With FB suspended and Pa'u injured, we went from rich to poor in a big hurry.

Kalani probably has one chance to shake up his staff. Here's what I'd do.

I'm on the Dennis Simmons for OC bandwagon. Pay him $500K.
dYrtbYkerYder
10/23/17 2:35pm
I don't think he's ever been an OC before. Seems incredibly risky.
Bostonblue
10/23/17 2:37pm
You may be right. I've advocated for your option too. The Ok State route.
dYrtbYkerYder
10/23/17 2:38pm
What could go wrong?

Simmons has been a wide receivers coach, not an OC.
Cougtruth
10/23/17 4:28pm
I like him because he's coached in two of college football's best offenses.
dYrtbYkerYder
10/23/17 5:43pm
He's not LDS.
dYrtbYkerYder

Why does that matter for a coordinator position?

Sorry about that. I was responding to the CB’er who wanted Simmons.

I agree 100%. I don't see BOT buying in. Football is not close to top priority.

Why fire Kaufusi?

Bostonblue
10/23/17 2:40pm
Once again, he is inexperienced coaching linebackers.
Brigham
10/23/17 2:43pm
That's because he's a D-line coach, not a LB coach.

We need more disciplinarians on this staff. That's not Steve. Love the guy

Well if we're looking at more disciplinarians, I have a few suggestions:
crazY
10/23/17 2:52pm
this is basically my point. Brian Kelly fired almost everyone.
Bostonblue
10/23/17 2:55pm
And my point is firing Kaufusi doesn't do anything.

I haven't been satisfied w/ our D-line play for years. Every time we played a

If you wanted a disciplinarian then we should have paid Bronco to stay

Nope. Fred is one of the few bright spots on the team. But Butch

Isn’t Butch playing with a broken hand?

He hurt it during the USU game. He didn't look good before that either.

Knee issue all year. Playing hurt all year.

no excuses once you strap on your helmet. everyone is playing hurt.

Really strange angle there. LB's have been fine.

14 years in the NFL acting as a de facto QB coach.
