    But I agree with you. In general, they need a championship game.
    Apparently not enough to invite BYU.

      BYUs unreasonable demands of the B12 prevented that from happening. Pity.

        Right. They used to have a name for this kind of thing at Brighton High. BYU thinks her shit don't stink. Is that what you're saying?

          In the past year or so, BYU has been approached by the Big East twice, th B12 once, and ESPN once. BYU was given millions by ESPN and appears weekly on national TV. I think all of that has gone to BYUs dome and clouded perception.

          I do think the next round of negotiations will see BYU being more reasonable and realistic.

            This post is pure BS. there were no offers; I was only kidding.

            The ESPN deal is pure consignment. Every heard of those arrangements?

              YO thanks you for not using the more graphic "poop".

              Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                This is pure fantasy. It flies in the face of all evidence. You keep that delusion, I'll believe it when I see it. Until then, there is no reason to believe BYU admins will pull their heads out.

                  In a 10,000+ post thread about BYU joining the B12, you point out that my one post is "pure fantasy" and "flies in the face of all evidence." You have amazing powers of perception.

                    I was remiss by failing to point out all other fantasy in this thread rather than just the latest example...

                        I am watching the B12 intently but all accounts, it seems that Mizzou is definitely leaving this summer, along with aTm. There will be no delays.

                        The latest directly from Mizzou supports this notion.

                        So I am puzzled about what the B12 will do to get to 10 teams by July. There has been no movement yet on the part of the Big East to allow West Virginia to exit.

                              They can leave. It's a damages case.

                                We already know that your analysis has been mostly wrong in this case.
