a completely different delivery within the next 2-3 years. The days of TV revenue will be a thing of the past as people move to a pay per team model. My son has a Lakers package subscription — only can watch certain Lakers games. He'd have gottent the NBA package, but it was too pricy. Soon there will be a team, conference or D1 package. Pay for what you want.
Indepences allows for BYU to be preceived as 'not G5'. It also allows for better games on the schedule. It isn't perfect, but complaining about it doesn't help BYU in any way.
