I don't think so - that just means Cincinnati is in

QuickCoug

5/6/16 11:11am

i think no matter how you slice it cinci is in. i can't see them leaving

5/6/16 11:14am

It's been BYU and Cincy for a long time

2FarGone

5/6/16 11:16am

I tend to agree. They are the obvious choices. The rest is due diligence and

So what. WV is already in.

Walter Bellhaven

5/6/16 11:46am

Is it the #1 priority, or just the first criterium listed?

ldssdl

5/6/16 11:16am

i'm hoping its A consideration. in fact....they probably have to say its a

Probably just the arbitrary order they listed the criteria

geography being #1 is absolutely laughable

idacoug

5/6/16 11:10am

yeah....on second thought that doesn't make a whole lotta sense.

5/6/16 11:11am

Maybe it wasn't a list in order of importance. Perhaps Future Tacos numbered

5/6/16 11:13am

I just listed them the way he listed them. He didn't specify order or weighting

I agree that it's a dumb priority, but it's likely the #1 reason BYU isn't in a

I don't agree as far as PAC territory goes. We are THAT far off location-wise

They're adding Tulsa and Wichita State

jbcoug

Assuming Cincy joins, then that leaves Iowa St as BYU's travel partner

we're not even in the conference and i'm already tired of WV whining.

Wait, until we beat them this year

Why no talk about the Mountain time zone helps add more slots for TV inventory?

5/6/16 11:26am

I think this is a REALLY important factor, and i don't know why nobody is

5/6/16 11:30am

most media slots for FB are based upon EST. 12:30, 4:30, 8:30, IIRC

The only way you can claim those as wins for UCONN is if you are lying

5/6/16 2:11pm

UConn's budget is heavily subsidized. They bring in around $40M iirc.
