State and Utah State helped. If he wins out, he deserves a short extension to see if he can't iron out the rest of the issues. Frankly, his trajectory reminds me a bit of KWhitt's when he first took over Utah...beat teams you aren't expected to beat, and some inexplicable losses. Eventually, KWitt figured it out. Kalani may do so as well.

Is this evidence that Kalani deserves more time/an extension?

PJ had been a HC before becoming the MN coach.

Deflect what? Kalani has always said he is ultimately the one responsible. Where's the deflecting?

Just because he stated the obvious he still ultimately said he was responsible.

If the team finishes with 8–9 wins, he gets a short extension. Probably even 7–6

7 wins is the floor at this point. The next 2 weeks are gimmes.

Did you just blame double digit 2H leads that ended in losses on injuries?
