Before he asks Dan the question about BYU fans on social media, he says "I never ask a question I don't already know the answer to".

Meaning, he knew exactly what he was doing asking Dan that question. He knew Dan had just written an article about Taysom Hill and that people were questioning the fact that Taysom is the strongest guy on the team. (Something Gunther started bTW)

Therefore, PK is a troll who was purposely trying to get a rise out of BYU fans.
