Why Kalani Sitake STAYED at BYU over Penn State: Building the Cougars into a Big 12 power

As Andy & Ari spent this week at Big 12 Media Days, the guys were able to catch up with BYU head coach Kalani Sitake in Frisco, Texas. Losing to Texas Tech a year ago in the Big 12 Championship, Sitake believes the Cougars are on the verge of a championship. Can BYU really capture a title? Kalani Sitake stayed at BYU because he believes the Cougars can. Watch here as Sitake explains why he wants to be similar to Texas Tech and why he chose to stay in Provo over a blue blood program.
