I didn't know anything about their school when I moved to this state almost 40 years ago. They TAUGHT me to despise their fans and their school through their bad manners, dishonesty and lies. I most sincerely wish we would never play them again in any sport and could completely ignore their existence. It disgusted me that the Big XII let them join the conference, and their attitude since then has been to sneer that they did the Big XII a favor by coming. It certainly didn't take them long to wear out their welcome in this conference either, as the rest of the conference now sees them for being the obnoxious lot they are.
I cannot see any benefit to BYU from having any association with those people in any way, shape or form. The sooner BYU can cut off any dealings with them whatsoever, the better for BYU it will be.
