Amidst the increasing chatter that BYU Cougars head football coach Kalani Sitake’s job could be on the line, a prominent national writer weighed in on Sitake’s future earlier this week.
On Tuesday, Yahoo’s Pete Thamel published a rather lengthy list of coaches around the country who could be on the hot seat, and Sitake was included.
“He went 7-6 and won a bowl last season, but the injuries and a difficult closing schedule make this job worth monitoring as the year closes,” Thamel wrote. “The athletic department also faces an existential identity crisis, as independence has been a difficult journey in terms of sustaining relevancy.”
