I might be alone in this, but I'd rather there be no football than this

Kinda selfish of you.

Probably, but my reasoning isn't about spoiling it for everyone but rather not

Crazy talk. I'd watch our team play in the Big Sky rather than not play at all

This. I cant stand a whole year of no sports. Call it bread and circus, but

BYU made their bed in being Independent... no need to hope all suffers because BYU is the dang fool

What was foolish about it? BYU's first ESPN contract was bigger than the MWC's conference TV contract post BYU/Utah.

At least there's a path for a NY6 bowl. I'm not saying I want to go back, but

I really wish everyone else would recognize this. Even if BYU went 11-1 or 10-2

No, that would be joining a non P5

Which we are neither right now... no mans land. At least there is land in the G5...

However, it is still a road!

The AAC has an open spot right now... and our TV contract with with ESPN wasn't massively different...

Coug

I'd take the AAC, if they would also invite Boise, SDSU, and Gonzaga.

I'd trade California to be able to play in Texas and the occasional Florida games.

Coug

Oh yeah... we had 1 shot at the BIGXII... by all accounts we backed away from it...

Coug

"By all accounts we backed away." That statement right there hurts the credibility of your position significantly.

Agree. Nobody could've predicted the devastation of Covid-19 on this season.

how many major programs would fold after just one year of no revenue?

Cougarclaw

None

Croweater

Many would be in deep trouble and would not recover

7/14/20 2:13pm

If there is no football, there likely will be no basketball too

Doesn't feel like a real, organized, competitive event. More just a way to

Here's what I hope

Snipe

for BYU's sake I agree. This would make BYU's status look even weaker.

Oh yeah- it’s the only option now. I’m cheering for Utah’s schedule to burn
