BYU to be a P5 program and the BOT doesn't correct their VERY public statements, their lack of correction or clarification TH's comments is tacit approval of what TH says. So, no, the BOT has not come out and said "We want BYU to be in a P5 conference." But, don't tell me for a minute that TH gets to go off and spout things about the P5 without BOT approval of some kind. TH's predecessor, Rondo Felberg, did not hide his ambitions for BYU athletics and we all know what happened to him.
