I’ll disagree with this statement

He survived as a conference despite all of the defections by Utah (whom he couldn’t keep) tcu (whom he couldn’t keep) raid attempts by the big east of boise and San Diego state and the defection of byu whom wanted more than the mwc could offer.

All of this equates to a commissioner who was dealt a very crappy hand and despite that crappy hand exists when the WAC died.

I think he’s done well all things considered.

Any chance we can team up with Boise and join a conference?

Sure, but no real conference is interested in BYU and BSU

The P12 would make most sense

letthewookieewin

Neither did Utah.

That statement is so 1980s

Neither does BYU

The MWC is going to chase out their cash cow.

Hey now don’t give the Aggies too much credit

coolcats

They did that once already...

And people want BYU in the MWC

Cougar TD

Perfectly in character for MWC to want to gravy train off someone and not live

We could have had the same deal

Thankfully we thought better of that

I'm shocked, I tell you. Shocked!

The media rights dispute here is interesting and this thread deserves a better title.

The real story here is that Boise State releases statements using screenshots of Apple Notes

Funny Bsu thinks they have other options

they did the last time they jumped conferences

Only with a partner. Aac has changed a lot since then

BYU '80

1/17/20 8:10pm

The AAC is waiting.

1/17/20 7:05pm

There is an interesting argument here

1/17/20 7:44pm

Particularly if the AAC really gutted the MWC by

rocker

1/17/20 8:09pm

I believe the AAC would be more credible adding BYU, BSU and then

1/17/20 8:44pm

It matters not at all one lick who they add. AAC will be G5. They will never get

LiveCoug

I didn't say they would.

You don't know that.

LOL. Of course I know that.

Do you seriously think that the P5 cartel has any intention of letting the AAC

BYU is not merely Provo. Boise has a name brand... but is a more

1/17/20 11:51pm

I was just pointing out the geographical mismatch.

GatorCoug

1/18/20 1:08pm

I see. Yes, that is an issue.

1/18/20 5:51pm

quantity of teams in the conference is not going to increase the credibility

cwilke1

1/17/20 9:56pm

A good argument doesn't change anything though. There's not going to be P6.

Lance71

1/17/20 8:40pm

The title of P5 is written in stone. They won’t allow anyone to join.

1/17/20 9:24pm

I'm not claiming it will

1/17/20 10:20pm

It's tough to say that bringing more mouths to feed to the table is a good

Emmett Fitz-Hume

1/18/20 6:07am

Very shortsighted argument.

1/18/20 6:29pm

Is there any objective measurement to show that this is true?

What we call the Power Conferences, the NCAA indentifies them as

BYU is in a good spot right now. It's not perfect, but it's still good. They

Slow down sparky. How about we do better than 7-6 every year first

coldcoug

1/19/20 2:44pm

BYU will never go 12-0, 11-1, or 10-2 as an independent, especially not under KS

TrueBlue67

1/19/20 4:49pm

I wouldn't say 'never'. BYU 'never' should have won a NC either. Miracles happen

ManicBlue

1/19/20 5:14pm

Be an interesting legal dispute but the other schools should simply kick BSU out

rocker

1/17/20 7:24pm

Adding BYU, SDSU, and Gonzaga in Basketball makes for an amazing bball confernce

1/18/20 6:32pm

No thanks

Hair has done much more damage to that conference than good. The Presidents

If we take our stupid pills and decide to kill our program, yes

travelcoug

1/17/20 8:58pm

So, the MWC is treating BSU like they treated BYU. Thanks Hair.

Since we're 0 for the entire series on that turf, I can understand your angst.

AAC is the most forward thinking conference.

Big Time 55

1/17/20 11:44pm

We should have a secret clause that they require BSU to go green for environment

Rather than join the AAC, I'd be more interested to see if

ManicBlue

If you are talking P5, no. BYU is poison in today's society with all the SJW's.
