Shane Reese calls you up and appoints you BYU AD. What are your first moves?

Fire/extend Kalani?
Fire/extend Pope?
Allocate more money to assistants?
Fire Santiago?
Give an ultimatum to the Big 12 (kick Utah out or no more Cougar Tails for visiting authorities)?
Start planning next year's Halloween costume?

You have ultimate authority to do anything you want in the athletic department. What's your move?
