This was in another thread on here:

From BOL

Feel confident saying that Julian
and the family intended/wanted
to stay and this is driven much
more by DeBoer and staff than
by Julian. Unfortunate situation
because l'm a huge believer in
Julian's talents and think he's
going to be a star.

This,
He wanted to stick it out initially and then
well, things went south.
Shocked to be honest. Sayin is the real
deal. I think the new staff will regret this

One thing we can say for sure about BOL during this process, is that they don't know shite or have any grand insight or connections beyond the general public.

There's just no way to know this. Nobody would've thought that Penix would throw for 9200 yards in two seasons after his first 3. Except DeBoer. Nobody wanted Penix. Indiana is NOT where 5* go to play. DeBoer took Michael Penix and a bunch of 3 and 4 stars to the last game of the season.
Saban didn't try to recruit Penix, but with Penix last year Saban probably retires with another ring.

Also what is getting lost in all of this is a HC's ability to do cost-based analysis. If Mack costs $300k, and Sayin costs $1m, both throw for 3500 yards, who's the better choice? A sad reality, but a reality nonetheless. DeBoer is playing moneyball.
