NYC and Japan All-American

Belief in the O ultimately won the game along with amazing performances by ST and 2nd half D.

Kalani IS the guy.

He needs an analyst/assistant to help make in game decisions

yes he does, and seems to have that this year. Needs that every year.

Really? Time management has been as bad as ever. It almost cost us against UU

That wasn’t all on him. Took too much time for plays to come in. Honestly…

Did they use any signs at the game, or just the radio?

Geez way to extrapolate crap from nothing

“No, don’t go for it here.” Or “STOP letting the O sub under 25 seconds” or “don’t fake a punt in your end zone”

The 4th down decisions are something I think the team has been excellent at the last few years

He’s improved. Not in a rival game, not when you have momentum, are on your own 45, and ARod is struggling

Not in a rival game? You have a curious set of demands

Sorry I meant that all as one set of circumstances, each building on the next. I’m ok with going but not in that moment

I’m fine with it in many circumstances. It was a mistake then. Especially vs a bad O. No need to give them momentum and

So he needs a coach to be a head coach for him to make the head coaching

In-game decisions are not "everything a head coach is supposed to do." In fact,

To be fair I think he should also delegate preparation and planning aspects (and not to ARod)

Yep, Kalani is failing so dramatically he has failed to lose a game. FIRE KALANI

He clearly does need help

You clearly need help. The team is undefeated with 2 top 25 wins

Not an obsession just an accurate observation. It’s by far his biggest flaw and what keeps him from being great

We REALLY need to stop wasting time outs on standard procedures like

He used to waste them coming out of timeouts. So at least it’s not worse

I just get frustrated that he wastes so many timeouts carelessly. 90% of the

People that think 2nd half timeouts, scores, clock management…are more important

Nov 12, 7:19am

But is Kalani to blame for the clock management ending the half? I bet A-Rod

He took blame for it in the postgame tho.

BlueVU

Of course, he’s not going to throw his coordinator under the bus.

Kalani said ARod had the play in. Communication issue with whether they were

TJ Woods has been a great hire. Poppinga too.

He 100% is. I love him. Also, I pray he learns that 1 timeout > 5 yards 🤪

1 timeout is not always >>> 5 yards.
