MORE BREAKING: BYU Coach Kalani Sitake Buys $39M Georgia Ranch for Ultimate Outdoor Playground: “I Wanted a Place to Wakesurf, Hunt and Build a Racetrack with My Family”
In a jaw-dropping real estate move turning heads across the college football world, BYU head coach Kalani Sitake has reportedly purchased a sprawling $39 million ranch estate in Georgia, calling it his “ultimate outdoor playground.” The massive acquisition includes acres of private land, several lakes, custom lodges, and enough room to live out what Sitake calls his dream lifestyle.
“I wanted a place where I could wakesurf with my kids, hunt wild game, and maybe even build a racetrack,” Sitake said in an exclusive interview. “Coaching is intense—it never stops. But this is where I get to unplug, breathe, and just be with my family.”
Sources say the property, located just outside Atlanta, spans more than 700 acres and features a custom-designed lakefront lodge, ATV trails, a private airstrip, and plans for a personal racetrack in development. The ranch will double as a private getaway and potential team retreat location in the offseason.
The news has created a buzz in both the real estate and college sports worlds, with fans reacting to the coach’s bold lifestyle move. Some see it as a sign of success and balance in a high-pressure profession, while others question the timing given BYU’s recent internal team challenges and player suspensions.
Still, Sitake remains focused: “This doesn’t change who I am or what we’re building at BYU. It just gives me a place to recharge so I can give my best back to the team.”
With BYU preparing for a pivotal season in the Big 12, Sitake’s new sanctuary might just be the calm before—or after—the storm.
