Why are we not members of a P5 Conference? Did we do it to ourselves, or...

Are you being serious right now?

And yet Utah is a P5 team.

Geography was our biggest issue until recently...

It is hard to tell if you are serious

Why is it hard to tell?

Yes of course. WE would join the Big 12 in a nano-second

Because you've been a member of the board for more than 3 years and you are

TrueAndBlue

9/14/14 7:14pm

Probably all of these reasons.

I would say coverage is about 50/50 on that. Half are dinging our SOS

TrueAndBlue

BYU has the strong argument that we haven't dodged anybody

Archaea

9/14/14 7:39pm

Well it had been vigorously discussed and lamented. It is a rather sore spot

Archaea

9/14/14 7:37pm

So you've been in a coma? Glad you're feeling better.

It would be nice if I could start a real discussion about this.

EndOfTheGame

9/14/14 7:02pm

CB is not a place for serious discussion.

The Lone Wolf

So far, that seems about right. Unfortunately.

This question has a trollish smell.

Please tell me what P5 program invited us?!

Archaea

9/14/14 7:05pm

The question is, why didn't they?

AxelDC

9/14/14 11:27pm

Since no one else's answer works for you, why do you think?

Thanks Archaea. I appreciate the info.

I think it has been answered

This isn't going to be a popular response, it's because the mainstream public

Didn't make it to a BCS game when that was still the system used to determine

Not correct to believe anything on the field got those teams invited

BYUFam1

9/14/14 8:39pm

I hate Utah, I really do. But even then I'm not fool enough to try & say that

BYU6thFan

9/14/14 8:48pm

OK - how many did the following teams go to before being invited?

BYUFam1

9/14/14 9:09pm

Our policies toward gay professors and students will keep us out

"Even if they are married." As if that changes anything

TrueAndBlue

9/14/14 11:11pm

So married couples are a joke?

AxelDC

9/14/14 11:32pm

? Gay marriage is not a thing in the Church's eyes. "Even if they're married"

TrueAndBlue

9/14/14 11:53pm

I disagree. It absolutely has meaning.

If you are speaking from a liberal University President's perspective then

TrueAndBlue

I agree. I don't think the BOT will change their position.
