If only we had signed up to be on standby over a holiday week to (maybe) play UW, we could have instead been re-routed to play Colorado with one day to prepare AND travel.

Dang, Holmoe really botched that one.

Well it does if you factor in confirmation bias.

Yes, really. Read it again slowly and just the words that are written. Don't go inferring more than what's there

You make valid points but when you are independent and have no access

Because we’ve beat-up a cupcake schedule.

Are all the statements you say 100% facts or are they hearsay?

Did she leave out the 48 hour cancellation clause?

That was a given. It was a public announcement. BYU

But, we didn't know if CU was going to be available. It could as likely been we played nobody after expending time,

On Mon it was reported BYU & Utah game prepped for UW. UW game prepped for Utah.

Cause she's only telling the part of the story that doesn't reflect poorly on her/UW.

So funny that he ignores that, why would she report anything that makes UW look

I have a lot of respect for you. If you read all of her quotes I’m surprised
