I don’t understand why in the world anyone would embrace G5. It is a certain

What if it’s a G5 conf that is virtually guaranteed a NY6 bid every year?

Show me the money. Can’t be less or

G5 Certain death. Backwater. Irrelevance.

Cause going 12-13 vs. G5 in Indy and having our worst results in our modern era

Agree. Dump Kalani and Tuiaki

Correct. And it’s not even close.

A certain what? You are trying to make a point without making a point.

If they play nice with our TV broadcast assets. Plus 2025 flexibility to leave.

If you had a job offer from a company that offered you a third of your salary but also required more out of pocket

Most of what BYU makes comes from sponsors and private donations.... that won’t change...

We are making much more tv money than the AAC. Even the low end guesses about BYU’s contract are much more

YIsForBrigham

8/14/20 9:11pm

Much more? No... it’s within a million at most...

Coug

So you’ll just make stuff up and stick to a definitive opinion over that?

YIsForBrigham

You accuse me of making stuff up and you start with a guess?

Making stuff up is different than educated guesses published by sports media correspondents

Ok... I was wrong however...

Not as many. No G5 school plays as many as we do. The most any G5 school has ever played is 3 and that’s extremely rare

And to remind you, this was at a time that MWC schools were getting a little over $1mil TOTAL per year from

Yes. Gets us better access to an NY6.

5-7 P5 games vs access to 1. Hmmm, let me think.....

Not enough flexibly as part of a conference for that to be possible most years.

GatorCoug

8/14/20 9:38pm

The NY6 doesn’t have a contract with us. They have a contract to take the highest rated G5 (not us). We could sneak

And I’m glad we’re not G5 so can live with it.
