I agree with what you are saying, but BYU is run by LDS-Corp, the cheapest organization out there. From letting members die to save money with the handcarts to making members clean the chapels today,...

We know that MWC teams each get about 1.1 million per year from their tv deal. Boise St gets about 3 million. BYU gets about 4 million from ESPN.

I don't think it would vary too much. So, if you...

Good point. BYU is really in a rough place right now. They need the MWC teams to play them to fill their schedule. But, the MWC don't need BYU enough to offer any concessions to let BYU back into the...

Also, there is already talk of Boise's special treatment and how that should go away. Boise isn't going to BCS bowls anymore. Heck, they've only won their division once in 4 years (I do believe)....

Why bring on UTSA? Do they drastically increase the money from their tv deal?

No. So, you increase costs and nothing else. That’s not smart. UTSA might be a sleeping giant, ala TCU, Houston or...

Why would anyone take BYU? They bring some value now, but they are a dying brand. Mormonism is falling big time, loyalty to the Church's school is at an all time low, their fanbase is 64 and older,...

I don’t think ESPN cares if BYU football is independent or not. They are paying BYU peanuts and can put BYU on non Sat spots.

BYU’s payout is the same in the MWC or Indy. I’d bet BYU gets the...

Would they be stupid though? BYU definitely has value, but would BYU increase payouts to the schools enough to deal with them again?

Probably. But still, I’d laugh until I cried if the MWC passed...

Listening to BYU’s OC this morning...I think we know what type of offense he wants to run.

He coached under Anae, Auburn and LSU. He hired Roderick and Sitake and his own RB coach.

They all...

I think Bronco is the perfect G5 coach. Not the greatest recruiter but an amazing coach.

He can take a lackluster class and coach the heck out of them. Defensively he is very good.

He and...

It's like keeping the sabbath holy. Each of us are different. There are some that probably shouldn't play board games because they become angry and drive away the spirit.

There are others that...

Or a struggling church in an era of pre-prohibition that bans beer to boost converts.

I agree it shouldn't need to be spelled out.

I also think we've become a church of Pharisees and...

So, even though it's says it's not a commandment you must live it to enter the temple.

Seems like a commandment to me.

Same with beer and meat.

What it says and what we do are almost...

Yes. The current prophet has final say. BUT, they've never come out and said. There is no new, "thus saith the LORD..."

If the D&C has changed, shouldn't there be a new section stating the change?...

This is my problem with the word of wisdom. It's all over the place and has evolved over time to fit our liking. It's the definition of "the philosophies of men, mingled with scripture."

V2: "not...

And didn't Bronco want him to gray shirt?

I think you're spot on. I don't know why/how Kalani has such a shiny reputation but the guy is a snake.

He screwed over players at Utah, he did it at OSU and he's doing it now. And yet everyone...

True, but he'd have to pay his own way. If they release him, he can get on scholarship. I think after Sept 1, no scholarship.

I think.

BYU only needs to block him until Sept 1 I think and then he loses more time if he leaves.

He wouldn't start for us this year, but he'd compete next year for playing time.

If he's in the two deep BYU might not go bowling.

He's a sideshow. I don't even know if he is project level yet.

He's a young 'un to them. I do believe BYU has some starters from the 2010 and 2011 recruiting class playing for them this fall.

The irony in your post is fantastic.

I don't blame Sitake for recruiting missionaries. It's his only hope. If he lost that pipeline, BYU would die and die quickly.

BYU's high school recruiting sucks. Plain and simple. What boosts...

Lol. Pathetic.
