A big problem with your analysis of that poll...

The 2nd option will never happen. That would be great if we could get the benefits of independence AND the benefits of a conference, but a G5 conference isn't coming close to what we have now anytime soon.

For those of you poo-pooing G5 affiliation: you're in the minority

Those who are in favor of that move need to take a long hard look at the

Wrong. The only time we've been on top was when Lavell was the coach

AvengingAngel

Are we looking at the same poll?

The issue is that most of your G5 votes are based on possible future scenarios

TaiJuan

9/20/17 5:03pm

I dunno man - looks to me that only 10 people actually voted for G-5 status

Not really. 1 option was heck no & others were variations of yes.

MWC come on BYU

tippmancoug

9/20/17 5:06pm

^^^This I can agree with. MWC is clearly a step backward and admitting defeat.

9/20/17 5:39pm

That poll didn't ask if you wanted to go back to G5, you interpreted the polls

Indy sucks compared to P5, but G5 sucks compared to Indy.

Look more closely at the results. Only 7 of the respondents said BYU should

That's not the point. The point is some concessions could make it work.

byujdmba

9/20/17 5:18pm

That's exactly the point. You are basing your conclusion on things that are not

84 Grad

9/20/17 5:30pm

I respectfully disagree. My point is it could happen.

byujdmba

9/20/17 5:37pm

In that case ask, "Would you want BYU to join a G5 conference if a P5 conference

84 Grad

9/20/17 5:44pm

Congrats! Poll officially Jimmered. Currently 58% heck no, 42% maybe.

Right now the never go G5 answer has 58%...

Well, thats one way to look at it.

A big problem with your analysis of that poll...

StantonMac

9/20/17 6:44pm

I'm actually surprised there is a decent size minority who think G5 would be ok.

Squire

9/20/17 7:14pm

Why do people think INDY is any but G5 with no conference. It's not P5? It's not

blackshirts

9/20/17 9:41pm

I agree and disagree with you. Our schedule the last couple of years is more

There are pros and cons for both arguments. I don't think we will ever go

Am I seeing a different poll? The overwhelming response is no G5.

Real Men Wear Blue

BYU left MWC for a reason, they knew what they were doing & could join any G5

You are reading your own poll wrong homie.

Bluedarts

9/20/17 8:41pm

Your poll is flawed. You have one option for no and a gazillion for yes in some form or another. Do a straight up:

Well, looks like the poll has turned anyway.

You suffer from premature calculation. Get help.

Unless it's the American conference, I dismiss it out of hand.

BYU has no interest in AAC. AAC has reached out.
