Perhaps

But it does seem the enthusiasm from public facing leaders at BYU are paint by the numbers.

I know that BYU "higher ups" have flirted with just shutting it all down since Crowtons debacle.

College athletics are expensive and the associated scandals and problems really probably make admins wonder if its worth it.

To eventually shut it down?

No, but the athletics market will eventually push BYU out

It’s embarassing to lose any coach to UVU.

UVU has more to offer than people here think...

7/21/18 12:32pm

Don’t confuse thinking a school is irrelevant with contempt. Very different things.

So, then, you are saying UVU is irrelevant?

I like UVU.

Army has a lot more leeway with Title IX because they don't give athletic scholarships, right?

Opposite. Everyone is on scholarship. But, yea. Similar outcome.
