After Lane Kiffin left Ole Miss to go to LSU, sources say Penn State offered $100 million to Kalani at BYU to leave. BYU Nation did not take this lightly. You see, you saw the founder of Crumbl, Nutracost, and people are alluding others came together to give him an awesome pay package to stay at BYU. We got Provo Dave in full force. All he's posting about right now is BYU. He's part of the Cougar Nation. Provo Dave all day. RG3 can't stop talking about BYU. I mean, BYU is on the map. Should be in the college football playoffs 6 Number 6 strength of schedule. Most wins over teams with winning record. Better strength of schedule than Ole Miss, Notre Dame, and Miami. Looks like Kalani is staying at BYU. Well done, Cougar Nation. But I love this post. This just summarizes things so well from Mr. Dave Portnoy here. I arrived in Provo as a young man with Fox, not knowing what to expect. I was overwhelmed with all the love I received from Cougar Nation. From Cosmo to Kalani, it was all love. From the ice cream to the dirty soda to the weird guy at the pizza shop, it was all love. Coach Sataki dances his way into my heart. There is no place like Provo, and Provo can't exist without BYU football, and BYU football can't exist without Kalani, and neither can Provo Dave. Stay Kalani, stay. Well said, Provo Dave. I— the fan base, the people converted to the specialness of the BYU Cougars. We've been beaten down. It's been a tough go. We're left out of the college football playoff. We have to go now, go beat a Potential national title contender, which was our only loss. Texas Tech. We have to go beat them on Saturday for a even chance to even be considered. I'm just kidding. We'd have a clear path in, but it feels like it just even a shot at being considered at the college ball playoff. We got Dave. We got RG three on our side. We got Kalani staying. Good day for BYU football. Well done, founder of Crumble Nutricost. All the other cool CEOs and founders here in Utah, man. Keeping us together. We got to keep BYU football going. Well done.
