    Don't let the others get you down. I admire that you have the courage to speak up.

If it comes out that BYU overplayed its hand or declined an offer for reasons other than core beliefs that can't be compromised, I'll have a major problem.
          I think of this in the same light most Raiders fans probably feel. They hate the way the front office seems to screw the draft and other things every year. They don't love the front office though. They love the team. Raider nation will always be there... even if Al Davis never dies.

          I'm separating the team from the admin. The future is not lost. It's time to recommit to BYU athletics. I was weak yesterday, but today I am strong!

                I thought Utah was not Scott's first choice? I doubt there's any proof that Utah was "on his white board" anyway.

                BYU is widely considered a candidate since their administration has had numerous opportunities to say they are not, but they never have. You've got to be pretty oblivious to think that they haven't at least had initial talks with the Big 12. If you are claiming that Utah was an initial target by the PAC since they made sense, then that same logic has to be applied to BYU.

                  Beyond the fact that BYU could do everything within their power to secure a Big12 invite, but the Big12 actually has to extend an invitation?

                          Some random person with no claim to authority or sources saying that Louisville is in the B12 already.

                            Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

                                It's from a UT alum who is playing volleyball in Italy.

                                Louisville just got invited into the Big 12... That's where my little sister just committed to! HA- she will play Texas! Too funny.
