They are an independent. This year they scheduled tough against some Power 5 teams and, of course, those games disappeared. I do believe if that they continue to to run the table, they deserve consideration for a playoff berth over 1 or 2 loss Power 5 teams. Have watched them twice and they are pretty freaking good.

Coach Sitake is having a good run. I thought he did a decent job his one season at OSU.

Not surprisingly, I feel just the opposite. I felt like he insisted on running a scheme relying on D linemen that we didn’t have. Not a one.

Am I not entitled to my opinion without being accused of harboring a grudge? Do you have a Kalani Sitake fathead on your wall?

Not sure why you would post it in the first place if you were going to be all butt hurt that someone could possibly respectfully disagree with you. But hey, it’s a free country. Have at it.

Is the purpose of this board to come here and be kind to anyone who was ever associated with OSU, or to make and discuss statements made about the same? If it’s what you just said, I think Gary Andersen did some decent things with the team while he was here. Jay John always carried himself well and was decent to the players in the post loss interviews. Lavonda Wagner brought a decent amount of intensity to the program. Happy now? Sheesh. Not to throw any facts in the discussion, but Sitake took a bad defense ranked 82nd giving up 424 yds and took them to 121st yielding a cool 509 yards!

GAG was the worst and insisted on his own idiotic 3-4 version. IMO, Sitake did well, when one remembers who his boss was. Sitake left what was very obviously a sinking ship and found a greener pasture. Good for him. Good luck to Sitake in his endeavors. I have no ill will against him. GAG on the other hand................

I'm not disagreeing with anything you've said, except for the Andersen did some decent things part, but didn't Andersen tell Sitake to change the defense from 4-3 to a 3-4. I don't even think Sitake had experience running that defense. I don't know if it would have been any better if they'd stuck with the 4-3, but I always thought it was a bad decision to switch the way they did.

Keep in mind, Sitake's seat was pretty warm at BYU prior to this season. Lucky for him their schedule turned into a joke, and now he'll pad his record. Their schedule isn't even MWC-level, more like a WAC schedule. Texas St, N. Alabama, W Kentucky, UTSA, Troy? No way that schedule gets them into playoff consideration. A 27-25 overall record for a head coach at BYU going into this season isn't winning over most BYU fans, especially while the Utes have passed them by. Sitake was very smart to leave his "brother" CGA and get out before his reputation tanked any further. That OSU defense the year he was in charge, 2015, was the worst I've seen at OSU since the Avezzano years. That doesn't happen by accident.

The Andersen Etc part was sarcasm that was hard to type! I didn’t know that Sitake was directed to run the 3-4, but knowing what I know now about GAG it just figures.

Sitake had never coached the 3-4 in his entire life. Sitake played fullback, too, so he had never even played in a 3-4. I have always been floored that Sitake, of all people, was GAG's choice to implement a 3-4 and that they did it all in one season versus trying to implement a 3-4 in a more phased approach. GAG 100% did not know what he was doing, and Sitake's one season is an excellent example of GAG's ineptitude.
