      it is inevitable
      We were told for years by ute fans, and others that getting into a P5 would never ever happen for BYU. So spare me the inevitable talk.

      • Even Wilner is saying now that the Pac 12-3 is less close to extinction...

          Worst oddsmaker in history.

            It took a very unique level of desperation to be willing to take on BYU's baggage and ignore the fact that they discriminate openly.

            Byu has always made financial sense. Even the pac12 now would look past their discrimination and take them.

              Lol. OK, if that narrative makes you feel better.

                The pac is in a very, very bad spot if they are willing to take BYU.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                  Like I said, Connor Bedard is in Chicago, I need only look to his shot to feel better.

                  • I hope Oregon & Washington head to the Big Ten.

                    Utah, Arizona State, Arizona to the Big 12/Southwestern Conference.

                    Cal & Stanford to the ACC (football only) / WCC all sports.

                    Oregon State & Washington State to the “new” PAC aka the MWC.

If the Utah fan base steps up and figures out how to carry the program forward through rough times, it will probably live and could potentially thrive.
                      Utah should be the heavyweight of the PAC-6 (Utah, Arizona State, Cal, Stanford, Oregon State, Washington State).

                      The TV deal won’t be great if Oregon & Washington are gone.

From there, it will basically become Utah basketball after the greatest coach that has ever set foot in this state, Rick Majerus, was unjustly and unfairly run off by Chris Hill.

                          College football as we know it is dead. It is basically the SEC/B1G and the split will become official in the next decade. Eventually, BYU will also have a conference die around it and be in the lower division too.

                          Within the next 5ish years, I'll be paying as much attention to Utah football as Utah basketball. It was fun while it lasted, but I'll find better things to invest my time in.
                          This is only true because so much of Utes fandom’s identity as fans is tied up in their conference affiliation.

                          i mean, I’ve tried being a fan of my law school team and a local team (located in a city bearing my name and who my all time favorite baseball player played), but I just can’t do it. There’s something about that first love.
