Breakfast at the new DeBoer household…: the girls are sitting across from each other, heads down but look up occasionally as they pick at their grits with a fork…uncertain of what they are or are composed of, mom is staring ( glaring) at the coach with her arms crossed as he tries in vain to convince her that they made the right decision. Then with an air of indifference she picks up her plate of untouched country ham and over easy eggs and scrapes them off into the trash can before slamming it into the sink making the girls jump. The uncomfortable scene ends with a slamming door and a clock ticking relentlessly in a silent room….

I needed a good laugh and the doofus never disappoints. Trying to convince everybody he LOVES this hire and DeBoer is the new gold standard of college football is hilarious. I know Bandwagon Nation will step in and swear there isn't a single bammer anywhere that's not ecstatic about DeBoer, but the interwebs prove that to be a lie.

Interests also say you can pick your gender. I'm assuming not everyone was happy with the saban hire. Just my personal opinion of "available" coaches, he's worth a shot. I think lanning would have been approved as well. But there's not another coach out there, on the market, I'd rather see.

"He's worth a shot" is probably a truthful, sensible opinion. Especially considering who was available. Pretending to be ecstatic and saying he was bama's first choice like the doofus said is dishonest, disingenuous, and idiotic. Especially after he said this was everyone's dream job and alabama could get anyone they wanted. Dan Lanning proved that to be false right off the bat.

Honestly I never heard of the guy until about a month ago, tell me coach who has suceeded after a great coach?? Fulmers replacements? Spurrier? Stoops replacement?? Guy at USC?? Osborne?? Switzer? Jimmy Johnson?? Bear bryant ?? I could go on and on cannot think of a single coach who did even average taking over for a "great coach" can anyone else

I think he was the first choice of available. Dan lanning was never offered. He is getting publicity off of the speculation that he was a candidate. I'd rather have Deboer over any other coaches that stark or Kirby. They ain't moving though

Lanning was their first choice. He wasn't offered because he told them he wasn't interested.

Thanks! I'll continue the story.

After supper the girls are in their room having gotten ready for bed early. Down the hall in their parents room a muffled argument is plainly heard, they know full well what the subject is.
They are talking, quietly discussing how it seems everyone In Tuscaloosa have only 2 or 3 last names and how they all resemble each other in an eerie way and how no one they meet seems very bright.
The older one remarks that she hasn't seen a single dentist office since they got here, the younger one looks up and begins to tear up then gently cry. The older sister puts her arm around her distraught siblings shoulder and tells her it will be ok, that they won't be there long, 2 years at the most….

I did not realize they opened up mic night on the Sports Forum on TN Deer.

Slept right through it but pretty sure you got heckled off the stage in the first 30 seconds and escorted out by security for your safety and security;)
