I would have liked to see them coach together. KS should have been an assistant but they would not pay the money to do it.

Me too.

I get it from a public relations point of view, but Bronco's curmudgeon schitck was also part of why he was successful. He didn't suffer fools, and that brought accountability.

I'm not a Bronco apologist (nor was I ever a Bronco hater), but I think Bronco shared those same strengths that are listed for Kalani. The difference, I think, is that Bronco was more comfortable showing that in close quarters. Group settings and building relationships from scratch took a lot of energy out of him, but those same settings give energy to Kalani--he enjoys it. Introvert vs extrovert.

I'm not sure how you'd yoke a Bronco and a Sitake together on a staff, at least not at the point in their careers where they are/were. Bronco wouldn't put up with Kalani as his DC. But maybe Kalani as a head coach with Bronco as his DC?

Kalani maybe has the temperament that could work as a head coach with more experience, but he'd need some hatchet-men underneath him. Hopefully Grimes can do that.

But this brings up a broader question--is there a good example of a successful head coach like Kalani? Someone with great people skills but perhaps struggles with applying standards and accountability and leaves that to assistants? Are there any nice-guy head coaches? Mack Brown is the only one that comes to mind, and his chumminess with the boosters eventually proved a distraction that led to the collapse of the Longhorns program.

Kalani is anti-Bronco. All of the people skills, none of the leadership skills.

i can see his strengths and i am behind him as a fan. I hope he cleans up the locker room and gets these guys where they need to be. GO COUGARS!

Totally not trying to troll, here: What do you see as Sitake's strengths? My disappointment may have blindered me to some positive aspects. I do see that he seems like a good man who genuinely cares about people.

I'm not speaking for crazycougar84601, but from my perspective these are some of his strengths:

1. Loves people
2. Loves BYU
3. Loves BYU's history
