Money talks to some people but why would somebody take a job with an institution that fires coaches so quickly?

Yes, I would be happy to get paid several million only to be fired at the end of the season; but I'd also want to build something and stick wit it.

Holy Distractions... The Monty Show is now saying Kalani is a front runner for USC HC Job... James Franklin is #1 but

I like Monty but question his sources

TADOW

9/24/21 7:25am

I'm in the same boat: Like the show, question the sources.

BlueFever

What is the Monty show?

Byron McNertney

9/24/21 7:27am

Same question. Is this guy somebody?

zerome4sooners

False

Yes, USC has been really struggling to recruit Polys

darkcoug

9/24/21 7:28am

Whitt would sweat Kalani pilfering his Poly recruiting... guys Kalani couldn't get to BYU would definitely consider USC

CLCougar

9/24/21 7:35am

But Kalani at USC would mean we could lose a lot of Poly kids whose parents

Kalani's agent right now

I tried listening to his show a few times. I don’t really enjoy it. I love BYU

SouthernBlueBlood

I think Kalani's contract was likely redone with the anticipation

deljdc

9/24/21 7:45am

It’s USC. He could take his people with them.

antiyewt

9/24/21 8:02am

I would include Tom Holmoe, players and other support staff

deljdc

Monty. Knows. Nothing.

LaVellIfIKnow

9/24/21 8:01am

Pretty much agree... but I just don't like the distraction with our being poised to potentially have a great season.

CLCougar

He makes things up, imo.

We want to keep Kalani. We want Kalani’s name to be thrown around for big-time

Crowd Factor

Kalani has said LaVell was always someone he looked up to and inspired to be...

mflood

9/24/21 8:27am

I'm thinking so as well. I'm sure in retrospect LaVell is glad he didn't take the NFL Lions job. He wouldn't have got

I believe the offer was after the NC, not before.

Several on here are immediately claiming that this is false information.

They just fired a coach that for the most part was very successful by PAC12

In fairness, lots of coaches go "up" a level even when it brings less job security

krindorr

9/24/21 9:35am

Very few if any coaching job offers as much security as BYU.

ordinary tri guy

9/24/21 10:04am

That is it then, it is settled, there is no way! 2.5x increases in salary would

Loafer

9/24/21 10:32am

Y'all are assuming what the bump may be. You have no idea.

ordinary tri guy

9/24/21 11:56am

Yes, exactly, and so let's acknowledge that your statements of FACT are also

Loafer

Simply because Monte, of all people, says TRUE on the radio doesn't make it true.

molodyets

9/24/21 9:51am

Where did I argue that it was true or that Monty is believable?

Loafer

9/24/21 10:33am

And some radio guy thinking of him as a front-runner isn't wishful thinking?

Oh gotcha, you must not be able to read what I wrote then.

Loafer

Board name checks out ;-).

Don't forget there is zero job security at a place like USC.

Non issue. Non story.

If Kalani leaves then I will cry

Monty knows stirring up our fanbase generates clicks, that is all.

Bluedarts

9/24/21 9:04am

I will say this, our HC should always be in the running for high profile coaching jobs in the west. I’d be dismayed if

GangstaLean

9/24/21 9:29am

I believe Kalani would be invested in BYU being strong heading into Big12...

ApexCoug

9/24/21 9:55am

Kalani is a lifer, like Edwards was

SportsRoad

9/24/21 9:57am

I agree also BYU gave him a big opportunity when he likely would have been let

johnnybyu

9/24/21 10:08am

If true huge congrats to Kalani

DesertBlues

Why do people keep listening to Monty? His track record is abysmal and he’s the

Flyski

Because he puts on a good show.

Come on now.

USC would be dumb to get Kalani. They need a proven coach. Kalani is looking

Consider the source and ignore it.

TrueBlue67

USC head coach is a job many people want but no one can keep

Srg

The "fan base" did not like the Clay Helton hire.

md7Coug

9/24/21 12:10pm

I won't ever say never, but right now the USC program is a mess. I wager Sitake
