Of late I've been thinking a lot about BYU's place in CFB

The admins are frugal, but in the case of football, it needs to be an investment

I agree, but what is the endgame with Independence?
CaliWG

If P5 comes calling, I'm answering. But independence can work too.

Exposure. National tv

In a conference they would play the lower teams & miss the major inter-sectional

I’m not necessarily talking about joining the AAC, maybe creating something new

It’s the only thing that bar P5 I think would be good- best of G5 split to new conference. See what the market brings.

There are really only so many ways to go about it that have a legit future
CaliWG
10/19/18 9:03am
First I don’t think it’s happening nor do I want to join G5 as constituted but having a few dog football programs isn’t

The 4 team CFP is in trouble
CaliWG

Pretty sure that won't ever happen

So are you basically asking if independence is good for BYU?

The major fault with your analysis...

The fact that they play in conferences with the likes of Wyoming & Tulane hurts
CaliWG
10/18/18 4:56pm
If they are serious and to maximize revenue the best of G5 needs to align for football and basketball
SouthernBlueBlood
10/18/18 5:05pm
Who would that include? just curious, I would have trouble finding enough teams
here's to hoping

First I’m not a fan of leaving INDY but if we did I would do the following

It would be hard to get down to 6-7 conf games. I don't think most schools

That division would make travel less of a pain, but the list of decent American

It’s a fun discussion. I never get bored of it

All that East Coast travel would wear on the team. Don’t think it turns out well

Playing for an AAC title may sound interesting, but only b/c we just lost to USU

When was the last time bowl access was an issue for BYU? 1984? Was it even then?

NY6 Bowl access is a valid point but I see that as fools gold...

That is the most logical argument for joining a G5 that I have ever heard.

I liked it until the 'join a conference of have-nots'.

I look at it a bit differently

Yeah, have less fans. Have you seen a full stadium at an AAC game?

I always shut down when the “BYU has nothing to play for” comment jumps out.

After the 1st or 2nd conference loss teams no longer have anything to play for

Lavell cared about conference championships, winning about 20 of them.

Once a G5, always a G5. Won't work. When you say BYU has nothing to play for,

I am a big indy supporter, but 'once a g5, always a g5' is objectively false

Just play good teams. We don't have to always win but always play exciting games

We do have something to play for. The quality of our bowl game is directly tied

This is only the case if the P5 conferences don't fill their allotments
CaliWG

Right. But all the conferences rarely fill all their bowls.
