I wish I could feel bad for the other Big 12 teams....

Agreed. Any support I have for them comes from a place of selfishness for BYU.

CaliWG

I mean... they all allowed OU and Texas to kind of do this to them...

So OU and UT think they are better than the rest of the Big 12....

OU and UT ARE better than the rest of the B12.

Classic case of battered college syndrome.

Weren't they all the ones who didn't want to expand in 2016 while OU & UT did?

Right call.

They had clauses in their contracts that payouts increased with expansion

Not sure why folks on here seem to take the side of Texas and OU in all of this.

Hill justified his arrogant, nasty posture towards BYU by claiming he was “doing what was best” for the U. What a tool.

BYU left the MWC to do what is best for BYU. Does that make Holmoe a tool?
