up football than going back to the MWC. Especially if the G5 P5 split is complete. That's basically to me, BYU willingly dropping down to FCS right now in the future. It's an interesting idea, and is a possible short term improvement, but overall that's BYU symbolically throwing in the towel. No thanks! Makes me wonder how many fans on average the Ivy League schools lost when they basically gave up competing in football.
