Sitake's deal does not expire after 2019 per Jay Drew

https://www.sltrib.com/sports/byu-cougars/2019/01/27/kalani-sitakes-byu/



Why hasn’t the school extended Sitake’s contract? The five-year deal he signed when he was hired in December of 2015 expires after the 2020 season.

...

BYU is a private institution and does not have to divulge terms of its coaching contracts like public schools do, but an athletic department spokesperson told The Salt Lake Tribune on Friday that Sitake is not entering the final year of his contract, contrary to what has been widely reported.



Through an intermediary, athletic director Tom Holmoe said Sitake is currently under contract and has more than one year remaining on it, but would offer no other details.

Eff........

TJ is that you????

The next thing we'll find out is that Sitake's contract has a no fire clause and it automatically gets extended by a year each time he wins a game.

The beautiful thing about this is that no one knows when it will expire and there is sufficient leverage on Sitake to keep that date quiet. So now we can stop seeing stupid articles on why BYU needs to extend the contract of Gary Crowton 2.0

Because you want the team to lose games so that your fantasy of Sitake getting fired actually happens? With fans like this who needs Utes....

I want Sitake to win every game and be here until he retires. Unfortunately, he isn't a good coach so the chances of that are pretty slim. I can't have him losing to Utah state anymore. That has to end next year. Plus it would be nice to be able to hold on to 20 point leads against the utes.

Found the person who actually wants contract renewals with 4 win seasons!



But seriously, just chill!

It is really fishy and weird that the details of Kalani's contract have mysteriously changed or never were accurately known over the years. I don't think this has ever happened before, even at BYU where the contracts are private and not public access. We all knew when Crowton's contract was up, we knew the status of Bronco's contracts, we knew Ty Detmer's. Why is Kalani's now suddenly different from what was originally reported?

Deep State. Obviously.

Either the collective internet knowledge isn't all its cracked up to be or Sitake has a deal with the devil. Or photos of Holmoe. I'm not sure which of the three is most likely.

Deal with the Devil? Satan is slipping.

I wonder if Kalani didn't get an extra year added to his contract when Grimes was brought on. It's the only scenario that really makes sense to me.

That's what I was thinking - and then I caught myself hoping that it was only one year added. (Then I decided that I didn't care if it was more than one year as long as I have the belief that Sitake will be let go if he doesn't improve this year irrespective of how long is left on the contract)

I don't know....Jay Drew says in that story that Sitake signed a 5 year deal in December of 2015. So that would run through December of 2020. He says nothing about added years part way through the deal.

He also said BYU signed him to a 4 year deal in 2015. So either he's been fed misinformation back then or now.
