    Welll they are called "bleacher report" thus inferring that its from a fan's perspective.

      I've used Ray Quinney in the past; they are really good. I'm glad the church didn't leave this to the nice folks at the firm of Kirton and Bruce R. McConkie.
      Good thing the lead attorney for BYU is a Utah grad (and former member of the BOT).

            Kirton McConkie, in my dealings with them, have been strikingly evil and almost as strikingly incompetent.

            For what its worth.
            I think, perhaps, the only person who hates BYU fans more than ute fans hate BYU fans, is Bronco Mendenhall.

              I've only dealt with them once professionally (and we were on the "same side" of a deal), but from what I've heard elsewhere (including from one of the named partners' grandsons) is simply that they think their shit don't stank.

                    I used them once on a personal matter (tricky adoption situation) and they were fantastic. Pulled us out of a potentially difficult situation. I went there when our former attorney put his hands up and basically said he couldn't figure out how to deal with it.
                    One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

                      Snooping around the interwebs, I see that any talk of BYU and the Big 12 has dwindled to nothing. There is NOTHING out there anymore. It's all talk of Louisville, Clemson, Florida State and Maryland.

                      Uggh.

                        Imagine: seven slots (if four added) open in two years and BYU not in the B12. Amazing. How corrosive are we?

                          Maybe we can annex the mormon college in VA and join the ACC?

                            I'm holding out hope BYU can ink November scheduling deals with two quality teams. The most viable options would be Boise and ND. For sanity's sake I have stopped dreaming of the Big-12. If it happens then i'll be stoked but i'm done pulling my hair out over it.

                              If eight added that would be 11 slots. Or if twelve added it would be 15 slots. That's corrosive!

                                Mind boggling.
