and failed. Could DeBoer be great? Sure, but I just don’t trust results from west coast programs/coaches

Damn with a better program, better talent, and better coach, Sark must have really smacked DeBoer huh

It's funny how quickly Alabama acts...this is their life 24/7.

The "University" was built just so they could play foosball.

So does this mean he was born on home plate rather than third base?

Mate you should head to Jackie's or Spirit of 77. Not a great NFL city sadly.

Other than Kiffin, DeBoer was the best realistic candidate.


I don't get the Kiffin love for a second. The guy was sent home before the NC game and the same people who watched that in Boosterville were in on this hire. This job would eat him alive in the long run. At Ole Miss he has none of the daily pressure, he can just worry about the magic portal and his Twitter/X account.

You don’t get the love for a coach at ole miss that is consistently having then ranked in the top 10?

He has proven he can be a top 10 team in the SEC west while at Ole Miss.

What will that buy you at ALABAMA? A ticket to the unemployment line. Kiffin hasn't bested the best in that time. Losing big to Georgia and BAMA again this season isn't the answer to one single problem BAMA has.

It's not win number 10 that gets you anywhere over here. It's only what comes after the regular schedule.

Are you slow?

If you are top 10 consistently at ole miss, you don’t think you would improve at bama?

He has proven he can win in the sec west at ole miss. It’s safe as shite to assume he can handle winning big at bama

Bro your whole fricking life is observing Alabama doing things and reacting to it.

You’re unreal. I’ve never come across someone as eaten up with something as you are with Alabama. And that’s with half the board being LSU fans who have the same energy as people who cut themselves.
