What is the source of the conviction that Kalani has “had enough time” and

Poor recruiting. Very poor DL play for 8 years. Keeping poor coaches too long

"We need to look at the film." Yet team looks unprepared each week

TNT

Yep. Preach.

"Every week" is more than a bit of an exaggeration and certainly injuries,

Poor DL play for so many recruiting cycles is a key indictment

Families of top players haven't trusted KS with their sons' careers

except for the many top players that did. look at all those guys in the NFL

Poor DL play traces back to one source, Tuiaki. That's been addressed. Recruiting is on the upswing especially

ManicBlue

So it took a HC 8 years to figure that out? That’s a fireable offense. Anything

Idacoug

Apr 5, 9:56am

8 years? Math issues much?

ManicBlue

Idacoug isn't good at much on CB, except trolling

Only took Kalani 8 years to figure that out? 😂

I can recommend some good toys that teach kids how to count. 👍🙂

You don't remember?

C'mon that's just lazy.

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 9:23am

No. You have a search function. Use it. TNT isn't going to keep typing it all ou

TNT

Apr 5, 9:29am

Over 230,000 posts and now you have a problem typing something out? uh huh

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 9:32am

Why? You wouldn't believe it anyway

TNT

Apr 5, 9:33am

Why wouldn't I? Are they lies? I haven't been a Kalani apologist.

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 9:39am

No. You and TNT see things differently. And that's fine

TNT

Apr 5, 9:43am

I don't have a problem with that, but I have NO idea how you see things. So ...?

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 9:45am

Well search for it. TNT = most lazy but you are giving him a run for his money

TNT

Apr 5, 9:48am

Seriously? Easier for me to search your 233,000+ posts than to just give me your top 5 issues? smh

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 9:57am

Just search "kalani coach" or similar on TNT's profile

MarylandFan

Apr 5, 11:21am

Thanks, but those are all of the same generic crap. I asked him for specifics. Shouldn't be that hard.

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 11:26am

They're specific observations. I'm thinking TNT sniffed this out before me.

MarylandFan

Apr 5, 11:32am

Hahahaha that's what you call specific? Calling Kalani a lazy coach? smh Boardname definitely does not fit.

This exhibits the one of the worst styles of discussion on here.

LOL ... smh. Evidently YOU didn't read past his headlines. I read them all. They are very superficial at best.

ManicBlue

Agreed. I don't think we have a common understanding of the word "specific"

Of course, and I loved this gem.

So you don't agree then? What's your plan? Oh right ... you don't have any ideas. Gotcha

Calling timeouts out of halftime or out of another timeout.

Could say the same thing about Kiffin and Sark. Yet they improved.

I disagree.

So… do you stick with a lovable loser forever just in case he gets it?

A lot of Byu fans have this attitude.

Idacoug

All is well in Zion

TNT

Apr 5, 8:59am

He’s no more a loser than Sark at this point in Sark’s career.

Socrates Johnson

Apr 5, 9:16am

This take has already been considered and isn’t comparable to Sitake’s situation

In your mind, perhaps. Not in any reality.

Yes, and that was another tell.

I'll counter your Sarkisian and Kiffin examples.

JJCoug

Apr 5, 9:02am

Kalani appears to have learned little from Whittingham

TNT

Apr 5, 9:03am

Or is unwilling to implement it.

shammy

Apr 5, 9:08am

Problem is they’ve been trying to implement KWhit’s style but BYU isn’t Utah

Apr 5, 9:24am

You mean recruiting felons kicked off other teams?

ManicBlue

Apr 5, 9:49am

Who did Saban learn from? How did he go from Kalani (@ MSU) to Saban the Great?

Socrates Johnson

Apr 5, 9:08am

As I admitted, I don't know his story as well as the others.

JJCoug

Apr 5, 9:15am

Kalani’s HC philosophy is similar to LaVell’s. Be a players coach. But that

Short_Changed

Apr 5, 9:22am

I think I agree with this. Both are examples of how it isn’t the same problems

Socrates Johnson

Apr 5, 9:24am

The best case that can be made is that you must move around to get better

Socrates Johnson

Apr 5, 9:23am

So many CB'ers assume that we have (or should have) a Top 15 team every year

Mediocre coach + HC + high academic standards = mediocre results.

Traveshamockery

25% of his seasons are the two worst in 50+ years. He sucks at clock and timeout management, getting his team up for all

byuTX

Apr 5, 9:13am

That doesn’t really answer the question. Why no chance of improvement

Socrates Johnson

Apr 5, 9:15am

Nobody knows the future but you can infer using the power of sight/logic, not just watch the film and love one another

byuTX

Apr 5, 9:26am

Sounds like same attitude that KS used to keep Tuiaki on staff far too long.

bluesloth

That's just good comedy

No chance of improvement? What is the threshold of number of years coached

bluesloth

My counter argument: You saw a drive and strong will to win with those other

Apr 5, 9:19am

Sark & Lane have moved around a LOT

Like I said, that’s probably the best argument there is

No. It's called passion to improve and be better than you currently are

BYU Grounds

Apr 5, 9:34am

Kalani doesn't seem to improve unless he's forced to improve.

Apr 5, 9:46am

TNT is pretty certain Holmoe forced Kalani to address the Tuaiki situation

Has Saban, Kiffin, or Sark EVER gone for it on 4th and 19 from their own 5?

TLDR: Socrates is ok with bad coaching because “he might become good”

I merely asked for evidence of the contrary view. I didn’t say there is no limit

Your argument is 100% a strawman argument and that is your response? Good

kimdaddy35

Apr 5, 2:07pm

What are you talking about? I didn't make an argument. I asked why people are so

If your best argument for keeping Kalani is he MIGHT get better, then his resume

That wasn't his argument at all. He was merely asking a question which nobody can adequately answer.

Not assessing Kalani specifically...but the existence of exceptions doesn't make everything an exception
