I’ve been critical of Kalani. And he still hasn’t earned my trust. But he did say two things in his interview that I

Mr. Belding The easy way out

What exactly are his requirements for some of you guys?

Lip Gallagher

My guess.

bluecougar1985

Many hoped Kalani would be an improvement over those seasons.

Mr. Scoobs

9/15/19 12:17pm

There are other factors beyond changing coaches

If you average a 71.5 SOS, you can’t blame the struggles on that.

Mr. Scoobs

Bronco’s wins did not diminish with time.

Your subject line is false so I didn’t read the rest.

Respectfully disagree, from both a wholistic and season by season examination.

I don’t think your data says what you think it says.

I'm confident that most of the "FireBronco" crowd is now the "fireSitake" crowd. They're the same group who wanted

You’re probably right. Def a lot of overlap

Bad guess

Not to be 1-9 against Utah, USU and Boise.

Currently my only real issue with Kalani. That was a

LEHI cougar

Another issue was winning games at home — yesterday was a great step forward

ataylor

9/15/19 12:17pm

That and to have a better career winning percentage than Gary Crowton.

ataylor

9/15/19 12:14pm

Win more games, especially against Utah and Utah St.

Kerbouchard

It seems like he allows both OC and DC too much latitude with game management.

antiyewt

9/15/19 12:20pm

He needs to be the bridge too. Sometimes when the defense is winded, the offense

LaserCoug

9/15/19 12:24pm

Totally agree with that.

Mr. Belding

9/15/19 12:40pm

I think that's the next step after getting out of his coordinators way

Resurgens

9/15/19 1:07pm

He’s tried to pattern our offense after the yewts. Running, grind it out and then tough defense. We can’t be the yewts.

Mr. Belding

9/15/19 12:29pm

lol please stop with this nonsense. You don't know what you're talking about.

The play calling yesterday was SO creative! Stop just regurgitating old stuff.

I don’t think this is true at all. What evidence is there that this is true?

Resurgens

That’s fine he said that. But those mistakes have not stopped.

You're spot on.

RUNBYU1

Yet. They are getting less frequent IMO.

jkccoug

I’m actually not unhappy with Kalani. He’s doing a good job. But they aren’t

dchandle15

I feel like it’s one every other game instead of 2-3 a game

Maybe less frequent, but are appearing at the absolute worst time

Meh. The coaches did very well this game. Even after game comments worked

No, you take the points there

OrangeCougar

All the analytics say go for it.

All-American

It is a no brainer, but the other way.

CougarMandias

9/15/19 3:58pm

Smarter people than all of us. Analytics is the future of good coaching

Resurgens

9/15/19 4:20pm

It's possible to rely too much on analytics

CougarMandias

Exactly. See chart:

I see both sides but I’m with you on this one

I could see going with the FG after the weirdness that happened on the first

I feel we won that game yesterday in spite of the coaching....

I’m cautiously optimistic — I feel like overall the coaching and game-planning

ataylor

Yep. Great win, and some good coaching involved, but some bad decisions that

Resurgens

Weird personnel changes?

puntersarepeople

Like putting in Hall in place of Wilson, Dayan in for Ty'son

The coaching was not “good.” It was great.

All-American

Kalani is doing awesome.
