Tough to say. I’m guessing a bunch of these kids who were recruited by P5s

The Dude Abides The royal we.

probably would have chosen a P5 over playing in the MWC. Just my assumption though.

In a nutshell - the advantages of MWC vs Independence

But has Recruiting really gotten better?

I agree it hasn't gotten better as Indy. I think it would be worse in MWC.

No, but it hasn't gotten worse, regardless of what the recruiting services might say.

I think you have a point but potential to be vastly better comes with Indy

Attendance has gotten worse. Don’t know how you could argue that

National attendance is also trending down

You think it would be better if we only had UNLV, UNM, NMSU, and SJSU?

No dog in this fight, but I do think familiarity and conference title chase drives more attendance

Not with an MWC schedule.

MWC games aren't turning that tide back. Upcoming schedules can though.

Total revenue is great, but when you truly look at our Football revenue we aren't much better than some of the top G5s.

Show me a G5 program that comes close to BYU's unsubsidized football revenue

Jesse Pinkman

Since everyone is subsidized how am I supposed to show that to you?

Subsidies matter a ton when measuring the depth of support for a program

Jesse Pinkman

Intuitively I get that, but it doesn't really matter. That is the playing field, regardless of how the $$$ comes in.

Neither one is ideal. BYU’s biggest problem is not being in a P5 conference,

GatorCoug

11/20/19 10:56am

What is the biggest problem then? Or are you saying it is the problem?

JmThms

11/20/19 11:29am

Sorry. BYU's biggest problem is that they are not in a P5 conference.

GatorCoug

Yes. Agreed.

Other disadvantages of MWC

"Half of the MWC vehemently hates us.". This one.

Access to NY6 Bowl is a red herring. How often would we win the MWC right now?
