fattycoug Intervention Needed

Reason he will come back is because he doesn't want to go out on a 4-7 season. That's about him and not the program, whether he admits/realizes it or not.

Whittingham casting a vote of No Confidence on Scalley as HC?

Kyle staying and the remarks both make no sense.

why would he care what his successor does?

LeonMarek

Why wouldn’t he care? He’s going to have a position in the athletic department

Polecat

He's going to be paid $1m/yr for five years to mentor his successor

BYU Fan

Sounds like he’s set himself up pretty well

Polecat

That's the logical inference.

I think he just doesn't want to go out on a losing note

It would be worse (for him) to have another ugly season and then get pushed out

thewaterboy

True but he has a rather large ego

Huge Manatee

1:15pm

He wants to go out as the greatest coach the U has ever had. If he had run through the XII this year like

Best coach ever for them - was there 2 years and gone at the first chance he had

crack

Well yes but they sort of take all that he did after and say "see he was the greatest" and "his tenure led to a decade

scall

I think he's smart enough to realize that's it's not going to get better. They've lost their best recruiting advantage

ManicBlue

yeah, this would be more about Whit's ego. He was planning on retiring.

runnincoug

Yep - they lost a lot on offense

Huge Manatee

As underwhelming as their offense was this year, next year could be

Sounds like someone not ready to retire.

Or that he has no interest going out on a low note.

This is most likely reason, KW is not a humble man.

A bold move by Scalley would be to bolt. I would get tired of just waiting around indefinitely. This coach-in-waiting

If he hurries, he can probably get the USU job

BYU Fan

This. And in the PAC12 too!

Longseason

Or he could take over for Jay Hill as DC for BYU

Cooouuugs

Yep. They want their cake & eat it too. Imagine he sees other chances passing by while they toy w/ him.

fattycoug

That's exactly what it is and Kyle is too obtuse to see it.

rad dawg

1:18pm

I doubt he sees it that way. My guess is he doesn't feel it would be right

Ghost of Peanut

1:39pm

I think this is right, but he's wrong about that.

Whittingham hanging around only serves Whittingham.

Accipiter

He did??

Dr MoBYU

Wow you took enormous leaps there. No idea where you got that idea from or

ColonelMustard

What exactly were his comments?

KWhitt is all about KWhitt.
