I'm not sure it's all that hard to understand.

Some people have bought into the Big 12 as a possibility for an invite b/c there is a decent possibility that the Big 12 expands soon. There is almost no hope that the PAC 12 expands any time soon. Plus, they already passed BYU over for Utah in the same TV market.

I think the PAC 12 is a much better option (includes our rival, closer geography, way better destinations), but even though I don't think the Big 12 offers BYU a spot, it's still a more realistic possibility for an invite than the PAC 12 from all indications--at least in the near future.

Is the BIG 12 the answer or would the PAC 12 be a better option?

I would say 95% of fans would say the PAC 12 is a better option

Because it is the best scenario that has any chance of happening.

Hmm... not sure if a serious response would actually help your understanding.

I would love to be in the PAC16, but it's not happening. We're not a good fit.

BYU is an excellent fit for the PAC 16.

It is indeed a foolish comment. We all know that.

The point is that not everybody in the Pac12 feels that way. If the Pac12 ever

Why do some of us insist that we're not a good fit? To all but a couple Pac12

Pac12 is better, but it's not an option
