who cares? Loyalty is one thing, but this is not loyalty. It is arrogance (or insecurity) and animosity toward anything affiliated with BYU.

Big mistake.

I think the yewts have rebuffed Yormark enough...

If they are available, they get in

You take that back!

Lol. Sorry. It’s true. I don’t like Utah, but they’d be in. Don’t hate me.

inertiaman

6/1/23 10:12pm

I don't know. Do they bring in enough extra TV viewers to make them worth it?

The rivalry game would be strong value.

inertiaman

6/1/23 10:22pm

Yeah, I just don't know if adding Utah to BYU already owning the market will bring a ton more viewers. Utah may be

It's so valuable that it gets relegated to the 8:15 MT TV slot in September.

Exactly, big time rivalry games are prime time games, not after dark games.

Probably more valuable as a cross-conference rivalry. Fans of

The U of U healthcare system is fantastic. Their athletic department and some of

Fantastic is overstating it by quite a bit. They’re pretty good

BYU '80

6/1/23 10:28pm

Not many (any?) healthcare systems in Utah are better.

BlooCoog

6/1/23 10:35pm

Don’t know about the entire system, but Huntsman is fantastic. No cancer center

Co, UofA, ASU, UConn for 16. The. 3 more eventually from ACC and Gonzaga

Nat Gas Man

6/1/23 10:06pm

I think the ACC is locked up until 2036. Would the entire conference dissolve?

BlueZone

6/1/23 10:08pm

Yes

B10: ND, Miami, UNC, UVA. Maybe Gtech. Duke. SEC: Clemson, FSU, Vtech, NC State

No they won’t be a power conference. I don’t even consider them a power

Tuskaloosa Cougar

I agree. That's what I think.

BlueZone

Great minds

to your question on if the Pac would still be a P5 conference ... no.

runnincoug

6/1/23 10:07pm

Exactly! My question was rhetorical. It should not be considered a Power Conf.

BlueZone

6/1/23 10:10pm

Not sure how they get knocked down from A5 status. Maybe because a conference

Utah's arrogance on this matter could cost them a lot of money, and status. But

i wouldn't worry about AQ. Let them have an AQ in new expanded playoff. BUT

You forgot BSU, but I agree with you

Do you think the pac will take Boise? I don't think so because of academic/

runnincoug

6/2/23 11:13am

Depends on how many teams the Pac loses

CameronG

6/2/23 11:22am

I don’t think Yormark cares what Ute fans say

GlutealGuy

6/1/23 10:12pm

Does Yormark care what Harlan has to say? We know Harlan doesn't want the Big 12

CameronG

6/2/23 9:16am

Colorados/ASU/AZ AD say they want to stay in the pac

GlutealGuy

6/2/23 10:44am

Colorado's AD in the last week said they are happy in the Pac but are going to

They have said, all things equal, they stay in the PAC; that SHOULD be their

Regarding "All things being equal,"

Yes, exactly, it's becoming obvious (to CB at least) that things will not be

Another question. When the utes end up on the outside, will Kyle retire or move?

BlueZone

6/1/23 10:12pm

He has Utah on the hook for a big new contract through 27 or 28.

jre85

6/1/23 11:36pm

Other than one tweet, how has Utah rebuffed Yormark?

Belboz

6/1/23 10:26pm

By not showing interest like CO and AZ. But who knows?

BlueZone

6/1/23 10:33pm

I think the public doesn't know and that was the crux of my question

Belboz

6/1/23 10:39pm

Considering there are reports of Colorado and Arizona's interest and none about

CameronG

6/2/23 9:26am

Is there evidence Utah was "offered?" Or Yormark gives a rip about yewt fans?

Brandoblueblood

6/1/23 11:39pm

Rebuffed Yormark, that's funny.

slatecoug

6/2/23 12:12am

I think Yormark's focusing on basketball schools. Bad time for Utah to stink...

The only thing that keeps Utah out

CougarCanuck76

6/2/23 5:46am

Is numbers. Utah isn’t additive to the B12 conference - it already has the state

Abe Froman

6/2/23 7:06am

I would argue there is one other thing that keeps Utah out

moknowssports

6/2/23 8:25am

Plus we don't want to give Utah $32M so we can get their $10M

Brandoblueblood

6/2/23 10:08am

BYU fans have been waiting so long to get accepted to the P5 world, despite being more than worthy, that they lose

TFL

6/2/23 10:58am

I think this is why being totally dominant in basketball matters.

BlueZone

6/2/23 11:28am

In any other power conference besides the PAC, maybe ACC, Utah doesn't finished ranked the last 2 years.
