A WCC league tourney in Vegas seems pointless this year

Let's just get a bunch of P5 ADs in the room and pick the tournament participant

In this crazy year BYU has fewer remaining threats than the other bubble teams

Or maybe let a 12-16 game season decide.

You never bet on Bennett having no shot. And USF could take us out

That's not the point. Neither of them could be better representatives

I hear ya, but I'd want the games. We likely get a bye

I'd hold off on counting chickens

Plus, I don't want to drop another 3 grand to watch us lose to St Mary's

ESPN pays relative peanuts.

They should just do a final four. At the most, 6

Pick Gonzaga, as a Tourney makes no sense. That way a team doesn't get upset

I hear you...but disagree

Unpopular view but I always preferred no conference turny.

Just start vaccinating all the players, coaches, et al now. Not rocket science.

Going into the NCAA tournament with 2 weeks not playing games seems

Just play a full 18 game conference schedule and skip the touny.

I think that would hurt our resume more. In fact BYU’s Net Rank might have

I don’t think BYU is anywhere near a stamped ticket but agree it’s all risk.

While I like the tourney, not playing this season would give the conference

In a year like this I agree
