I think the common disappointment is when the QB pipeline hits a dry spell.

This happens even at the best schools (thankfully). It happened to Lavell quite a bit in his last decade. Lots of discontinuity in there.

Some observations based on performance and coaches comments

A former WR is coaching the QBs, that is what's going on there

astroman

11/29/23 6:27am

Yeah he sucked at it with the last two guys.

A Drew Aitch

11/29/23 6:29am

Is that more to do with John Beck or ARod?

astroman

11/29/23 6:37am

All college QBs have an outside trainer.

A Drew Aitch

11/29/23 6:38am

Plus, the original post hinted as lack of development at backup QB, not starters

astroman

11/29/23 6:41am

thank you. To me, this is the biggest question mark. Why aren't the backups

bald man

11/29/23 7:33am

But Wilson and Hall both backups at one time and certainly progressed

Was Romney a Back up under ARod, Jaren Hall? You mean back ups this year.

It's funny how some want to assign blame without ever giving credit.

it's funny how some think you can't question the performance based on results

bald man

11/29/23 8:11am

Both those NFL QBs were backups… an NFL RB was a walk on…

Pretorian

11/29/23 10:27am

so basically arod can only develop nfl caliber guys.

bald man

11/29/23 11:08am

I believe only NFL caliber guys make it to… the NFL, regardless who’s coaching

Pretorian

11/29/23 11:57am

Not uncommon for former players to coach a position they didn’t play.

Metallicat

I remember Jim McMahon once saying about Andy Reid

Belboz

11/29/23 8:03am

I remember hearing that too. So funny.

Norm Chow coached QBs. Played guard in college.

BYU Statsman

11/29/23 6:32am

He coached WRs for years at BYU.

Les IsMore

11/29/23 12:14pm

Yes he did. And QBs.

BYU Statsman

11/29/23 12:25pm

For years I heard people complain about Norm Chow's play calling.

Benfica1

11/29/23 3:45pm

Nick Saban is calling and Mike Leach is rising from the dead

Personally, unless recruiting does really, really well this offseason

PortlandCoug

11/29/23 6:36am

Granted KS hs to navigate some difficult things like

bald man

11/29/23 7:36am

It would take a 3 win season or less for Kalani to be gone after 2024

donnerstag

11/29/23 8:51am

Defensive talent though is a big issue, DL has to get much better

PortlandCoug

11/29/23 1:12pm

Good points, but this is BYU. I predict 2 more years.

CougarMandias

11/29/23 9:52am

I think he's a really good recruiter

deliciousmocha

11/29/23 2:50pm

100% agreed. If we have a repeat performance in 2024 I think Sitake is gone

TaysomJimmerEraCoug

11/29/23 2:54pm

It would take back-to-back seasons of 4 wins or less for KS to be gone.

What do you mean Personally? Are you gonna fire him? You don’t have to worry

canofpicante

11/30/23 1:05am

Going to be a long off-season on CB

WJCougar

11/29/23 6:46am

it was a long season. 🙁

bald man

11/29/23 7:38am

We’ve had some good backup qbs last four years

niqmadu

11/29/23 7:48am

so good in fact that we'd rather play an injured starter and lose than put the

bald man

11/29/23 8:12am

I didn’t say this year. You paint with a wide brush and are forgetting that

niqmadu

11/29/23 8:18am

That is true, I wasn't thinking of them.

bald man

I think the common disappointment is when the QB pipeline hits a dry spell.

niqmadu

11/29/23 11:02am

haven't we recruited 4 start guys? but they didn't pan out?

bald man

11/29/23 11:09am

I’d have to dig in to see but it’s not uncommon

niqmadu

11/29/23 11:45am

Not all 4* players pan out

Pretorian

11/29/23 11:59am

If true, Kalani's approach to the portal will be the final nail in the coffin.

Karl Poppin

11/29/23 8:17am

I took his quote to mean

RiseUp

11/29/23 10:30am

If true, that's fine, I suppose.

Karl Poppin

11/29/23 10:47am

Same here

runningfoo

11/29/23 10:47am

Same. And I agree. Recruit players but they can't be a drain or a distraction.

That is 100% the fault of program culture and Kalani is responsible for righting the ship
