Why wouldn't these kids want to play for a coach that just took his team to the national championship game?


To be fair, that’s an accomplishment but Sonny Dykes did the same thing. Now I think DeBoer is 100x the coach Dykes is but being in the natty isn’t going to wow a kid on its own.

I was team Kiffin and while I do believe that DeBoer is potentially a better long term coach, I don’t think you see this kind of turnover with a known commodity among the SEC. DeBoer is basically starting from scratch.

Kinda where I was too. Wanted Sark (knew it was a long shot ) or Kiffin but didn’t think DeBoer was a possibility really. But , I am kinda happy with the hire . Once he establishes relationships this spring with high school coaches in the region , I think he will be a good coach who will attract top offensive players for sure .

Exactly. Thank you.

Which is precisely why I said Kiffin was the "safest" hire.

Caleb Downs leaving for UGA is like Ronald Acuna just packing up and going to play for the Dodgers.

This probably could have been prevented.
