data-mm-id=”_we1ectqjk”>There were probably a fair amount of Washington Huskies fans who planned to wake up early to hear what Kalen DeBoer had to say about his future and all the noise about him replacing Nick Saban at Alabama. Perhaps they set an alarm, thinking it'd be worth it to rise and shine and get some sort of reassurance from the man who took a team to the brink of a national title. But they will not be getting any of that because his scheduled interview with 93.3 KJR in Seattle has been canceled. The station put out an interestingly worded note about the schedule change at 6 a.m. local time.Husky fans, we know you were looking forward to a visit with Coach DeBoer this morning.Please understand that Coach DeBoer & UW Athletics are continuing to work towards a future we can all be excited about. At this time, Coach will not be joining us this morning, but we will reschedule our interview soon. #PurpleReign.#Husky fans, we know you were looking forward to a visit with Coach DeBoer this morning.Please understand that Coach DeBoer & UW Athletics are continuing to work towards a future we can all be excited about.

It's too late to warn against reading too much into this because it's 2024 and this is the internet. You would think that a coach who was staying would be able to do an interview, though. The real fear is that coach going on the radio and saying a bunch of things that are immediately undone when he leaves. Can't have that. But then again if DeBoer does jet for warmer pastures, he's still going to get a ton of unreasonable hate from a scorned fanbase anyway so what's the actual difference?

Inter head coach Antonio Conte has confirmed he turned down the chance to join Roma earlier this year.
Conte was linked to Roma before taking over at Inter and, ahead of a meeting between the two sides on Friday, revealed he held preliminary talks with the Giallorossi.
The move came in the off-season, before Conte knew of Inter s interest, but the former Chelsea boss decided the timing was not right.
Conte spoke to ex-Italy team-mate and Roma legend Francesco Totti about the position before Paulo Fonseca was appointed in June 2019.
Totti, who spent his entire playing career with Roma, was a director at the club until he resigned the same month as Fonseca was installed.

The next step is obviously to get a win, Hutchinson said after the draw with Bulgaria.

Market: Norwich win
Odds: 19/20 @
Hoping to extend their stay in the play-off places this weekend, Norwich will welcome Sunderland to Carrow Road on Sunday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, while Norwich might have opened 2023 in the midst of an extended nightmare, David Wagner s men have come roading back in some style. Last seen putting in another thrilling display as they claimed an action-packed 3-2 victory away at Millwall, the former Huddersfield boss should find the mood around Carrow Road at a real high. Finding a route into the play-off places and with their sights set on booking an immediate Premier League return this year, the Canaries have now collected 13 points from their last five Championship outings. Likewise, along with winning each of their …
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says Arsenal s long Premier League title wait is helping them score late goals and insists the Gunners are still favourites for the domestic crown.
Arsenal s 3-0 win at Fulham on Sunday meant they restored their five-point lead over second-placed City with 11 games to play.
The Gunners latest win was more routine in comparison to the recent 3-2 triumph over Bournemouth where Reiss Nelson netted a 97th-minute winner, or last month s thrilling come-from-behind 4-2 victory at Aston Villa.
Guardiola argued Arsenal s long drought for a Premier League title, having not claimed the honour since 2003-04, was fuelling their belief late in games.
On the contrary, the Catalan sensed City lacked that desire having lifted four of …
Making history and not revenge is at the forefront of Atletico Madrid s mind as they lock horns with Real Madrid in the Champions League final, said Spanish midfielder Saul.
Atletico and Madrid will go head-to-head in Milan on May 28 in a rematch of the 2014 decider.
Madrid triumphed 4-1 after extra time in the final in Lisbon two years ago, but Saul insisted his team-mates are not seeking revenge as Atletico bid to win a maiden Champions League title.
If Real Madrid are a superior team, they will need to prove it on the field, he told Radio MARCA on Thursday.
The final in Milan is not a rematch of Lisbon, or a chance for revenge, but rather it is a chance to make history.
We know that Madrid are a tough team. It will be very difficult [but] I…
Gareth Bale has praised Zinedine Zidane for allowing Real Madrid s stars the freedom they need to perform at their peak.
Zidane has overseen a transformation of fortunes at the Santiago Bernabeu since taking over from Rafael Benitez in January, with Madrid having a Champions League final against Atletico Madrid on the horizon after coming close to snatching the Liga title away from Barcelona.
Madrid head into Saturday s European showpiece at San Siro on the back of a 12-game winning run in La Liga, and Bale says Zidane, a great of the game as a player with France, Juventus and then Los Blancos, has adopted the correct approach in his first senior coaching role.

But former champions Germany and France, whose qualifying campaigns have yet to hit top gear, will be looking to the tried and trusted to spark them closer to South Africa.
England have enjoyed two wins from two games under new coach Fabio Capello, the last of which was an impressive 4-1 win in Croatia which propelled them to the top of Group Six and sent Arsenal teenager Theo Walcott s reputation into orbit.
The 19-year-old s hat-trick in Zagreb should make him a first choice in Saturday s clash with minnows Kazakhstan at Wembley and against Belarus in Minsk four days later.

Gareth Bale and Keylor Navas have been used to promote Real Madrid s new home kit for next season, despite both being heavily linked with a move away from the club.
Zinedine Zidane s men are undergoing a major rebuild following a poor 2018-19 campaign, with more than €100million already being spent to bring in Eder Militao and Luka Jovic.
