BYU normally avoids home games on conference Saturday. They will play road games during conference weekend. I remember President Hinkley once cutting his conference talk short so that everyone could leave to watch BYU lose to San Diego State.

Didn't Pres Hinckley once give a score update at the beginning of Priesthood

And he released Priesthood session early one year (against SDSU, I believe)

Non-issue for BYU. DVR, internet, etc., all make that moot point.

Not an issue. We prefer to play on Friday, but have done it many times

Is it not high maintenance to request home games at specific times on that Sat.?

Station42

11/25/15 10:03am

No, that's not unusual at all. Now, if we were demanding it, that might be

NOCAL_YFAN

11/25/15 10:06am

Is there any reason it would have to be a home game?

AZcougLawyer

no such policy

hxmCougar2000

11/25/15 10:00am

Then why are games on Friday evenings?

Station42

11/25/15 10:01am

Convenience. They've been able to manage it. If the B12 schedule had us playing

MantiCoug

11/25/15 10:03am

Because that's when they were scheduled?

If we have a say on it, then that's what we prefer.

Alister Mackenzie

11/25/15 10:03am

Ok, no policy, but can't preferences also be deemed high maintenance?

Station42

11/25/15 10:06am

if it's high maintenance it's a demand.

molodyets

11/25/15 10:08am

Just because you like something doesn't make you high maintenance?

ESPN loves to put us on Friday

BYU has played that Saturday night in the past. They just won't play a home game that night and would push for an 8:15

I would love for bball to someday play during April GC Priesthood session.

There is a good chance priesthood session would be rescheduled to Sunday if that

NOCAL_YFAN

11/25/15 10:18am

I don't see that as an issue.
