"slow starts" so Sitake will be fine (which I actually agree with).

But if you toss in Crowton's 1st year totals which actually resemble closer to Sitake's record, that narrative doesn't work. As Crowton started very strong and quickly faded. Something we didn't even want to have happen to Crowton let alone Sitake.

Wrubell is notorious for this. Loves coming up with obscure stats to fit

I think the point stands that it's too early to make any lasting determination.

"LaVell and Bronco inherited rebuilding projects. Kalani didn't."

Very well done. Zero leadership on the field and nobody really seems to know

Trinnaman committed before Bronco left. Sitake kept him, but he almost left.

Talent wise, one of our best offensive players SHOULD be Tanner.

No it hasn't, for a freshman he did great, set records. Much better than this tr

He should have included Crowton.

You need to read more than just this one tweet for the proper context

I think adding Crowton's fast start to the narrative enhances it.

Actually, I think including crowton supports his narrative even more. It's

Does "This" = "Facts"??? Not sure of the point being made.

FWIW, here are the first 17 opponents each faced:

Here's Crowton's first 17 games (14-3 record):

So what you're saying is we need to hire Crowton

yes, but just for 17 games

UA and ASU were in the WAC back then

Kalani very much inherited a rebuilding project. Have you seen our O-line?

UberDeek

9/26/17 3:46pm

Our O-line is as good as it's been since Doman. Nice try though.

9/26/17 4:21pm

It's been a rebuilding project since 2010, my friend. Nice try, though.

They both improved second season in wins vs now. Also 4-6 yrs too long. 3 yr max

I have more of a problem with the OC than Kalani.

You act like they haven't noticed and aren't doing anything to fix the problem.

totally disagree that Bronco inherited a rebuilding program...

Until you mentioned Crowton, I didn't even think about him. He's super forgettable I think to fans. We speak
