Point 1 makes the most sense

Good info. Thanks

On point 5, what areas of benefit that aren’t football? cultural exchange?

Florwood

8/1/20 10:14am

Probably have to play some road basketball games in exchange. I wouldn't mind.

3. We won’t break our contracts for existing games. 4. Iowa state.

I think you’re right on both. The MWC needs to announce conference only

If they do, I hope Boise tells Hair to jam it.

I was thinking Iowa State too. What is their deal? How did a school in Iowa...

Trent

I always forget ISU is in the big 12. What a joke of a school

I forget there is an Iowa State, let alone it enjoys P5 status.

The real reason their students fussed about BYU last time is because we are 100x

Rocketman

8/1/20 8:57pm

Fortunately for us, no one cares about ISU and they probably have little

HONOMO

Not Iowa State. TCU likes us less than ISU

3. Overplaying our hand, as usual; 4. TCU

How? How did/ could we over play our hand?

Thanks for the info. Keep it coming. Ignore the haters.

“Ignore the haters”? You mean people who might see a vague post and naturally have questions about the claims?

Zach Morris

8/1/20 10:54am

Idk if you have any sources or not but I could give a crap about clarifying

SL12

8/1/20 11:05am

Burn your sources? On CB of all places? What does this even mean?

Zach Morris

8/1/20 11:10am

Because everyone at BYU and Utah look at CB

Please don't give a crap... Just keep your crap to yourself

Right so if football isn’t in then they could work.

Utah has two “fueling stations” on campus...

Any other schools have this as well?

They had a little bit of a dust up at Hawaii a week ago over this stuff also...

CoachSpeak

8/3/20 10:02am

They’re on scholarship, they don’t have jobs, it’s how they pay bills.

CoachSpeak

8/1/20 12:33pm

Lol. So, in this scenario, they are not practicing, and

In short yes. Agreements were made. Simple as that.

Dude vague rumors aren’t nearly as fun.

We also underestimate ESPN’s incentives

On #4, I will say it since you won't. Iowa State is our biggest issue.

Just curious as to the reason why?

I think your correct. TCU was really mad when we went independent.

I appreciate you posting your opinion or the opinion of your friend but this has all the hallmarks of the many phony

Zach Morris

Baylor causing trouble again.

8/1/20 11:23am

Wouldn’t surprise me if BYU insisted on keeping commitments to the crappiest

AZcougLawyer

8/1/20 11:58am

BYU should keep its word. If nothing else, the university should walk the talk

Forzaitalia

8/1/20 12:44pm

Keep their word by writing the check agreed to in the contract.

AZcougLawyer

8/1/20 12:47pm

Did not mean to cause angst toward any school. Speculation here is not correct.

My guess is Iowa st. Or TCU. Maybe Baylor.

Oklahoma?

They'd be my guess. They'd be one of the 2 single votes that mattered.

Perhaps WVU doesn’t wanna come west

CaliWG

Then they should take the West out of their state's name.

We are playing Baylor next year, so relations can’t be THAT bad.
