Which is why he probably has 1 more year regardless of what happens this year

Not true. Yes, the BOT/admin will balk at first but will then act because

Okay Thanos.

Unless it's REALLY bad (unrealistically so, like 1-11 or 2-10). 3-9 would be a tossup

I disagree. The "hemoraging" would start (starters transferring/recruits

gopman

So you think 4-8 gets Kalani fired? I think that gets ARod canned and buys KS another year

Look at the anger after a 5-7 season that started 5-2 . I think 5-7=Arod gone

You could be right, but to me that seems overly optimistic for Kalani

tacallaway

Aug 17, 1:42pm

Yeah, we aren't too far off

krindorr

Aug 17, 2:44pm

I'd say we're pretty close

tacallaway

3 losing seasons in 9 years? Yes, Kalani is fired if he doesn't hit 6 wins.

gopman

Aug 17, 4:40pm

Your definition of REALLY bad is wack

LateToTheGame

He's got a long extension and the reality is that BYU doesn't fire coaches quickly

krindorr

Aug 17, 3:08pm

Doesn’t the AD who hired the mediocre coach usually go as well?

Aug 17, 4:46pm

I can't see any scenario (based on the 2024 football season) where BYU fires Holmoe

krindorr

Aug 17, 4:56pm

Yeah, the AD that just excited the fan base hiring KYoung is quite safe

What assumptions are used to estimate this? And how do we validate them?

DirtyWater

I think you have to trust one of the best college sportswriters has good sources, I guess.

Indy Coug

Aug 17, 10:32am

So his source is Kalani’s agent?

DirtyWater

Aug 17, 10:35am

How would I know? But that COULD be where he got the info.

Indy Coug

Aug 17, 10:35am

He has no idea and basically states as much.

At worst, it’s a very educated guess

Indy Coug

Aug 17, 11:34am

There is a reason it is a pretty big gap. But yes 100% it is an educated guess.

kimdaddy35

Aug 17, 5:40pm

Speculation that he makes 3 million and he’s contracted through 2027?

Please use Qualtrics everyone.

Well done

TNT

Aug 17, 10:43am

But he’s in such huge demand even Oregon wanted him so maybe all these schools

Even the local media has KS on the warm seat…will be interesting if KS

SoggyBB

He’s had great timing with his good and poor seasons.

cougfanz

Aug 17, 10:37am

I highly doubt that's the case. This is just a guess and they say as much.

So much for the “Kalani is only making around $1.5 million”. I’ve been saying for years that his total comp has been

Zach Morris

Several insiders have said Kalani makes slightly more than Young

tacallaway

Aug 17, 1:06pm

And yet we keep hearing "money & resources" as excuses as if he had

gopman

Aug 17, 3:39pm

Yes!!! Our FB team finally made a pre-season list!

BYU Tar Heel

That’s why his extension for that long was a joke

SaintJeff

Aug 17, 3:03pm

Well worth it.

BYUSunriver

Aug 17, 5:22pm

3 wins or less Kalani is let go, 4-5 wins he is told he has one more year

This is exactly where I fall as well

I can see why boosters are all in on basketball
