Recruiting Football Talk VII

[berryvol]

 

[berryvol]

Multiple talking heads now saying DeBoer is a done deal

 

[DD4ME]

Espn now announcing they are negotiating

 

[Vols410]

Does sound more and more like DeBoer. Obviously he’s been successful everywhere so far, but still a lot of unknown about building a lasting program in the south.

Reminds me a lot of the Heupel hire. Offensive mind, successful coach at a lesser program, but can he recruit the south. I think they’re both from SD too.

Kirby once gave up a garbage Hail Mary. Didn’t seem to hurt his future.

Proof that Kirby sucked!

 

[DD4ME]

 

[GoodTimeVol]

Oh no guys that’s bad news Kelen Deboer is like Nick Saban and Urban Meyer reincarnated according to some posters on here

 

[MoCo_Vol]

No clue if DeBoer will be a bust or not, but he will be less than Saban either way and that could be enough to get him fired in 3 years regardless.

that 12 wins a year average Saban had won't be met by DeBoer or likely any of his replacements, not with us on the rise Kirby at Georgia and Texas/OU in the conference now.

 

[Orangeburst]

He has no idea of the expectations and scrutiny.

 

[delfonic]

Best get used to it. Free OTA games will disappear. Will start with a subscription service and morph into PPV at some point.

PPV and the idea of maximizing revenue now has killed other sports that were considered too big to fail. I would hate for it to happen to football.

Didn’t you know he is a Nick Saban reincarnated?

 

[Vol423]

He'd be better off accepting the $8.4+ per year to stay at Washington. He'll be fired within 4 years at Alabama.

 

[Volnut]

ESPN reporting they are working on a contract for DeBoer to become Alabama’s new coach per Schlabach

Just saw that. I still want to see it signed first. The Seattle Silicon Richys will have a counter.

 

[SpringBokVol]

I hope he signs a ridiculous contract

 

[Enki_Amenra]

would love for Bama to struggle getting bowl eligible next year. He probably wins 10+, just off the current roster and culture. I don't think he can sustain it at Saban's level very long and I'd bet he is gone in 5yrs.

 

[DD4ME]

Bama is going to over pay for DeBoer and in 3 years when it isn’t working they will find out just how far they have fallen.

This is it. They have enough talent on the team to do well with any half decent coach. This is about decay, meddling, and change that will tear them down long term. This is a monster change for both Deboer and Bama. I hope he fails, but it will not likely be immediate.

 

[SoilVol]

I heard the rumor and saw some people that said it’s not true…. I don’t really know how i feel about Tomlin as Head Coach.

I'm a Titans fan. I hate the Steelers.

But how do you not like a .633 winning percentage, 3rd longest streak of non-losing seasons in NFL history, 7 division titles, 11 playoff appearances, 3 AFC Championship appearances, 2 Super Bowl appearances, and a Super Bowl. In 17 seasons?

Why is Tomlin still having to prove himself lol?

 

[engineerVOL]

I mean, good coach. No way can you recreate the last 17 years.

 

[Adam Sandler]

I will just leave this here.

Attractive girl, but clearly not too bright and horribly mislead. Poor thing.

I think he does the opposite of Saban's first 3-4 years.

Bet he has a huge term....

Will be interesting to see how many players jump ship.

 

[Adam Sandler]

I could be wrong, but I believe DeBoer will leverage a raise out of Washington. I see Alabama settling for someone along the lines of Lance Leipold.

Either coach would do well there. I’m hoping for Rees, locksley, etc

 

[peaygolf]

I know. I know.
Just had to post it

 

[screenthis]

If Alabama were able to get him, who would be the closest coach to the talents of Saban? Urban Mayer? Jim Harbaugh?
