distance for Olympic sports will be a big deal that doesn't work in our favor and the SLC market is not exactly a huge target. Utah is not a recruiting hotbed, and dont' tell anyone, but most BYU fans don't drink when they visit opponents stadiums.

but then you have the other ones like we'd have a top 3 stadium in the Big 12, and a top 2 basketball arena, our NC puts us as one of 3 or 4 Big 12 schools (if you include Nebraska) not to mention the BYUtv truck which is such an asset to have and a bunch of other things.

I agree the metrics will be strongly in our favor, but it also depends on what you value. If one of the presidents decides that recruiting is the most important metrics, we may not do as well as we thought.
