Stopped at a hole-in-the wall BBQ in Knoxville today on way to airport
I’m wearing my BYU shirt. Owner starts to bemoan the number of highly touted athletes and high paid coaches, yet they are 0-2. Then he starts going off on how much “we paid those teams.” Apparently GA St got $950k. “I don’t know what we paid BYU, but I know we have to pay to get smaller schools to come play us.”

I paused. I explained it was a home-and-home and that UT will one day be in Provo. Shock!

I left it there (food hadn’t been served 😬) and spared him the grief of knowing BYU has more students.

A fun end to an amazing trip
