cougarmeister How does this work?

I can't imagine he's looking to move his family and take over a high-pressure job at a school to which he has no connection.

KW is too old for them to go after. Didnt he get a sweet utah retirement package anyways

He has some type of six digit number as a "consultant" or "good will ambassador" is my memory

KW is close to retirement and wouldn't want to move away from grandkids

Will he still be coaching in 3 years when the Utes try again to beat BYU?

I doubt Kalani ever leaves BYU voluntarily.

LifeLongLakerFan

I think fringe candidate at best. They have their eyes set higher

Honest question, do you guys think anyone could poach Kalanin if they wanted?

Maybe. He's a poor kid, and he exudes that. Being a poor kid myself I can tell

Don't give them the play book to Kalani's emotions

No. He's got his dream job now

I don't know if he'll leave but they will be able to triple his salary. That's

It is if salary is not your primary motivation. I don't know Kalani, but he does

Kalani will be in line for B12 salary when B12 money comes in

I don’t think he’d jump to USC.

deliciousmocha

9/14/21 9:36am

I think the biggest issue is Kalani appears to genuinely care about his football

TO11

9/14/21 9:37am

Whitt turned down the job in 2015.

Kalani is on track for a lifetime position at his alma mater that is now a P5 school where he has things rolling

25 years at BYU > 2-3 years at USC

Agreed. Plus, Lavell is his biggest football influence and was offered many

Let's be real. Before 11-1 (against pretty weak competition,) KS was 1-2 games above 500 as HQ as byu.

9/14/21 9:43am

If you are going to discount 2020, then discount 2017 too.

Turnpike Lane

9/14/21 9:57am

Sure. Still puts him at barely over .500.

CoogsWin

I sure like his trajectory though.

Just like Lavell was a candidate for the Detroit Lions job. They wanted him, but he wanted BYU.

USC always wants someone who will come in and make an impact on day 1

BYU job is much more stable than USC. Kalani doesn't seem like the type.

CharlottesvilleCoug

9/14/21 11:49am

He has one solid season against mediocre competition. I’d imagine USC would want a better resume.

I hope neither of them get it. I want both to stay where they are for the next

Kalani will be at BYU for the next 20 yrs unless something goes completely awry

Why jump to a ship that has been sinking for years. His program is on the rise.

Whitt looked tired and old last weekend. Maybe he's feeling like he's. .
