your QB1 going into spring ball as they build and recover for next year. Getting right for next year is probably more important to them now than winning next week's game. Then again, look at where Retzlaff is now after having to fight tooth and nail to hold that starting spot that was bestowed upon him at the close of last year.

Also maybe deep down Whitt really does have a soft spot for Kalani, and with where things stand with his team and locker room and if he really is planning on retiring after this season, he may be doing Kalani a favor to provide BYU and extra advantage. He's got nothing to lose in doing so now.

But nah... probably not that. They are just in a tough position no matter how you spin it up there.
