Be interesting to see how this opinions changes after the new indie deal is done

BYU is just finishing up paying the price to make Indy work very well. And

I don’t disagree with you, but what specific “leg work” and “price”

The leg work is in scheduling and TV negotiations. It's taken a while for BYU

The price was agreeing to H/H with everyone insisting we play away first.

Some PAC teams are coming here first

Plus they’ve seen that we struggle mightily in these games so that should help scheduling them in the future

I think adding Boise to the AAC makes it clearly a better conference.

If no other option is available, join the AAC and have a Western Division with

Yall are crazy. I think a deal like ND has with ACC, where we schedule some

Agreed, Scheduling agreement with AAC with Boise State should be an option

I definitely like AAC for bball, but in the current state of CFB, its P5 >> indy

Convince AAC to expand with Boise, SDSU and two others; then sign ND-like deal

Well said. This would be a great option.

No conference will take your olympic sports without football.

Except that a conference did, but ok

A conference that doesn't sponsor football so it wasn't an issue.

I don’t see even broaching this for another 3 years. To much happening between now and then.
