Go to the movies. Have a snickers. Life is good.

Maybe you are right. Low expectations and apathy will help

“Shift in priorities “is a better way to phrase it.

You make your own success. AD failed! Utah and TCU made the right moves and BYU

IMO it all started with independence. We need to get on a real conference.

Email Holmoe. He probably hasn’t thought of that.

Perhaps we might consider trying to be the best in the WCC first.

That’s too hard and will take too long...

You don't have to be Top 15 to be in a P5 conference. You do have to be Top 15

Unfortunately, I think the intention of the BOT is to eventually step out of collegiate sports entirely.

Blue Print

Hope not. That would drive more isolation and further limit common connectivity

The church isn’t going to let the NCAA drive our school policies.

Maybe they drop down to D2

I think the opposite.

I would much prefer that I be wrong.

I think you grossly underestimate the importance of a sports program

BYU sports is the only reason I live in Provo and the only reason I donate $$$.

Then why invest $$ in this offensive staff?

RWaters

Why are we running FOS campaigns?

Blue Print

2/17/18 8:53pm

The Indy/WCC arrangement is helping achieve those ends.

That's been said for 30+ years now...

Oh wow. Let us all embrace our cult. I guess.

It's a very dark time for BYU sports right now. I agree.

You need a halftime adjustment of your panties.

Can you say that on CB?

TNT

It’s great advice. Just trying to help him out.

blackandblue

2/17/18 9:05pm

Give him a break. Only posts about 10 times a year. Could be worse.

CougarThug

There’s some truth to what you’re saying.

TrappistF

2/17/18 9:50pm

If the decline is irreversible why are you asking what can be done about it?

Bullrider

2/17/18 11:06pm

It's not that hard if you allow several contexts to be read into it.

Both football and BB ranked in the 100s. Complete administration failure...

The people at BYU who are allowed to try something are working hard at it.
