    It's amazing they kept him around after the BYU game fiasco. I assume he will survive this as well, which will be great, but he is a PR nightmare for the school. He is a huge liability. It's wonderful!

      He must be providing some kind of value to still be there. I wonder what it is.
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        Isn’t he the guy that pushed for the $50mm per school tv deal, which ultimately killed the Pac10?

          No, I am pretty sure that was the prior university president.

            Must have finally woke up and took it down.

            But it lives forever on the internet.

              Everyone feels some kind of way when a big recruit bails. But what a blunder. Kalani is too classy to exploit it (although maybe the other coaches are not). Maybe it speaks for itself. Regardless: #ExtendHarlan

                Not to mention it is a really dumb strategic blunder. The Moa kid hasn't played a down of college ball yet. It is entirely possible he could be in play for the transfer portal in a year or two. Why poison the well with something like this?

                  Yeah, and Kalani takes that approach. He may really have been drunk.

                    Hmm, I just looked and it was their president, Taylor Randall, that proposed that offer. It's crazy how bad the leadership is at that campus. Well, I guess it's not surprising given the level of academics going on there...

                      Can't believe he kept it up as long as he did. I'd be embarrassed by the sole fact that it is completely incoherent. That tweet doesn't even make sense. I'm sure the U loves being rep'd by someone that doesn't even know how to write a complete sentence.

                      Don't forget his "Give me a break" tweet too about the Big 12. That one, amazingly, is still up:



                      Never change Harlan.

                          I didn’t know if there was a “weird things Utes do” thread so I put it here. Feel free to move as appropriate.

                              Recruiting and getting boosters to fund your recruiting is part of coaching. Kevin Young is a better college basketball coach. Now, if you did switch the rosters of course Alex Jensen would win both games. It is a semi pro roster against a high school roster.
