They say that nonsense but there’s not a single shred of evidence to support that. They will almost always respond referencing some article where Benson reached out to the UNLV AD (who he was longtime friends with) to put feelers out to see if they’d be interested in joining the WAC as support. 1. Benson isn't BYU and 2. I bet those conversations happen all the time, especially during that time - how do you think Nebraska ended up in the BigTen?
Show me one single credible piece of evidence to support that and I’ll take their fairytale more seriously.
