Not the same level. But Austin Ainge is a pretty good coach from what I hear.

Does anyone know if Austin is active in the Church?

Why is it odd? It's generally assumed to be a hiring requirement for head coach.

While not a guarantee by any means, there's an assumption with RM BYU grads.

BYU would never hire an inactive head coach.

Nothing? Of course it has something to do with it. It just isn't a requirement.

I love Kalani. But his on the field results so far are the same as Bronco. Good not great.
