Ironic he wasn't booed. Still remember Bronco not going for it on that 4th and..
...short his first year and getting booed like heck from BYU fans at the game. I was never a fan of his stubbornness around punting when drives stalled at our opponents 30ish yd line. It illustrated his sometimes overly-conservative approach and short-sightedness regarding recruiting special teams and getting kickers who struggle to kick more than XPs. We took losses in games where a long FG would've made a huge difference (off the top of my head, Virginia in 2013).

Weird, when Crowton was coach he drove everyone crazy and hung his defense out to dry frequently by going for 4th and whatever no matter where he was on the field or what the game situation was. Are we back to that line of thinking again with Kalani? Can't we just get a normal coach somewhere in the middle? I don't need a nervous nelly of a coach who punts from the opponents 30 yd line (just to get a net gain of 10 yds) and I don't need a coach who is going to make a habit of pulling stunts like Kalani did on 4th and 19 by running his punter out of the end zone. I hope Kalani took that as a lesson and made a decision not to do that again.
