It was widely discussed at the time that a lot of the points given up by the D should've been attributed to the offense because of the number of short fields.

Grimes is Kalani's saving grace.

That won't fix the defense

Hinta

8/14/18 11:09pm

Offense that can keep possession more than 3 plays will definitely help defense

Game Changer

8/14/18 11:26pm

hope Collie, Davis, Simn are our 3 main wr's then

CarolinaCoug

8/14/18 11:44pm

So would a defense that could get 3 & outs. The D was nearly as bad as the O.

TeeKaa

Offense was much worse - ranked #118 nationally. Defense ranked #51 - not good,

Game Changer

We will just have to disagree.

TeeKaa

8/15/18 11:20am

Actually a good offense is a tremendous help to a defense. Keeps them fresh

Yunit

As bad as the season was, the D was ranked 51 (slightly above average).

Benfica1

8/15/18 8:10am

Yes it will.

We really haven’t seen anything yet

I agree. But we are seeing a real coach.

Hawk Talons

8/14/18 11:12pm

Every coach is a real coach. We don't know if he is a good OC yet

Ryan M

8/15/18 5:02am

What's his past track record calling plays?

byubyu

8/15/18 7:40am

We know he was consulted numerous times by the OC he worked under on

Hawk Talons

8/15/18 8:51am

wasn't he calling run plays at LSU last year?

here's to hoping

8/15/18 9:21am

Spoiled little fans that are afraid of a little disappointment (last year).

Benfica1

8/15/18 8:17am

Grimes WILL turn it around, I absolutely guarantee it.

OldCosmo

8/14/18 11:10pm

That bar is set pretty low. Would hope he can turn it around.

Grimes isn’t anybody’s anything until the games are played.

Ocho Cuatro

8/14/18 11:17pm

He has been a lot of big time guys stud offensive line coach.

Hiring Bronco didn’t save Crowton’s job

CaliWG

8/14/18 11:23pm

Well, if after 2 more terrible seasons Grimes becomes HC and gets BYU 9to10 wins

LeftOfNormal

8/14/18 11:52pm

Is Grimes LDS?

Bronco’s 1st D was top 15 in what category?

icecougar

#14 in Total Defense (Yards per game) & #16 in Yards per play

CaliWG

Premature celebration has never led to bad results for BYU fans.

Hodor

8/15/18 12:04am

I'm not celebrating prematurely.

Hawk Talons

8/15/18 12:06am

You're implying that the players did not respect Ty the same way initially.

Yunit

8/15/18 6:17am

If at this time of the year you don't believe in a heisman and NC for your team

BrotherBrighamsBeard

8/15/18 10:16am

What fruits have we seen? Grimes' offense still hasn't scored a single point.

che flaco

8/15/18 12:09am

8/15/18 4:58am

They're doing great against the BYU defense in practice

BYU Fan

8/15/18 8:03am

We haven’t even played a down w/ Grimes as OC

zerome4sooners

8/15/18 12:22am

How about some credit to Kalani for hiring him?

GOR

8/15/18 12:27am

until BYU can start recruiting inside of the top 60, one assistant coach isn't

franklyvulgar

8/15/18 12:43am

Amazing to me more people don’t recognize this simple fact. Recruiting against

Gathers

It’s amazing what good coaching can overcome in

8/15/18 1:51pm

Well said...unfortunately I believe that Sitake is not a great coach today.

Gathers

What is the purpose for this post?

LifeLongLakerFan

8/15/18 2:09am

So far all Grimes is showing is that he is an above average interview.

Six Foot Seven

8/15/18 3:51am

More no than yes regarding the defense...

icecougar

8/15/18 4:06am

We also thought Ty was awesome before his first season of OC started.

deljdc

8/15/18 6:29am

Most of us still thought he was awesome before last season started. So much hype this time last year.

Refugee

8/15/18 6:36am

Hopefully you can recognize big difference between Ty's situation and Grimes'

Goliath

8/15/18 7:57am

I do see the difference, and despite saying "we" I was very nervous two years

deljdc

8/15/18 10:32am

And once again we see just how important good

1CougFan

8/15/18 6:56am

Your logic is flawed

kapcreations

8/15/18 7:04am

Because KS does not understand how to instal discipline and accountability

coolblue

8/15/18 7:12am

He doesn’t understand it?

kapcreations

8/15/18 7:35am

Agreed. If things go well, Grimes is here 2 seasons, 3 tops.

BleedCougarBlue2

8/15/18 9:43am

anything good Kalani does = luck. Anything bad = Kalani is clearly a terrible

Bostonblue

8/15/18 10:23am

I love having an undefeated OC

Coogar2

8/15/18 8:09am

We haven’t seen any fruits. We haven’t even seen one snap.

AFcoug7

8/15/18 8:10am

And we have another OC who has never called plays in college

Tricky

8/15/18 11:08am

We said the same thing about Kalani - its nice to hear intense guys, see Ra-Ra

OGSuperfan

8/15/18 8:21am

Assuming that Grimes is able to turn the offense around, Kalani deserves some

whozit

8/15/18 8:36am

I have no problem with Grimes. I DO have a problem with our QB coach.

BleedCougarBlue2

8/15/18 9:42am

You’ll have to find a way to get over it since

kapcreations

8/15/18 3:28pm

Did Roderick kick your dog?

Benfica1

8/15/18 5:15pm

Ha! Let’s wait for at least 4 games before we elevate Grimes

UNHuskerCoug

8/15/18 11:13am

remember just like Anae with Bronco, Ty was forced on Kalani...
