Michigan announced it first, earlier today
but you are right, we should have waited until after BYU's media day and let the local media catch wind of it through the Detroit newspapers.

And you are right, how dare we continue to recruit players that have already committed verbally to other programs, thereby attempting to compromise their integrity. We should ignore the fact that this is standard practice because we should be held to a higher standard due to the fact that we are BYU's rival. We should also ignore all instances where BYU has continued to recruit players that have already verbally committed to Utah.

Finally, regarding the continued statements from Chris Hill about conference affiliation, we should also ignore the fact that Michigan's announcement (that was clearly timed to interfere with BYU because Michigan and how dare they not pay due respect to BYU's "Media Day") ALSO announced that Michigan would be playing Colorado and Oregon State, and that Michigan's athletic director stated a few weeks ago that these games were being scheduled to get a jump on the Pac 12- Big 10 scheduling alliance. You are right, Chris Hill's statement was clearly designed to slight BYU's decision to be an independent in football.

Anything else that you feel needs to be addressed?
