Here’s the big question, BYU had nothing lined up for this weekend. Why not accept UW? Testing protocols? It was a miss.

We did. That’s why we practiced on Monday. To get ready to play UW.

We didn’t though.We know BYU balked at the requirements. Either way though, it’s a monopoly and wouldn’t have made a dif

There was no game being offered.

We did though. We had an agreement and UW backed out.

B/c everyone knew Utah would be playing them. No $$ to pay for added testing, travel expenses & there would never

Soupie,it still doesn’t totally add up. What’s with TH saying “we want to wait until Tuesday”to make a decision about UW

Dr MoBYU

He didn’t say that. Just a bad rumor by someone at UW. If he was waiting on anything it was to see if UT/ASU would go.

Idk.Looks like lots of people have strong opinions.Not a lot of actual facts out there.Both sides stories don’t add up

Think you’re believing a narrative that’s just not there.

Soupie

11/24/20 11:44pm

That’s the thing, there’s a lot of buy-in on this thread of a conspiracy theory that Pac12 did an premeditated smear job

Dr MoBYU

No BYU thought they had the game that’s why the called players back to campus

That’s one way to look at it. I just don’t see a conspiracy. I think it was a leak. And I think they called the players

Dr MoBYU

They were in talks. There was enough chance of playing to warrant practicing.

This article is what I was talking about.I criticized Tom for not seeing the value of just accepting it when you don’t

I cannot read a sealed article.

Everyman quotes it.

Don’t see a smear campaign by UW. Just the PAC with idiot criteria they knew no one

Soupie

11/25/20 12:12am

National media think it was a smear job too

Again. On Monday, we were getting ready for UW. UW was getting ready for Utah.

We tried to. Washington's offer wasn't real.

A miss for a game that was never going to happen?

braddahmike

11/24/20 11:16pm

BYU was working on an agreement that wouldn’t leave BYU high and dry

We didn’t actually have the chance to schedule them. We had at best the chance

Have you not read anything about this?

YOU'RE NOT LISTENING. It was a burn-burn proposition.

Unibro

11/24/20 11:23pm

It was nothing more than a smear plan by the pac 12. They’ve been planning it

A Drew Aitch

11/24/20 11:30pm

Yup, hope they burn in hades
