I agree that the P12 is much better for us. I guess I'm just trying to say that

even though indy has its problems it is a much better option for us than staying in the MWC would have been, even with the top-ranked G5 getting into a NY6. Our schedules can improve and we'll slowly gain respect as playing stronger schedules than any G5.

Right decision, but unsustainable

I think it probably IS sustainable.

So you disagree with Bronco when he said indy wasn't viable long term?

Zak

It is sustainable if we WIN, and win often

Strange argument.

$$$ as Indy will jump dramatically when current ESPN contract expires

Yes it will especially since espn is hurting financially and losing viewership

If our two options are MWC or unsustainable Indy, why would BYU not ask 4 more $

Bgash

BYU can ask for whatever it wants

shakarocks

8/3/15 10:22am

FOX, CBS, and NBC will bid - depends on B1G contract

What happens if BYU struggles?

BYU has a high floor in terms of viewership (especially at 7-5)

This is true. Now way we get that status if we're in the MWC.

They are cost cutting. Not turning down opportunities. BYU is an opportunity.

Look at the stands becoming more empty. BYU has to become relevant or ....

I'd be happy to take my chances in an instable B12. At worst, B12 blows up

Haha, agreed. Then chances of us going undefeated are unfortunately small!

Do our CFP chances really increase as part of an Autonomy 5 conference?

boscatar
