Biggest Obstables to BYU Inclusion in B12 = Sunday Play & Geography

Mormonism

This is probably the biggest obstacle.

Which is Sunday play. If we weren't Mormon we'd play on Sunday.

Mormonism is a much larger hurdle than Sunday play.

Yeah but that's the easy way to avoid us and have a clear conscience

You can say that about inclusion of BYU in ANY conference yet....

But we were the big dogs. We brought in the money.

BYU would be a "big dog" in the Big 12 as far as revenue is concerned

Actually, WCC had Sunday play before BYU came in. They changed the policy

You're making my point for me

docrick

But his point is that it is not a valid concern. It's just a pride thing.

Sunday play was never a problem for the WAC, MWC and WCC but suddenly it's a huge problem for the Big12?

Almost none. The Sunday scheduling issues are almost all for olympic sports

The WBB tournament takes place on a Sunday. That's pretty substantial.

All 12 spectators will get over it and be OK with a Sat championship.

erodcoug

If only those 12 spectators made the big decisions.

BYU was the big fish in the little pond in the WAC and MWC. WCC was hppy to oblige to get BYU in the conference.

It's just a pride thing then. It's not a legitimate concern.

It's like inviting yourself to dinner and giving the hosts a laundry list of all your food allergies.

Except, in this case, your house guest really just wants to decline being

I don't see it that way. I see it as something the MWC and WAC were willing to

biggest the conference, bigger the Sunday play issue is (more $$ at stake)

Hill4Heisman

FB only is not done by any other major conference

Harrison0Yfan

Not unless you travel like they do in the B12...

Sunday play would only affect Olympic sports. Biggest issue is our location for

we should probably explain that we are thinking about moving to Missouri

Sorry, Sunday play is a non-issue. MOVE ON.

TrueBlue67

2/11/16 11:38am

Not an issue for who?

Polecat

2/11/16 12:01pm

I agree. It is very easy to schedule a women's softball game on a Saturday.

Thrill

2/11/16 12:09pm

You realize it would only take a couple Big12 presidents/ADs to care about scheduling issues related to no-Sunday play

CalGTR

Maybe it's time to move to Jackson County.

Sunday Play no issue

In YOUR mind, it shouldn't be an issue, but it is one of the main reasons

In YOUR mind, it IS an issue

BYU I Bleed Blue

2/11/16 2:16pm

If only it were just in MY mind. There is plenty of talk

Why is travel such a big deal. Theoretically increased travel costs
