Exactly what I thought when I read the post.
Utah's potential is directly tied with killing the BYU/Utah rivalry.

BYU is very different even than other religious schools

Religious requirements are not the same as academics.

The lack of academic freedom is academic, and the way BYU is run

I'll give you a slight advantage in academics, with the med school, and research

I see as much research coming out of BYU as I do Utah, med school excepted.

Most educational conversations are about graduate schools

Convince me that science grad programs at the U put out more research.

Per Pac12, a researcher that prays is not really a researcher.

Those figures are from 2009. Utah's research budget is now north of $430 million

Right. When given the choice, always go with the Yes man.

Again, researchers and students who pray really aren't academic at all.
