Kalani was hired to build a culture.

You heard the commentators last night right?
provodude84606
10/21/16 7:05am
Didn't hear this... is this true?
Agaricus
10/21/16 7:12am
Yes, but it sure sounded like the guy was talking out his yewt.

They said this before the last FG try.

Almond is 8-10 on the year, with a block. Which was an OL breakdown. He has been solid.

A miss is a miss.
provodude84606
10/21/16 8:59am
So what if a miss is a miss. That wasn't the kickers fault.
Tuskaloosa Cougar
10/21/16 9:17am
0-2 on anything beyond 40 yards
provodude84606
10/21/16 10:30am
What? So you miss 2 free throws, and then your chances of missing is 100%
Fightgar
10/21/16 11:06am
He's never made anything past 40 yards, ever.
provodude84606
10/21/16 11:16am
Dude, you have absolutely no logic in this argument.
Machiavelli
10/21/16 11:24am
Make a 40+ FG then your argument has substance.
provodude84606
10/21/16 11:33am
I figured out your problem...
Fightgar
10/21/16 11:45am
Not a big enough sample size
icecougar
10/21/16 11:48am
Sample size in this case doesn't matter...
Fightgar
10/21/16 11:50am
Can the same be said for a 80 yard FG?
provodude84606
10/21/16 11:57am
You are right - physical limitations come into play.
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:03pm
Just found it - He made a 52 yard FG in High School.
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:09pm
You're killing me smalls!

haha what heck?

I was going somewhere with it, I promise.

#meatheadlogic lollllllllllll, makes so much more sense now
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:32pm
And now the name calling starts.
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:33pm
HAHAH...did you seriously just ask me to fight? LOLLLLLLL
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:38pm
You good bro.
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:41pm
the name calling started earlier when you called me a geek.
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:45pm
But you said you didn't rush the field last game
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:51pm
Who cares that it was in high school.
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:33pm
Ok Al Bundy from Polk High.
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:35pm
I think the issue is more with your original comment is
Tuskaloosa Cougar
10/21/16 12:25pm
Uhh wrong. What you're trying to say is that stats are 100% accurate in
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:20pm
K. So somebody misses 2 half court shots.
Fightgar
10/21/16 11:32am
Right. So when I say it's at literally 100% right now, am I wrong?
provodude84606
10/21/16 11:34am
Dude, nobody is disputing the math when calculating stats on PAST performance.
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:23pm
If you had to balance what he's done compared to what he hasn't,
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:26pm
No, no, you said theres literally a 100% chance he WILL miss a 40 yarder,
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:30pm
Link to where I said going forward.
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:35pm
"His chances of missing is literally 100%."
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:37pm
Ok, so what is the percentage of him making a 40+ FG?
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:39pm
Let me help you
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:44pm
0-2 or 0% isn't 100% miss?
provodude84606
10/21/16 12:52pm
Yes, he's missed 100% of his 40+ FG attempts.
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:53pm
There have been kickers who've made 40 + consistently
provodude84606
10/21/16 1:18pm
But you're saying that he NEVER will.
Fightgar
10/21/16 1:26pm
Bro, you can't say that
provodude84606
10/21/16 1:37pm
When you say "he's a 100% miss", do you mean he has missed 100% of his 40+
Machiavelli
10/21/16 2:22pm
Do you believe Almond has a 0% chance of ever hitting a 40 yd field goal?
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:58pm
For people like you, I hope he does.
provodude84606
10/21/16 1:00pm
Hah, I had a feeling you wouldn't give me a straight answer.
Machiavelli
10/21/16 1:03pm
I've seen those guys on Instagram too
provodude84606
10/21/16 1:09pm
I can't believe I'm admitting this, but you've changed my mind.
Fightgar
10/21/16 1:13pm
I think that Provodude *really* does think that it proves he'll never make...
Fightgar
10/21/16 12:36pm
math is hard guys, give him a break
Dissenter
10/22/16 8:47am
You're a day late, bro.
provodude84606
10/22/16 2:56pm
Right, and a coach is a moron if he doesn't realize that stats can lie.
Fightgar
10/21/16 9:28am
Solid from 37 yards and in. Most NCAA kickers are solid from that range.
campilobaxter
10/21/16 10:40am
Did you see the trajectory of that kick? That's not on the O-line.
OpusX
10/21/16 4:01pm
Are you seriously trying to predict whether the FG was going to be good or not
Machiavelli
10/21/16 4:15pm
You're obviously not a fan of geometry.
OpusX
10/21/16 4:19pm
Not when youre looking at a 2 dimensional screen with very limited camera angles
Machiavelli
10/21/16 4:45pm
They also said our Kicking game was a disaster which it's not. Lamb is making it
whiteninja
10/21/16 7:41am
Almond only doesn't look like a trainwreck because Kalani will go for it on
DescendentCoug
10/21/16 8:43am
This has been a BYU issue for as long as I can remember however. Was Payne...

This is true of many teams where they're on the 30 or so and its 4th down.

Kickers are like the family dog. Sure, it's part of the family but you can kick it if you want and eat it if you have to
CougarinOZ
10/21/16 7:44am
It sounded like he told the announcers that -- not the kicker.
GlebBaser
10/21/16 7:50am
I get where you're coming from, but if that means tacking on 2 losses each year
LeftOfNormal
10/21/16 7:08am
Except kickers, he doesn't care about them apparently
acougfan
10/21/16 7:11am
Kickers aren't real people
macaroni
10/21/16 7:31am
You aren't really comparing the kicker situation to Taysom's situation are you??
Machiavelli
10/21/16 8:42am
Nope, just stating a fact
acougfan
10/21/16 11:41am
Lol, I dont think you know what a fact is
Machiavelli
10/21/16 12:20pm
Works both ways. A recruit might get the impression if he works hard and is better he may never
Agaricus

They're not family. They're football players. I don't give a crap about culture.
OpusX
10/21/16 7:16am
You describe the culture Kalani is trying to displace
CasualFan

Truth ^
provodude84606

Yeah, no. Players are different than you think.
macaroni

Losing your spot to injury is NOT what we are discussing
CasualFan
10/21/16 7:34am
I gave that as another example of loyalty to back up why he would keep taysom in the game.
macaroni

They players would be pissed until Tanner came in and moved the ball and scored

I never knew Football Players had such delicate, easily hurt feelings. Thanks.

Replacing a player in the course of a game does not mean they aren't being loyal
Spindash

i disagree here, but see your point

You shouldn't get to showcase your talent (or lack of it)

You think bama is loyal to players or any other university?
tippmancoug

Is it realistic to think BYU can build a program the same way Bama/SEC does?

I'll blame your ignorance on lack of sleep... I wasn't saying they can't do it

What is the link to Bama and BYU? Yes they both can play the player who.....
Cougstreak
10/21/16 9:40am
Does that loyalty extend to Tanner?
Cougfan12
10/21/16 7:38am
No... he was hired to coach football... not be BFF's
Coug
10/21/16 7:45am
Actually he was hired to win games.
Michicoug
10/21/16 7:47am
That's good, because he sure can't coach
coolblue
10/21/16 7:58am
So do we have to have loyalty above accountability? Can't there be both?
fudgers

The problem with this thought is it suggest he's disloyal to all other positions
Y4LYFE

The culture he's building is the same as Bronco's- reward grit over ability.
beebs4lyfe
10/21/16 11:08am
And reward seniority over ability
icecougar

That would sound nice on a Hallmark card, however....
icecougar
10/21/16 11:46am
Having a culture of "we don't play the best players" isn't a good culture.
