I was addressing the waiting issue not the opponent

It’s clear he didn’t just start talking to teams this last weekend. He has been adding teams since the season started. I’m not sure why anyone would think that he isn’t exploring any reasonable opportunity.

Holmoe deserves a lot credit for redoing the schedule, but he blew it by waiting

I have to think irons were already in the fire, it’s not like TH is just now

We could have had a game this week though to stop the bleeding a bit

rggee

Instead we'll drop to 16 next week before (,hopefully) playing Cincy

rggee

11/24/20 9:14pm

Yep he overplayed his hand

rggee

11/24/20 9:14pm

Please. What more could he have done?

All-American

Scheduled a P5 game this weekend. Or signed a game with Cincy.

11/24/20 9:17pm

What P5 game? PAC ain’t happening with their late start and stupid rules.

dtownCoug

Any P5 game. Teams have been canceling games right and left.

rggee

11/24/20 9:18pm

What P5 conferences are even allowing OOC games?

But they still have to agree to play.

You know those weren't options. UW was barely an option – everyone knew that.

Benfica1

11/24/20 9:18pm

It was never a viable option

dtownCoug

Geez. You’re like that guy last night that thought all we had to do was ask for$

Not waited? Get a ranked G5 team on the schedule when there was still time?

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:17pm

It was, and I’m trying to be totally fair to you, a really stupid point.

All-American

11/24/20 9:20pm

Well, that settles it. You going to actually offer any reasoning?

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:30pm

I think it may be hard to find a meaningful opponent now. Who wants to line up

NacoCoug

How did he blow it? You literally are assuming so much.

LyleLanley

11/24/20 9:17pm

He said he wanted to wait until the initial CFP rankings were released to

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:22pm

What did you want him to do? He can’t snap his fingers and have a game lined up

LyleLanley

11/24/20 9:24pm

Tom Holmoe himself said they’ve had opportunities:

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:29pm

That doesn’t mean cincy

LyleLanley

11/24/20 9:32pm

I know. But a month ago, there was time to shuffle the schedule to get even a

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:38pm

Again, you have no proof that they didn't try.

If that is a direct quote, then share the quote.

fattycoug

11/24/20 9:49pm

He said it on Saturday on byutv

rggee

11/24/20 9:59pm

Show me the quote, please

fattycoug

11/24/20 10:06pm

Start around minute 43:

Since we are all acting like we know what TH was doing all this time

Except BYU chose to wait to see the CFP rankings. Source:

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:28pm

My point is BYU shouldn’t have waited to see the initial CFP rankings to gauge

ldssdl

11/24/20 9:31pm

You said you had a "direct quote". Now you have a "sources say"

fattycoug

11/24/20 9:51pm

Yeah, waited as in the last week maybe but I for one believe he was working all

SayMyName

They were negotiating with UW yesterday. That’s not waiting for the rankings.

Blue Cat

11/24/20 9:33pm

I’m not talking about UW at all. No one thought the PAC12 would play OOC games

Who should BYU have already played and how do you know they didn't try?
