had no control over any of this and set up a great schedule this year. I would imagine he is doing anything and everything possible right now, and contacting every AD and every other possible resource he has to get a football schedule to replace lost games.

This is not on TH! Talking about BYU's supposed blown chances to get in the Big 12 is laughable. In personal discussion a few years ago Tom said, "You can't turn away from something that you are never offered, and you can't make demands when you aren't offered. We have never been offered by the Big 12!"

This whole scenario of only conference games is one more example of how the P5 conferences are trying to exclude the G5 and move away from any NCAA governance. They have to do the conference games so that they don't lose the major TV contracts. It is ALL about the money, and they simply can't afford to lose that!

You can be guaranteed that TH is scrambling to replace games in any way possible.
