BYU should ABSOLUTELY join the AAC. It's the right fit, it's the right time...

Or MWC. Independence is a sinking ship.

BYU will never go back to the MWC

Agree on the sinking ship part. Indy, MWC, and AAC both end up in the same place

Same for those who think Indy = relevance. Dead horse.

There's a right time to cancel 20+ P5/G5 games and incur $10MM+ in penalties? Cool.

Yup. There sure is. There's a right time to do a lot of things that hurt

$20 million dollars will be worthless in 10 years? What sort of hyperinflation

GhostofPostersPast

We will not play 3 P5 games a year if we join a G5. It will not happen.

YIsForBrigham

10/19/17 12:16pm

And if we join a G5 who cares if we play any P5 schools?

YIsForBrigham

10/19/17 12:18pm

We always cared before, I don't see why we would stop.

Polecat

10/19/17 2:03pm

Different world. And if we are going back to g5 we are admitting we can’t handle it. May as well just pad our ego

YIsForBrigham

10/19/17 2:25pm

It's a fundamental difference of perspective... I don't see Indy with 8-7 games

10/19/17 2:38pm

Sure but those of you that continue to say that Indy schedules are just a G5 schedule with 3 P5 games are ignoring our

Can't handle what? BYU is not in a P5 and is not going to be. Independence is

Polecat

10/19/17 2:54pm

Independence is as close to P5 as BYU can get in college football without being

GhostofPostersPast

10/19/17 2:56pm

The thing is it's still not very close, and BYU fans are the only people who

Depends on your definition of close

We just went 3-3 against P5 last year. 3 losses were by mere points. Combined.

MarylandFan

1-13 against winning P5 teams.

You're right, BYU can't handle it. If you enjoy being ARMY and UMASS you're in

10/19/17 3:10pm

If that’s the case, then let’s be sure to not schedule any P5 teams

YIsForBrigham

10/19/17 3:12pm

We already start the year with 3 P5s

SaintGeorgeYFan

10/19/17 4:03pm

And that won’t happen in a G5. No G5 does that. No G5 has ever done that.

YIsForBrigham

10/19/17 9:25pm

So? Just because no one ever has - big deal? 8 conf games leaves 4 open

46in96

10/19/17 9:28pm

It won’t happen because it can’t. You don’t have enough flexibility to make it happen.

YIsForBrigham

10/19/17 9:59pm

Have we not started the season with 3 straight P5s before? Before said P5s start

You can be 'dumber' or 'more dumb', but you can't be "much dumber".

Your #2 and #3 are possible and not mutually exclusive with joining AAC now, but
