He needed a new challenge and BYU was ready to try and take the program to a higher level.

Problem is they blundered the hire and now the bar has been set far below Bronco's lowest standards.

Ok- time for a controversial post.

People here actually still believe Kalani has a higher ceiling despite having a

Bronco's floor was 6 wins at BYU, so a technically false statement

2005 finish=55. 2016-2019 finishes = 36, 112, 63, 67.

Mr. Scoobs

There were also 11 less FBS teams in 2005

Fans will never be the experts at objective comparisons.

Mr. Scoobs

That’s true..... Kalani got an extension after mediocrity

Who thinks that? I think KS is in way over his head and the program's tanking

Sad face because it looks to be true.

Doesn’t KS have 2 previous HCs in his staff? He’s not over his head

And with all that HC experience we still got Toledo and Hawaii?

Just because kilane is a terrible doesn't mean Bronco was good.

Have you noticed what Bronco has done at UVA?

Oh, nice dodge padawan- did you think BYU needed a new/better coach?

PJMort

4/8/20 3:57pm

I did. I'll own it. Bronco is fine, and if he's the best we can ever hope to do,

He’s not and it’s not even debatable. LaVell Edwards was.

If your coach is winning 9-10 games per year, forcing him out is a bad idea.

PJMort

4/8/20 4:14pm

Well, 8-9 is more accurate. And the talent he was recruiting was consistently

SandYFan

4/8/20 4:16pm

And yet he still won 8-9 games with that "declining" talent.

TheLoneCougar

4/8/20 4:19pm

And zero special seasons since 2009. I would like more.

SandYFan

4/8/20 4:24pm

KS hasn't provided ANY special seasons thus far. Bronco is lightyears ahead of KS, but I think this is more a BYU issue.

TheLoneCougar

4/9/20 7:33am

Problem is most are not equally demanding of Kalani.

Mr. Scoobs

4/8/20 4:20pm

Like I said- those people should sit this one out.

PJMort

Some people get it.

How some were discontent with Bronco yet somehow we apologize for Kalani

Bronco got owned in the rivalry game

Bronco is a Taysom hill injury (or two) away from the special season everyone

Same story for many teams years in year out

What matters more than what I thought is Bronco thought BYU needed a new coach.

That's not how that works. I wanted Bronco gone, and I never thought the next

Nope. You were wrong. Sorry. Flagrant 2. You must go sunbathe like Jake at Pepp.

It was time for Bronco to move on. He has proven he’s a good coach though.

I never wanted to move on from Bronco, and I am very skeptical of this coaching

cougaman

Agreed, never wanted Bronco gone either, but not a fan of current coaches.

here's to hoping

4/9/20 7:58am

I was ok with Bronco leaving on his own, which he did. I didn't Kalani near the top of any list to replace Bronco.

Nice to have an occasional post from the silent majority. Thank you

I doubt that the "silent majority" is enamored with the worst coach in 50 years

Same goes for the Tanner over Taysom whiners. Their QB opinion is invalid.

How some CBers react when faced with clear facts that they were wrong.
