(Photo : Stacy Revere/Getty Images) HOUSTON, TEXAS – JANUARY 08: Head coach Kalen DeBoer of the Washington Huskies seems to be on previous to the 2024 CFP National Championship recreation in opposition to the Michigan Wolverines at NRG Stadium on January 08, 2024 in Houston, Texas.

The standard knowledge in searching for a alternative for Nick Saban is that Alabama Crimson Tide soccer ought to rent somebody that’s a part of his teaching tree.

Saban, considered the unofficial biggest school soccer coach of all time, retired from his Alabama submit after 17 years and 6 trophies.

The 72-year-old’s 2023 and final season ended with a College Football Playoffs Top 4 end as they misplaced to eventual champions Michigan Wolverines.

That standard knowledge was deserted. The soccer program as a substitute signed Kalen DeBoer who led the Washington Huskies to a CFP finals look.

Alabama may have gone after somebody who underwent Saban’s teaching tree. It would not less than reduce the danger of main modifications. 

However, that is not what they have been pondering of once they employed DeBoer.  

1. Track document speaks for him

He and Saban communicate the identical language. They are each winners.

Records-wise earlier than becoming a member of Alabama, DeBoer has the most effective document at 104-12 (.896).

He brings life to the groups he joins. With Sioux Falls, which he coached from 2005 to 2009, he received three NAIA Football National Championships (2006, 2008, and 2009) and ended with an total document of 67-3.

He can also be credited for resurrecting the Washington Huskies who have been 4-8 in 2021 when he got here in. The workforce additionally had a lackluster offense, leaving him with no selection however to overtake it.

He ended his first season with the Huskies with an 11-2 document, concluded by a 27-20 victory over the Texas Longhorns on the Alamo Bowl.

The 2023 season was simply nearly as good as their solely loss (14-1) was in opposition to the Michigan Wolverines on the CFP National Championships.

2. Players’ coach, recruiting prowess can get higher

“One of the things I told our team the other day is we are going to get someone who is not only a great coach with the Xs and Os, but also someone who cares about his players and someone I’d want my sons to play for, just like I would have wanted them to play for Coach Saban,” Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne stated about DeBoer’s hiring.

Michael Penix Jr. is greater than sufficient proof of this aspect of the 49-year-old mentor.

The 2023 Heisman Trophy runner-up had his greatest yr beneath the steering of DeBoer who’s considered a quarterback guru. It ought to be famous although that the pair labored collectively already within the Indiana Hoosiers program.

Penix Jr. had his greatest quarterback ranking (136.5) with the Huskies. In his three school seasons with DeBoer, his worst quarterback ranking was 151.3.

Their dynamic relationship was proven greatest when Penix Jr. performed a near-perfect recreation in opposition to the Texas Longhorn, throwing for 430 yards that led to 2 touchdowns, and nil sacks.

As for the recruitment course of, it would solely get higher for DeBoer with Alabama now connected to his title. 

The University of Washington soccer program ranked twenty sixth in 2023. Their largest recruit was four-star, top-100 ranked quarterback signee Austin Mack.

However, he didn’t recruit a Top 20 prospect in his two years with Washington. That shouldn’t be a lot of a priority. Alabama is sort of a pit cease for gamers who need to attain the NFL. That ought to make his job simple.

3. Endorsement from Saban himself

No higher endorsement than that of the person you changed. It is like getting handpicked.

“Coach DeBoer has an excellent understanding of what it takes to be a successful head coach, whether it’s coaching, recruiting, developing players or building a culture,” Saban stated in a press release.

“He has done a fantastic job at every stop of his coaching career, and I am excited to see what he will be able to accomplish in Tuscaloosa.”

This sounds cliché but when one is aware of how formidable Saban’s teaching tree is, it’s onerous to query the phrases he used for DeBoer.
