Who would be the Kalani of BYU Basketball? Is there one out there?

Not the same level. But Austin Ainge is a pretty good coach from what I hear.

Does anyone know if Austin is active in the Church?

That's an odd question.

Why is it odd? It's generally assumed to be a hiring requirement for head coach.

While not a guarantee by any means, there's an assumption with RM BYU grads.

that's because people knew they were active. you're the one making a big deal

BYU would never hire an inactive head coach.

There's a better chance BYU would hire a non member than hire an inactive member

I don't think Tommy would like coaching at BYU. Know him personally, not really

Being a good player has nothing to do with being a good coach.

Nothing? Of course it has something to do with it. It just isn't a requirement.

I like Kalani but didn't see anything better on field.Are you referring to hype?

I love Kalani. But his on the field results so far are the same as Bronco. Good not great.

I likewise prefer Kalani in a number of ways to Bronco, but let's be fair...
