If one side proposed something acceptable to the other, game over. The fact that they're dragging on forever even under pressure from stakeholders to wrap them up, and with the background of some of those stakeholders being poached, means to me the pac is not happy with anything from media partners.

And perhaps they're exploring something creative, but with the cost of capital so high and the stakes of dragging this on so long so high, my money is on the PAC having a distaste for the crow in the humble pie they're going to have to eat with this humble pie.

My guess is that part of the reason Harlan is so desperately going on a media blitz is, in addition to seeing his only p5 option probably going down in flames, yewts cannot accept anything inferior to BYU after running their gums that they're certified superior after inclusion in the PAC
