Make your sales pitch to the Board of Trustees why a change from Indy to G5 is the right one

money is gonna go down as an indy. fanbase apathy will be reflected

It won't go down going back to playing Wyoming and New Mexico??
nephicoug

it will. but i'm saying that we can't sit here and say that indy is going to
johnnycarson

Wyoming and New Mexico are better than Idaho and Umass

Every year since 2017, anyway.

well, 1-6 this year. but 1-4 the next couple.

To be really effective, you can't just make the claim, you must provide evidence

Do you feel indy is a recruiting advantage over being in a G5? Curious if

Utah has soundly beaten BYU in recruiting since independence.

BYU is caught between a rock and a hard place. There is no great option.

dude, just schedule a lighter and win games.

It is true, BYU teams with 10 wins always finished ranked, even with super weak

Less money and less exposure, but the bottom line--winning games--might increase
84 Grad
10/12/17 9:47am
Then jumping to FCS would really boost the bottom line!
Sea Chicken

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who has seen the light.

we'll be able to go back to showing the games in stake centers

IMO, exposure argument is w-e-a-k.
CosmoK
10/12/17 9:54am
our revenue has gone up substantially as an indy, yet this is possibly the worst
johnnycarson
10/12/17 9:56am
You'd also have to address why making a drastic change based on one bad season
Indy Coug
10/12/17 9:57am
true. but by 2020 it'll be 4 bad seasons.

Abe Froman
10/12/17 10:10am
1 bad season? You can argue every year in Indy has been bad (meaningless) except
TheLoneCougar
10/12/17 12:15pm
LOL!!!! If all these seasons have really been that meaningless, then it's time for a new school
Indy Coug
10/12/17 12:33pm
Sorry, you'll have to forcefully remove me from the season tickets we've had
TheLoneCougar
10/12/17 12:41pm
This is so short sighted
Dissenter
10/12/17 1:26pm
Short sighted?
TheLoneCougar

CFB has changed since the WAC and the MWC. It will never be the same going back

Did I ever say I wanted it to go back?

IMO you can't determine how good this team is yet. If all you're worried about
ManicBlue

It may be weak, but it is definitely one of the cornerstones of Independence that got the BOT on board
Indy Coug
10/12/17 9:56am
Broadcast landscape has entirely changed since then.
CosmoK
10/12/17 9:58am
How many ESPN/ABC games have Cincinnati, SDSU, and Memphis each had this year?
84 Grad
10/12/17 9:58am
I have no idea. I showed # for BYU and BSU once. Nearly identical.
CosmoK
10/12/17 10:02am
So you made a post without knowing if your assertion is correct. Trust me, it's
84 Grad
10/12/17 10:03am
Feel free to prove me wrong.

Just look it up and you'll see that you're wrong.

Yeah, but 84 Coug says you're wrong, soo. . . .
CosmoK
10/12/17 6:27pm
No, CosmoK, once again you are wrong. I live in Boise so I know how much BSU
84 Grad
10/12/17 7:08pm
Who cares Cinncinnatti, Memphis, etc.
Cougtruth
10/12/17 8:32pm
I agree. I only brought it up because of this comparison:
84 Grad
10/12/17 8:55pm
I wouldn't even try to make that argument. It's stupid.
ManicBlue
10/12/17 9:59am
As a BYU fan the only stat I care about each year is how much money we made. W-L
kolob32
10/12/17 10:00am
And that's how you convince the BOT to make a change?
Indy Coug
10/12/17 10:11am
Yeah, I guess it does sound pretty dumb now that I think about it.
kolob32
10/12/17 10:13am
Being independent is hurting our brand. Our fans are becoming apathetic because
cougtrain
10/12/17 10:04am
Unfortunately the pro Indy crowd can't see this or are too prideful to admit it.
kolob32
10/12/17 10:10am
It's denial. We're disappointed too, but we've progressed on to acceptance.
Gil Buckman
10/12/17 10:19am
The P5 is never going to want us we need to accept that and we’re not better
franklyvulgar
10/12/17 10:33am
I agree with alot of what you're saying. However, I think we still have a shot
kolob32
10/12/17 10:48am
Agree relevance is top 25 rankings which doesn’t seem possible as Indy
franklyvulgar
10/12/17 11:03am
Great minds think alike. I just don't see how people on here can't understand

Mine is not based on losing. I had same issue last year with a winning record.

When would you consider BYU's most recent "successful" season?

Oh please. The fans are apathetic because this team sucks.

*Sucking at football* is hurting our brand and would hurt it in any situation.

You make a good point. What is important to BOT and what is important to fans
Gil Buckman
10/12/17 10:05am
My sales pitch is simple...Your commitment to the programs success is at a G5 level, quit pretending it is anything else
Bonoman
10/12/17 10:09am
This would be my 1st point in the pitch.
TheLoneCougar
10/12/17 12:24pm
One bad year and it's time to go back? I'd say the chat is premature.

It's already done through 2022.
Turnpike Lane

Independence makes sense for the casual fan that just cares about exposure,

Someday it may make sense

We’ve had 7 years of boring seasons. This isn’t about one really bad year.

It's not. I guess I lose.

The "missionary" aspect of the program and brand name suffers when we are bad.
