Recruits. So, Indy recruiting is terrible. The 3stars are now jumping ship.

JUST FACTS. Blue goggles on!!!

USF, HOUSTON, CSU, UCF, BSU, SDST, etc... G5 and way better programs.

Curious why thats even relevant? Do coaches say "well, we aren't in a conference

It is pretty relevant. College kids don’t just get amped for

Exactly. We are at a big disadvantage and its our own fault.

It's clear there are many many pro conference fans, players, etc.

This is, without a doubt, the most absurd post I've ever seen on CB

Umm nope. This has plenty of logic in it.

Actually there's a lot of truth to it

You don't think players are excited? That's idiotic

Players are going to play

No truth in this. What team is out of the conference race at 0-2? With 7-8 left

Cougarfan777

10/11/17 8:08pm

However many games it is, I don't care. You should be motivated enough to play

cougaman

Helping other teams in the conference is motivation? LOL

Not just drage. The majority of former players want us to go back.

Vocal minority. Just like here on CB.

I'm going off the guys criddle interviews. I don't think it's a vocal minority.

It sounds pretty common for the former players to say they want back in a

It's time to go back.

Haha, what does Drage know? He’s only one of the best WRs to play at BYU

Run-DMT

10/11/17 7:59pm

CB knows more than majority of former players, coaches and ADs. Didn't you know?

Exactly. What does he know about running an AD and those realities?

I'm totally with Drage. I'd prefer AAC but MWC will do. BYU gave Indy a good

I was excited for Indy too. I had hope that it would let us negotiate p5

Can't go back....so stop pining.

BYUSwoop

10/12/17 9:18am

Id take the AAC easily. Id consider the MWC.

Turbine

10/11/17 8:05pm

He's right, as are most of the former players saying this

mosterlow

10/11/17 8:05pm

Absolutely, most former players get it.

Kalani gets it, too. We're 1-5, but it's okay cause he gets it.

Every former player I have spoken with thinks BYU should go back to a conferenc.

I spoke with Kehl about it after a fireside that he gave for our stake.

Vocal minority. Not even close to a majority. Those that know we will be independent through the tv rights upheaval

Refugee

10/11/17 8:49pm

Wrong. These games from Oct thru Nov still feel like exhibition games

Run-DMT

10/11/17 8:56pm

Aren't they all against MWC teams but one?

kooogar

10/11/17 10:03pm

And they would still be if we were in the MWC. You have no argument

Majority of former players want G5 irrelevance and far less money?

It's the truth. We are much better off being in a conference. Beyond obvious.

Joe Hardy

10/12/17 9:23am

Only to the vocal minority and only looking through the rearview mirror of how things once were in college football.

Refugee

10/12/17 10:23am

Yep

BYUSwoop

I totally agree with him. Our pride is all that is keeping us from the MWC.

They aren’t giving that money to me, so I don’t care about it. It’s not enough

cougtrain

10/11/17 10:24pm

The only reason why we can't go back now is that it signals we have given up.

Waiting this long to do something was very shortsighted

After Big 12 slammed the door in our face, I sadly agree.

I think you're right - but we have to know for sure before we leave indy IMO.

I can respect that opinion and I think it's the Hail Mary TH is holding onto.

Actually, no, I don't remember

CMuehle

Well, for one thing, we'd be completely out of the MWC race anyway....

CajunCoug for the win. Couldn't have said it better.

BYUSwoop

10/12/17 9:53pm

I've never wanted to be on the B-team. Seems Drage would rather play on the B-team. I'd rather lose to A-teams.

I agree with him. It's time to admit that Independence is a failed experiment.
