Reds' coach duffeldoffel not to return for Season IV (8 February 2018)
duffeldoffel, three-time Fever Bowl champion with duffeldoffel's Reds, will be taking a sabbatical next season but may return for Season V.The QFL's winningest coach made the announcement after his team's 20-0 win against the Eagle Eyes at Fever Bowl III: "Before the game, I informed the commissioner about my decision which would not be influenced by the outcome of the Fever Bowl. Of course, I'm happy that it turned out this way."
"We've had three seasons, eight years of top-notch Football Fever," duffeldoffel said. "We've been extremely successful throughout but also had dark times like when we were forced to relocate during Season II which later turned out a darn good thing for us, of course, but still took its toll."
"It's been a hell of a ride and I just feel it's time for me to take a break from coaching and then see if the fire still burns or if it's lit again, so to speak."
Even though duffeldoffel will not be calling any plays, he still plans to stay actively involved in the QFL during Season IV.
"I have informed the commissioner that I will gladly continue to fulfill my obligations as QFL Vice President and be an analyst, which I have always enjoyed, and perform as referee, of course, because it's just a fun thing to do," duffeldoffel said.
"I love the game and I love the QFL and I surely want to be a part of it."
