How close did we get with the BIG 12?

I know what TH has to say on this, but he has to play these things close to the vest. So what is the reality? Did we overplay our hand with the BIG 12? Did we get cold feet when the conference looked weak? Did it never even get to the point of serious consideration? Does anyone really know what happened?

Got the "B" and almost the "I" but it fell apart. Not close to the "G" or "12".

We played Texas. That's about it.

As close as we wanted to be...it was in BYU's control to close the deal

Would you buy a home if your inspector said it was going to fall down soon?

Yes, because at least you are in the gated community...easy to build a new house

BYU essentially outsmarted themselves and overthought the process.....

Please describe a scenario in which the Big12 accepts a full member that will

BYU over played their hand because they could, B12 was weak then, B12 is strong

Multiple credible sources have told me we blew it.

It was entirely in BYU's control. They pushed too hard. B12 went elsewhere.

It seems likely. Insiders on the BYU side of the fence who aren't talking about
