First of all, think about it for two seconds. Do you really think this was the first indication from Tom that an extension is in the works? No, of course not. Tom - an AD who legitimately cares about the young people who play at BYU - was using an opportunity to show support for a coach in a way that would make the team excited. On senior day. They deserve that.
The extension is and has been in the works. It was already a done deal. Kalani knew it, Tom knew it, the media knew it.
And lost leverage? Umm. Okay?
Tom: Kalani, we're giving you two more years
Kalani: But, Tom. You're forgetting. You wore the short.
Tom: Oh. Right. Well, you write the terms and have it on my desk. I will sign it.
Clown post.
