I’m not saying BYU would be The Best. But saying BYU is a great place to focus and prepare, that better than saying “We a really good G5 with an Honor Code!”

If BYU's goal is a National Championship, the AAC and MWC isn't the way to go.

Unfortunately, a power conference is still the only good option. I would

Nothing BYU has done the last 10 years shows they can compete nationally

Indy is working way better than G5 would be. New playoff format may change the

BYU recruiting has tanked in the last 10 years as an Independent

You out yourself as a Ute when you make comments like this.

That's just factual - BYUs recruiting rank has gone WAY down in the last decade

krindorr

6/11/21 1:41pm

Team rankings are a horrible way to look at recruiting for teams outside the top

bluescholar

You keep telling me I'm wrong, but keep providing zero evidence to back that up

As long as we have the honor code we will never recruit National

There is a type of national player that would choose a place like BYU..

But it’s your son’s choice. Not yours.

BYU doesnt stat relevant or respected in indy if we dont take an opportunity

If you honestly think that BYU stands a better chance of winning a NC as an Independent...

Their chances of winning a title are probably actually pretty similar in

Third...and most important of all, BYU needs to recruit a whole heck of a lot

Diablo and Doc

And this isn't happening as a member of the AAC or MWC.

SLIVER

6/11/21 11:54am

You're chances of getting into the playoffs as a member of the AAC increase significantly...

So your dream season for BYU is breezing through a G5 schedule and getting

SLIVER

And your dream season is to play games that virtually mean nothing... get left out and play in the Independence Bowl?

What's your realistic dream season for BYU football?

BYU's recruiting tanked when they went Independent....

krindorr

No, it didn't, at all.

Yes, it did. Data included

There is so much more to recruiting than looking at team rankings. If you don't

If you're using draft picks as evidence, BYU produced more in MWC days...

14 of those 22 were recruited in the 90's, so unless you're ignoring that I said

I do agree Kalani is better than Bronco

krindorr

6/11/21 4:19pm

Yep, which is mostly Bronco having a hard time getting non-Crowton recruits

Let’s get real. BYU is not winning a national championship. Getting the “6th”

We want exposure and fan access; the expanded AAC gets us that...not the MWC
