The Huskies and DeBoer have been locked in extension talks that have continued to persist while the Huskies went through their championship run.Now that the 2023 season is over, new Washington Athletic Director Troy Dannen is working beyond overtime to keep DeBoer and his staff satisfied and on Montlake. It's job number one, two, and three at the moment.But Saban's retirement may have thrown a huge monkey wrench into those negotiations. Would DeBoer leave Seattle for Tuscaloosa after just two season? Kim and Chris hash it out, as well as give their thoughts on the other names that have been thrown out there as initial candidates: Dan Lanning, Dabo Swinney, Lane Kiffin, James Franklin, Mike Norvell, and Marcus Freeman.
