BYUers conveniently leave out any facts that don't help our cause? Like what?

Geography? Maybe some wariness of BYU's religious affiliation? Other than that though, there's really no reason to leave out BYU, and even then, those reasons are weak compared to the reasons why a conference would expand in the first place.

But maybe not if they are considering "Geographic partner package deals"

I think the fact you manage to crunch all these numbers speaks highly of prof. success not the opposite.

They talk a lot about how there are talks of merging Cincy & Dayton TV markets

Oh and the considerations of merging the DMA into one...

One thing to keep in mind about TV markets and Cinci: if they were playing

Many of those homes already will tune in to watch OU or Texas play who ever is

I don't get the problem - Provo, UT has some impressive geography...

None that really matter for inclusion into a conference though.

Come on, I haven't seen anything from BamaCoug that was untrue, but he avoids

Which data are you talking about? Not sure what he is missing

Dr T-bone

5/27/16 8:18am

And I'm sure if someone came up with a category that could be sourced...

UConn and Cinci people say I ignored current NFL players and BCS bowl wins...

BamaCoug

5/27/16 9:42am

NFL players is somewhat irrelevant. Seems their own bias is showing

Since 30 may be challenged as random let's use specific important NCAA dates

Oh really? Give us some examples then chief?

What data would you like to see him include. Genuinely curious.

I'm genuinely curious what he's inferring with "Wonder where they learned...

I'm guessing refers to LDS reluctance to address negatives in our past

Realistically...does anyone promote their weaknesses??? Does Cincy promote that

ol' Blue Eyes

5/27/16 8:10am

Remember when Cincy highlighted their brawl with Xavier in their media relations

I took it as a dig on our missionaries / the church

byujdmba

I think he is referring to their own statistics promoting Cinci.

TAMUCoug

5/27/16 8:32am

He has plenty of stats that show BYU as not #1

BYUFam1

5/27/16 8:39am

Maybe we ought to come up with some oddball statistical categories that are

Travel feasibility by steam/paddle wheel boat - Cincy & Memphis win for sure

Oh yeah? There's no such thing as Cincinnati fry sauce....

I think he's obliquely referring to 'cognitive dissonance' in a religious sense

Yes, a Mormon dig probably referring to our misguided youth donning black name

It's just Cinci fans sounding off because they're fans.
