Are you serious? The thread literally contains multiple screenshots/links to articles of national reporters listing Campbell as a candidate.
Also I just assume anyone who challenges reporting they don't like by asking for reporters anonymous sources is 70+.
Deboer parlayed a national title game run into the 36 best recruiting class in the country. Washington should do better than that and should have more talent than ISU, but it's not as overwhelming as you think.
Yeah and the coach who lost to Montana didn't even finish the season. I don't think that supports the point you're trying to make.
He’s a weird fit but an easy sell as he was just in the championship game and the other top coaches decided to stay where they are.Know this is about Campbell, but DeBoer seems like a weird fit at Bama. SoDak native who's spent his entire career in the Midwest and West Coast.
But, he's also an outstanding coach, so he'll probably do well.
65+? Yeah, I would say Pete Thamel has a pretty good track record lol.Not 70+ and how are the sources credible? Do they have track records of beng accurate?
Thamel and Vannini are incredibly reliable reporters but in this instance they are not reporting. They are thinking out loud on twitter.Not 70+ and how are the sources credible? Do they have track records of beng accurate?
They already had a couple 4 stars decommit. The year before they brought in 8 four stars and a solid transfer class on the back of a good season. Still good recruiting and use of the portal.I would think being top 5 all year and being in the playoffs at the time of signing day would have been helpful. And they lost one game last year, they weren't coming odd a bad year and had a ton of momentum.
The big question mark with him is recruiting. Despite making it to the NCG, his class for next year is 30th. While a lot was settled before this year’s run, he either needs to find some great recruiters or hope the Bama name does it for him.He’s a weird fit but an easy sell as he was just in the championship game and the other top coaches decided to stay where they are.
That’s the main reason Campbell is a hard if not impossible sell right now (for a team like Washington) compared to 2020/2021. You can’t take a team that just played in a championship and then hire someone who has struggled the last couple seasons.
Especially because in order to compete at the level needed to get back to the playoffs you need to recruit at a high level which he hasn’t been able to do.
I wanted cmc for both my teams a couple years ago but right now he’s a much harder sell, still an excellent coach, but it is what it is
That doesn’t count the decomits of a couple 4 stars but yeah the level of recruiting is no where near bama level. That will pick up just from being bama but he also was only good at Washington for 2 years. Takes longer than that to build a recurring platform at a place like Washington. He would have finished mid 20’s this year which is good for them. Also shows a ton of coaching skill to take that level of talent and get to the championship game.The big question mark with him is recruiting.

Yes, I do think any competent AD has a list of potential replacements ready to go at all times. No, I don't think Dannen called Thamel but Thamel likely reached out to his sources at UW and in the agent field.Thamel and Vannini are incredibly reliable reporters but in this instance they are not reporting.

For all the people panicking, they literally tweeted it shortly after Deboer was announced. You think UW had a list ready and called them right away with it?
So how did CMC end up on the list considering he does not have an agent?Yes, I do think any competent AD has a list of potential replacements ready to go at all times. No, I don't think Dannen called Thamel but Thamel likely reached out to his sources at UW and in the agent field.

Curious to why people think it’s a weird fit? Is it his coaching trajectory? Where he coached? He’s not from the south?
It's been loosely reported Washington offered him the job before DeBoer got hired (previous AD though). Wouldn't shock me if a Washington staffer told Thamel "yeah, we'll look at him again".So how did CMC end up on the list considering he does not have an agent?
I say this respectfully because I like CMC but according to this board he has been “linked” to every single NFL and college opening in history, I heard the packers wanted him and he said no so they got Vince LombardiIt's been loosely reported Washington offered him the job before DeBoer got hired (previous AD though).

Campbell not having an agent is the most over-cited thing every year. Whether it's his "accountant" who does his contract or some other intermediary, schools can and do get ahold of him if interested.
