You are the king of out of context

It’s just like you point to all of Utah’s ratings against Oregon, USC, UCLA, and talk about how great the ratings are, when in reality when they play the other members of their conference, they have the worst ratings of anyone in the conference.

I agree NIL money is a big factor for now. I predict it will start drying up.

Or rather, NOT notice.

I think he's trying hard not to say anything definite until the deal is offered.

The AZ president is playing both sides. He has a big incentive to do so. I do

That's because he's going to the Big-14, no lies detected

There are legal and practical reasons why, even if you were heavily leaning on leaving, you would not publicly state

Are you certain they don't have a preliminary agreement in place? No other obligations? That would be unusual
