Listen to the PC again. Listen to certain coaches we’ve had in the past and compare the tone and attitude of the man leading at the time to what you heard then. Hell I listened to the Q & A with the media after and they cut the damn mic of to the man because he said he was on a tight schedule. Can you fricking imagine what Saban would do if they cut his mic mid sentence.

So if we do well in 24 you will come and repent right?

Listen to the PC again


Saban had been a head coach for almost THIRTY YEARS when he came to BAMA. He'd been an NFL head coach.
DeBoer has been a head coach in D1 for 3.

I just find it ironic that so far, the strong opinions you have had about DeBoer are purely…emotional takes on someone else’s inability to be a good coach because he is (in your opinion) too emotional, yet that actually isn’t true because thus far, DeBoer HAS been what anyone would consider a successful football coach, so clearly if he is “too emotional” his players seem to channel that positively. There isn’t any real logic to why this allegedly makes him “in over his head” it’s just… emotional projecting.
Another funny thing is, Saban was always an emotional coach. He showed anger on the sideline, would get short with the media, and he’s also shed tears and been visibly emotional after wins. But because he is the GOAT, his showcasing of emotion is written off in your mind as a positive attribute and the *only* way to showcase emotion.
We don’t know what DeBoer is going to be, but to write him off for showing valid emotions in a moment with a team he was invested in and nearly won a title game with only to have to break the news to that he’s leaving…I would be more concerned if he WASN’T emotional to them. Dude valued and loves those guys, I’m glad he was honest with them.

So, a quality that predetermines on-field success is your opinion on how he does in a press conference?

Seeing anything from his teams in Fresno or Washington to be concerned about? Anything on field that shows he's in over his head? Or is it all just from a 30 minute PC?

You're certainly welcome to you opinion, but that's a strange measure for evaluation.
