        • If we end up getting shot down because of the LGBTQ portion of the Honor Code...that will be awesome.

          Big12 discriminating again BYU....because of their discrimination. Full circle stuff right there.

            I don't think that will be awesome.

                not expanding at all. no Houston, no cincy. I think the assumption at this point has to be that Big 12 simply doesn't want to expand - has nothing to do with BYU/LGBTQ

                    Yeah, just like when Bob Jones lost its accreditation. That was awesome too (for the same reason).

                      No. As I explained, Boren originally believed, erroneously, that he could expand and add BYU.

                          If you read the link that JL provided...the LGBTQ issue is what sunk the BYU candidacy.
