IIRC Retzlaff said he didn't even meet Kalani until he was signed and on campus
but that had he met him sooner he would've been even more committed because of how impressive Kalani was.
Seemed odd to me for the head coach to not even meet with a recruit for the most important position on the team.

Saying you can’t gel as a team bringing in portal transfers is non-sense.

Kalani isn't the most proactive coach around

Do you really believe that's THE reason for BYU's relatively low portal activity in 2024?
Underhill

That’s a non-sequitur. Still have 85 scholarships and portal guys…

Kalani is not the guy who is going to tirelessly outwork all of the other coaches around him

Pretty good summary

but what's interesting about that is he was billed as a GREAT recruiter

Recruiting has fundamentally changed with NIL + transfer portal.

It has and that is fortunate for Sitake has he has done better with this model.

I think he is a great recruiter, maybe not a great closer

How much of that is you connecting dots to match your preconceived notions?

It is all based on experiences and results.

So connecting the dots
Charles Darwin

So only those who are LITERALLY in the room can have an opinion?
gopman

You can have an opinion on the results, where did I say you couldn’t?
Charles Darwin
12:02pm
Again, does one have to be in the room to have an opinion?

Again to have an opinion on the results? No. To have an opinion on the process

We still go after plenty of big recruits. Your assumption is 100% wrong.
kimdaddy35
12:15pm
I feel like he targets recruits he thinks he can get rather than every big star
Charles Darwin
12:27pm
LOL, he offered like 2 guys in 8th grade. Who we are going after has not changed one iota

I think these two articles list 7

LOL, they list 5 and one of them was Bronco's recruit. But nice try.

I love your lack of rationality. Let's agree the number is 6. Sitake offered about 500
kimdaddy35
1:17pm
What 8th graders has he offered recently? Where is 500 coming from?
Charles Darwin
1:33pm
So you are claiming that before he went after ones he knew he couldn't get?
kimdaddy35
1:43pm
Yes he just didn’t know it at the time and now he has a better idea.
Charles Darwin

According to 247 BYU has already offered 98 for the class of 2025.

Your answer is in direct contradiction with facts.

It wasn’t just 8th graders. It was a number of 8th and 9th graders he went all
Charles Darwin

You claim the big donors are holding back because they don’t believe in him.

For example... Kalani sat in a recruits living room after Ty was fired and said

I should add though that unlike many other coaches Kalani will treat their son like family
