9:30 a.m. Saturday: Citing sources close to Kalani Sitake, the Deseret News is reporting this morning that the Oregon State defensive coordinator is set to be named BYU head coach. The report notes that the hire has not been confirmed by BYU officials, but by Sitake's "family, friends and former teammates." It says an announcement could come as early as Saturday. SI.com is reporting the hire will happen "barring unforeseen issues." The Salt Lake Tribune reports Sitake "will become" BYU coach.

The Oregonian/OregonLive's Gina Mizell spoke to OSU coach Gary Andersen, who said as of Saturday morning he had not been told of Sitake's hiring.

As of 5 min ago, Oregon State coach Gary Andersen had not been told Sitake/BYU is done. "Trust me, I want it done so I can move forward." — Gina Mizell (@ginamizell) December 19, 2015

More Andersen, still frustrated with how long BYU/Sitake has drawn out: "If this whole process was a book it would be a joke book." — Gina Mizell (@ginamizell) December 19, 2015

7:40 p.m. Friday: All was quiet on the Kalani Sitake watch on Friday. With BYU set to take on rival Utah on Saturday in the Las Vegas Bowl, perhaps the Cougars' coaching search is on hold for another day or two.

4:10 p.m. Thursday update: Latest update from The Salt Lake Tribune's Jay Drew, focused on the Gary Andersen quotes from his colleague we referenced late this morning.

11:55 a.m. update: More Gary Andersen quotes about Sitake, via Matthew Piper of The Salt Lake Tribune:

11 a.m. Thursday update: Dave McCann of Salt Lake City's KSL-TV posted a blurry photo Thursday morning that he says is Kalani Sitake in Salt Lake City.

6:30 p.m. update: The Salt Lake Tribune is reporting that BYU has turned its attention to Oregon State defensive coordinator Kalani Sitake to fill its head coaching vacancy. And they confirm that Sitake has interviewed in person. More from BYU beat writer Jay Drew:

5:25 p.m. update: Multiple media outlets -- including ESPN and the Washington Post -- are reporting that Navy head coach Ken Niumatalolo has turned down the BYU job. That means Kalani Sitake is likely the leading candidate. Stay tuned.

#NavyFootball Coach NiumataloIo: "Nothing against BYU. They have a great program. I just think ultimately this is where I'm supposed to be." — Gene Wang (@gene_wang) December 17, 2015

Earlier updates: The Kalani Sitake to BYU rumor mill is heating up.

The Football Scoop is reporting that BYU has offered its head coaching job to Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo. If he turns the job down, it's reportedly Sitake's to take:

Jay Drew, the BYU football beat writer for the Salt Lake Tribune, thinks Niumatalolo will likely make a decision Wednesday.

Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo's agent tells me he (agent) will talk to me later today, which tells me a decision will likely be made today. — Jay Drew (@drewjay) December 16, 2015

Beavers head coach Gary Andersen and his staff held a JC Signing Day press conference that wrapped up just before 2 p.m. Sitake was not at the press conference. When asked if he was aware of any interviews regarding Sitake, Andersen said "I'm leaving that one alone."

Gina Mizell is posting live updates from Corvallis and continues to follow the Sitake situation.

Asked GA about Sitake/BYU at press conference. Said entire staff is intact as of today, would support Sitake if that opp presented itself. — Gina Mizell (@ginamizell) December 16, 2015

If Sitake leaves for BYU it will obviously have a significant impact on recruiting. Andrew Nemec is posting live recruiting updates all day and following the OSU situation closely, including Handsome Tanielu's decision.

This would be bad for Beavers recruiting. Sitake a key factor for multiple commits. https://t.co/lzfM75o6zT — Andrew Nemec (@AndrewNemec) December 16, 2015

We'll continue to follow the BYU coaching search and Sitake updates throughout the day. Stay tuned to this post for the latest information.

If Sitake leaves Oregon State, who do you want to see as the next defensive coordinator?
