Seriously, though, my point is it's hard to compare because he is also changing and learning and growing. 2015 Kalani may have failed in the B12, just as 2024 Kalani may have done better in independence.
One example: people like his interviews better this year. Maybe he got tired of his reputation for not being a disciplinarian and is being tougher. Hard for me to say, but you can't step in the same river twice.
All I know is (a) I always liked Kalani and (b) 2024 Kalani + 2024 team has been fun.
