CBS News last night in San Diego reported on the BYU UW situation. They stated..

.. that BYU had a chance to play UW, but backed out. They ended the 10 second clip by asking if that should impact their CFP ratings for playoff consideration.

Very unfair reporting to frame it in that way. They didn't mention the slanted contract terms and the lose lose situation. (Likely to lose the game and lose substantial money by playing).

Its BYUs own fault. If they don’t want to get beat up in the media then they

Problem is confidentiality clauses... which there assuredly is for these

I get that. But BYU can come out swinging without violating any confidentiality.

and then what happens if we make the P12 mad and they won't schedule games with us in the future?

Which is the position TH takes for sure, no need to make enemies over

Clause in what? There is no contract.

I have said it before - BYU under Holmoe is reactive and not proactive

This. It's also a BYU problem. Our PR department has been terrible for decades.

They have certainly been letting others drive this (badly slanted) narrative

11/24/20 8:45am

No offense to him. It seems we are not leading, only being cautious. Boldness!

That’s what I said...said I wish holmoe would have been more direct...but I got

This is exactly why Tom needed to go on the offensive. Squash the negativity.

Isn't BYU already playing SDSU?

11/24/20 8:39am

I think he means this week. Not sure SDSU would agree to that though

Well supposedly Brady Hoke has publicly stated they want to play someone this

I'm all for it! Let's make it happen

In San Diego the story should be BYU turned down UW to play SDSU, to free up

I would venture to say that the potential for SDSU to have more favorable

11/24/20 9:07am

This is why I thought we could have been a little more direct in our statement

11/24/20 9:38am

Yes, that’s really our only way out of this....

I like Wilson's take. We should've scheduled UW in.

BYU can make this all go away by landing a big December game
