My friend who knows TH said there are so many rumors flying around he told me...

Tom Holme is NOT in Texas giving a selling pitch. And NO OFFER has been made from the b12. He said Tom thinks they will add only two schools but it will be first a travel partner for WV and then Houston. What this guy said only echoes what I was told. And he said Tom was only hopeful but it did not look good by the way it sounded to him. Only way BYU gets an invite is with 14 teams in the b12. There is a 30% chance of that happening.

Gunther just had a good interview with Brian Davis of Austin American Statesman.

He is guessing like everyone else is from the media.

7/26/16 5:51pm

I agree and think there is a bit of Texas bias in there.

He sounds uninformed. Too many old talking points.

It's funny that he wants BYU to make more noise, but then he criticizes them for

Not how I took it. He might be feeling like BYU is quiet because they feel smug

There is a reason Gunther had him on

NOBODY in Austin media ranks BYU in the top 2, at least not that I have heard..

Other than UT, who does the Austin media rank highly?

You're gonna stick to that until the very end aren't you yewt?

That's a downer

Been reading your past posts and you've been very consistent about big 12.

BringYourUltimate

7/26/16 10:30pm

If he's right, it's not because he knows anything. He doesn't want us to be in the Big 12 for some stupid reason...

7/26/16 11:52pm

So he has a little Machiavelli in him? I'm all for Big 12.

BringYourUltimate

hmm...You talk to TH, and he thinks BYU won't get in, and he told you that?

Lance71

7/26/16 10:30pm

TH said 30% chance huh? I find it hard to believe that he would even have

Kerbouchard

7/26/16 10:45pm

Just outed yourself. Troll. Your game is exposed.

7/26/16 11:13pm

Yeah, you just made that up. Tom is not talking to anyone, so you definitely made that up.

7/26/16 11:32pm

I sure hope you full of it.

I am not arguing with you guys on this. Just what I was told. Not made up.

digitalayon

Every post you've ever made has been a negative on this subject...

CoachSpeak

7/27/16 9:25am

sorry.....not a ute. I bleed blue! Not my fault if what I said is coming true.

digitalayon

You don't "know" anything...

CoachSpeak

7/27/16 10:40am

never said I did..just what someone told me and you didn't like it..deal with it

digitalayon

7/27/16 11:04am

Of course you're claiming "someone" told you....

CoachSpeak

7/27/16 11:51am

actually this is the first time I posted what I was told by someone..show me

digitalayon

7/27/16 12:45pm

I didn't say you've posted a claim to "sources" previously...

CoachSpeak

7/27/16 1:38pm

If BYU is not accepted because of religious bigotry and politics(like now)

digitalayon

7/27/16 2:07pm

Ok, those are valid points...

CoachSpeak

7/27/16 2:55pm

+1 Nailed it.

Ktar

7/27/16 6:19pm

OK, so you or your contact made it up. Tom's keeping quiet on this, he's not going to tell your friend anything....

7/27/16 9:34am

He's very high up....he's one that approves budgets for athletics along with TH

digitalayon

7/27/16 9:57am

Someone that would approve budgets wouldn't need to know right now, and wouldn't be told anything specific.

7/27/16 10:07am

ok....I will tell him you said so

digitalayon

7/27/16 11:05am

And since you have made it a crusade saying you don't want us in, what you say on the subject has to be questioned...

7/27/16 10:11am

Sorry if I have trust issues yet.....

digitalayon

7/27/16 11:12am

No one would believe you regardless of what you claimed....

CoachSpeak

7/27/16 11:52am

not asking them to believe....just stated what someone said

digitalayon

7/27/16 2:07pm

Isn't that the same guy who told Criddle last week that no way BYU gets in?

SoValleyCOUG

7/26/16 10:47pm

Yep

Adrielle

7/26/16 11:20pm

Wasn't Davis the tool who the day before the Big 12

Adrielle

7/26/16 10:51pm

Bigotry against the LDS church is still around. I'm afraid that may play a role.

SoValleyCOUG

7/26/16 11:15pm

It is possible, but Davis knows nothing

Adrielle

7/26/16 11:20pm

Probably have many evangelists calling in to the b12 office.

digitalayon

7/27/16 1:06am

This guy is probably still just mad we beat UT by 30 in back-to-back years
