Any school that averages a legit 30k+ should be included

CaliWG

30 k isn’t enough. It might have to be 50k

Nat Gas Man

That would only include about 40 programs

If a "conglomerate" is formed, you can be sure BYU will be in their sandbox.

This is a good point. BYU isn't what they were in the 80s and 90s, but

Sadly, I can believe the 64+ND part, but given our track record I'm expecting us to be left out or screw it up

Took it as just individual schools not whole conferences.

Seems unlikely someone would have a pulse on how each P5 feels about BYU
