Jay Hill / Fesi Sitake
Jay is the Weber state HC, while Fesi is the OC. Jay might be a long shot as he’s well respected and could have other offers. Fesi is problematic as he’s Kalani’s cousin, and if you thought CB was insane lately, if Fesi is named OC they would explode.
Jay was STC and coached several different positions from RB, TE, CB while he was at utah over 12 years. Over the last 4 years, his teams have gone 2-10, 6-5, 7-5, 10-2. Given his time at Utah, it makes sense that a lot of his stuff looks like a lot of their stuff. Without knowing exactly how they call plays and organize things, it’s hard to describe the theory of the system and how they think. Not a ton of game film is posted either.
Fesi was WR coach and passing game coordinator at SUU before going to Weber with Jay.
No idea if either can be described as a player/system coach. Jay has a masters in sports psychology for what it’s worth. Given Jay and Fesi run things somewhat similar to what BYU was trying to do and what Utah has done successfully in the past, there’s a good chance Kalani views them favorably. Also, he coached with Jay at Utah.
This is the offensive cut-up from the Weber Cal game. without knowing a ton about the individual make up of Weber state, I can only cautiously say I like the play calling. The execution is pretty good other than the blockers are clearly over-matched in pass blocking but the run blocking is decent and some good technique.
They go from double TE play action pass from under center I formation to speed options with the QB. Granted, Cal isn’t a great team, but they are a clear step above Weber in recruiting. Honestly, Weber might have won this game if not for 2 bizzare fumbles and a PI no call. Also, these guys might have a few players I’d be interested in stealing…

This was a fun watch. Trick play around the 11:30 mark for the touch down is a cool design.
This next one shows is a short highlight and shows some good play calling, particularly on 3 sequential 2 point conversion plays that was good manipulation.
