Good point on the money on TV deals. Still, as an AQ conf, the mtn and by extension the MWC schools would be in a better position to renegotiate contracts. But really, until we get a better relationship with ESPN (like the mtn selling/extorting them for the rights to some of the big matchups but kee...

From what I heard most suspensions tend to be for 2 semesters. A times, one. Spring/summer counts as 1 semester. And since Harvey dropped out prior to finals, that might count as the 2nd semester as he gets no credits for it as a result. I have no idea how it works. All I know is that Bronco's comm...

A scattershot of thoughts: A public system should: cover low-probability, high cost events. Work backwards down the probability/cost spectrum to the point where the polity (median voter) believes the cost in taxes is too high--probably somewhere just below emergency appendectomies. A public health c...

Just saw the school posted on having the most conference academic honorees for football at 32. Nice. http://www.byucougars.com/Filing.jsp?ID=13455 But I also saw that Air Force had a measly 13. I'm surprised. Do we really have smarter athletes than the academy, are A's easier to come by at the Y tha...

Regardless of what Schlabach's view may be of what the polls are supposed to reflect , it's clear that in his eyes BYU still does not have a top 25 program. Even after being among the top 5 winningest programs and ranked over each of the last 4 years.
