Kalani and recruiting.

newbie

12/12/19 10:03am

IMO recruiting hasn’t gotten worse under Kalani, but it hasn’t gotten better like we all thought it would

That’s the best way to sum it up

He did well with transfers his first season. I think it will trend up soon.

The transfer and post-mission offer list is pretty good

That's a pretty good list. 8 starters and 7 from P5 programs

The 2 that are redshirting will be helpful to the program in 2020

But our transfer list looked amazing pre-Kalani as well. Max Hall, Taysom, Kurtz

I think the new coaching staff has been killing it

This is the right perspective. Look at the depth chart and team talent.

Anyone short of Andy Reid means BYU is pretty stuck where they’re at recruiting

Correct assessment. Mediocre recruiting + average coaching = Bad losses

MichCoug

And really good wins?

Handful - .500 record after multiple years & inexplicably bad losses.

Independence has killed us. If Kalani can't recruit LDS kids to BYU, nobody can.

Talent evaluation and attrition has improved under Kalani

Oh I don't see that at all. So that is a lot of personal bias coming through.

Kalani inherited and amazing QB and RB situation.

For one year, the QB and RB situation was excellent

Squally was actually pretty good last year but got hurt quick

What Bronco had lined up for 2017 was not what Kalani put on the field.

Yea.. don't forget Bronco's biggest recruit..

I'd assign at least 50% of Mangum's success as a freshman to his receivers

donnerstag

It's amazing how that staff got 9 regular season wins from those scrubs.

kooogar

The receiving corps in 2015 was the best in the last 15 seasons

There is absolutely no evidence for this, but it keeps getting said on CB

runnincoug

12/12/19 12:24pm

I do think 2017 did more damage to confidence in the program. BYU needs to win

Benfica1

12/12/19 10:16am

This, winning is needed to help recruiting

kimdaddy35

12/12/19 10:55am

9-10 wins each season will, “help to build” confidence????

We have not lost out on *every* major Latter-day Saint recruit

Doogal McCougar

12/12/19 10:33am

Yes recruiting and rankings has only gone downhill under Sitake

kimdaddy35

12/12/19 10:50am

I think Sitake has better depth players than Bronco did, but Bronco got a couple more high end per class guys.

How much of the drop is Kalani as a recruiter and how much because of our record

Incorrect. I assume the "every major LDS" thing is hyperbole?

Shame on us for assuming he could out-recruit a P5 program 40 miles away
