I love listening to your podcast everyday - my son will play at byu when he returns from his mission and your podcast is my way of staying up on byu football. Funk recruited him, so we wish him well and appreciate his efforts to help us decide on byu. Highly interested in who will be the next o- line coach!!
The moment Baylor announced his release I hoped BYU would go after Grimes. If Roderick fails to put together a high level offense we know at least we’ve got coaches who can step in and prevent freefall like we saw this season.
Grimes is the right guy to bring back as long as lines of reporting are clear. For example, it's hard to hold the OC accountable for offensive success when the OL Coach reports to someone else--especially given their previous areas of responsibility. That said, and if Grimey is going to stay long enough to make it worthwhile, we can't ask for a better position coach and one who will enforce discipline on the offensive side of the ball. Gotta have that "loud coach" on each side of the ball. With Pay and others potentially coming back, I look for vastly improved OL play next year. More often than not, it's been technical errors that can be corrected.
If you are paying a million dollars for a player, this is no longer a sport I will follow. The level of greed in athletics is so disturbing. Jumping to the NFL draft does not mean you are in the NFL. So many examples. Most of the BYU/NFL pros says they wish they could have played one more year of football at BYU.
Contrary to Jake's comments, a massive improvement in the O-line is the top priority. A-Rod's play calling is sometimes inexplicable. If Grimes does come back, look for him to replace A-Rod at the end of next season.
Lastly, the mesh, the ability to get these moving parts to have game-time speed tempo, and timing is an Uphill struggle for every team. The Portal adds the same dilemma you see in the NFL, you bring in off-the-chart talent, but that does not translate into automatic success. Bring it on, this is what makes this game exciting and aggravating at the same moment.
If not Grimes, who else is out there that we might snag up? I love Jeff, and and I'm pretty surprised that he isn't moving to a head coaching job at this point. Tough go at Baylor recently. If he does migrate into the OC position, eventually, I think it would be an improvement...
It’s not going to be that difficult to get a portal qb, especially if you do have some cash. There are only so many p5 schools and only so many of those have an opening at qb. BYU won’t be seen as a top destination, however they are a p5 school with a legit opportunity for that qb to play, they’ve shown they’ll play a transfer, and that gives them a leg up. And I understand that Robbin’s and Martin showed some things, but that rushing attack was soooooo bad, I wouldn’t be upset with them bringing in a rb to compete for carries
Not that difficult to get a portal QB? Good luck with that one. Message sent last season to prospects is you will be blamed and benched for things out of your control.
I thought he was being named the UTEP Head Coach. What happened to that? That would be weird for him to come back & work under aRod who used to work under him.
I just looked up a report and UTEP is expecting to make a hire in the next 24 hours, and grimes was not one of the 5 people who have interviewed for it.
The BYU needs BIG's ASAP! Depth is the issue. Talented DEPTH on both sides of the line of scrimmage is PARAMOUNT! DB's to every position, come on depth across the board is critical, the injury bug-a-boo crippled this team's ability to compete.
Jake the BYU coaching staff needs to step up there coaching. The days of developing a player are becoming none existent. Look at Alabama for instance there quarterback is a true freshman along with receivers running backs linebackers etc. we need to throw these freshmen in the fire and go if we don't they'll hit the portal!!! BYU has got to learn that the tradition of building a team is over!!!
The Portal is Hot & Cold. The Portal brought in What? The standard of throwing MUD against the wall and seeing what sticks, IS NOT AN EFFECTIVE METHOD!
Easy solution BYU buys all third stringers from either Alabama Georgia or Michigan, BYU spends millions on them and no one else then BYU should be seeing wins. Just an idea.
I’d say they definitely need an upgrade at safety. Wakely and the others are decent but they should be the depth guys, not the starters. The safeties got roasted at times last season. They just didn’t have the requisite athleticism for what they were facing week in and week out.
I wish Baylor had a better season from an offensive line perspective. Then I would be much more confident than Jeff Grimes will be the solution Seems like Baylor and BYU had very similar seasons. Not sure Grimes is the answer Hopefully, Kalani knows what he’s doing.
Stop the ridiculous top 10 ranking talk for basketball until they prove it by beating a quality BIG 12 team. Grimes will have to do better than he has done in the past (Baylor and BYU without a great QB). If he can bring along a legitimate 4 star offensive lineman and help recruit other positions then maybe it will work.
The only thing ridiculous is your comment, if you look at the personnel the basketball team is going to have in their lineup there's nothing ridiculous whatsoever calling that a probable top 10 team.
@@aisaxonawiat6484 In case you couldnt tell, this video and my comment about it is about BYU football. My commnent in fact was referencing Coach Grimes potentially comeing back to coach offensive line at BYU which we know now didnt happen. Best of luck to you.
@@aisaxonawiat6484 Look at the timeing of my comment. It was well before Pope left BYU and Coach Young was hired. With that being the case my comment is very applicable (hardly the ridiculous statement you described) as is my point made about Grimes and BYU football.
@@outsideview9052 .... come on man just let it go, the more you talk now the more foolish you look because your words are right there.... you may have finished off talking about football but it was clear you were talking about basketball in the beginning.... you got to be on Cougarboard.... that board is filled with so many hypocrites, BYU should distance itself from it.... Let It Go and move on, you said what you said. Yeah you probably did make those statements before Kevin young came, but don't try to say you weren't talking about basketball, just say that it was a different timeline and that's all that needs to be said.
Why not 'Head Coach'? It's plain and clear, BYU need to make that jump to the next level. With a new head coach, that would make it happen. Coach Grimes would be the guy. Go Cougs.
@@LibertarianUSA1982 you make the same comment over and over and over. We get it, you don’t like sitake…but he’s not getting canned because thankfully Holmoe has a brain, get over it.
I hope Grimes comes back. The line and the offense hasnt been the same since he left.

Football carries the day until it doesn’t. Plenty of time for basketball once they get into conference play.
Great job covering both!
Grimes is the best choice for BYU. Hopefully, he'll come back and stay 🙏
I don’t remember Jeff making so many questionable play calls like we endured all this year with ARod.
I say have Grimes coach the O-line and TE’s and bring in a dedicated QB coach.

2 must haves for BYU from the portal:
Nate Johnson, QB (Utah)
Carson Ryan, TE (UCLA)
Great idea. Go get em BYU
That would be an amazing hire!!! Please demote A-Rod and have Grimes call the plays???? Please Please Please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.....
Perfect, Grimes will be a HUGE repair! Bring Him Back!!!!
1. O line and d line
2. QB
3. All around depth.
I hear rumor sione vaki from Utah may be jumping in the portal. He would be an amazing get for a depleted linebacker room… *IF* rumors are true..
Good move in the right direction. O line and play calling needs help.
This transfer portal ends early January, what are the dates for the spring transfer portal?

What does arguably Bronco’s best team (2006) and arguably Kalani’s best team (2020) have in common? Jeff Grimes was over the OL. Bring him home!

Seems Grimes would be good back at BYU!
Any news
DJ Uiagalelei is in the transfer portal.

Seems like Baylor and BYU had very similar seasons.
Not sure Grimes is the answer Hopefully, Kalani knows what he’s doing.
If they had had a better season then Grimes wouldn’t have been fired and therefore would not have been available.

Target Arch Manning. Find a way to take him out of Austin. Maybe he will be the answer to BYU's weak QB problem.
