For TNT it is

if accurate, they still view BYU as too many cons and not enough pros.

BYU is so far ahead of everyone else when it comes to qualifications.

I randomly had breakfast this morning with four employees from BYU's AD

Just TNT's negative opinion, but 50-50 is not encouraging

TNT

8/23/16 9:56am

And yet, it is not discouraging either.

Depends on how you look at it.

TNT

Or it is 50-50 whether they expand at all, and that is still the issue.

Turnpike Lane

8/23/16 10:03am

Good point

TNT

8/23/16 10:11am

This is just what they are told the should say when asked IMO

I'm guessing that's just a standard way of saying "no comment" It doesn't mean

THIS

Wasn't there a receiver several years ago with the "50-50" nickname?

Don't matter if the cup is 1/2 empty or full. Both are heavy if you hold it long

BluebloodOR

8/23/16 12:12pm

well Jimmy, since their answer obviously means nothing, don't worry about it

Kerbouchard

8/23/16 3:10pm

My guess is that most AD employees have no idea what's going on.

benny1982

8/23/16 9:58am

I agree

Yurdue

8/23/16 9:58am

U shoulda said, "I'm compliance director and thank you for complying with the 50/50 rule.

Crowgar

8/23/16 11:06am

If you are under NDA, 50-50 is the ONLY answer

Rhino84

^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^

runningryan

8/23/16 10:11am

Totally. The fact they all were in unison makes me think that is the party line

StalwartBraveTrue

8/23/16 10:40am

Indeed

ZooBlue

8/23/16 2:41pm

Sounds like that's the party line, just say "50-50!"

mellomike

8/23/16 9:58am

It's actually the only answer that is neither negative nor positive.

BamaCoug

8/23/16 9:58am

They were prepped, which is why they all answered simeutaneously

Twin Roots

8/23/16 10:31am

exactly, I can't believe people don't get this

Kerbouchard

8/23/16 3:11pm

This sounds made up, and that last sentence....SMH.

cougarnerd

8/23/16 9:58am

yes indeed, it does.

smokymountainrain

8/23/16 10:01am

We should all put BYU to the big12 on the prayer rolls.

blueaussie

8/23/16 10:09am

uhhhh, about that....

GJcougar

8/23/16 1:05pm

Did they all chuckle together after they said "50-50"?

Bubba Gravity

8/23/16 9:59am

It's gotta be at least 55-45

coolcats

8/23/16 10:00am

How can you randomly have breakfast with 4 people?

kimdaddy35

8/23/16 10:00am

Big Breakfast Menu at Denny's

TNT

8/23/16 10:02am

The university has a campus breakfast every August for all employees

Yurdue

8/23/16 10:03am

So it was planned and not random?

blueaussie

8/23/16 10:10am

He probably means he randomly sat next to them at the planned breakfast.

bretonnia

8/23/16 10:34am

The faculty networking event from 9am to 12pm at the Benson Building?

kimdaddy35

8/23/16 10:11am

So they're not fasting and praying....just praying?

Magic8Ball

8/23/16 10:03am

Now we know why we aren't in yet. Step it up, AD employees!

JackStack

8/23/16 10:07am

Did they all say "JYNX! You owe me a soda!" at the same time?

Bgash

8/23/16 10:09am

They seriously asked for prayers? Sports isn't really on the eternal agenda

MajorZeus

8/23/16 10:12am

Has anyone ever simply asked, "Are you under NDA?"

Hoosier Cougar

8/23/16 10:16am

There might be a separate NDA covering the NDA though.

Ojiisan

8/23/16 10:21am

Oooo...NDA-ception!

Hoosier Cougar

8/23/16 10:26am

Actually...

OyajiCoug

8/23/16 10:57am

wow that's confidential

Only the 10 big 12 presidents know who will get an invite

coolcats

Did you hear them laughing maniacally as you walked away?

okieboy

8/23/16 11:02am

When is university conference? When do they vote on changes to the HC?

StalwartBraveTrue

8/23/16 11:19am

Your best shot at a real answer is to take only one of them to lunch

How would you put that down on the prayer roll?

HangookCoug

8/23/16 1:09pm

I'll put this in my prayers, right after I pray for the Broncos to win another..

CrimsonCardinal

8/23/16 1:12pm

If only we really knew what He cares about.

StalwartBraveTrue

8/23/16 2:11pm

Bad excuse not to pray. Sports prayers make up 62.1% of prayers on Sat/Sun.

CrimsonCardinal

8/23/16 5:23pm

Never met a bad excuse I couldn't get behind.

StalwartBraveTrue

8/23/16 9:59pm

"50-50" especially in unison, sounds like a pre-planned, NDA, company line. BUT...

mvtoro

8/23/16 2:07pm

Did y'all go to BYU? They pray about everything up there. Why would this

StalwartBraveTrue

8/23/16 2:12pm

I did, and I'm even still adjunct faculty there every few semesters. And yes, you're encouraged to pray over...
