Intervention Needed
If OU and UT are truly gone, BYU is the first invitation. They don't have a
Conference buyout. I'd then poach the AAC, because they are your biggest competition for relevancy.

Worrying about a buyout would be very short sighted. I doubt that’s any sort of an advantage.

Sunday play the bigger issue, but I tend to agree with the conclusion that BYU

Sunday play is an issue for, like, women’s tennis. I think they work it out.

Start with Men's B-Ball and go from there.

So you think it’s a dealbreaker? Those Sunday afternoon tv ratings?

Possibly...

No, money is in football, and thats never on sundays. No other tv ratings matter

Sunday play is the biggest reason BYU won’t get an invite

But why? I’m serious. Nobody plays football on Sunday. Basketball

Yes it is all the other Nonfootball sports that make no Sunday play a huge issue
