My point is simple: BYU, as an athletics partner, is not difficult to deal with because there is only one instance of it occurring. Our AD serves on one of the most influential college sports bodies. He wouldn't be there and continue to be there if he was leading a group of folks that are difficult to deal with. If someone ever says that BYU is difficult to deal with, ask them for examples. Only examples they can suggest is the Big East and former MW losers. No other instances they can think of. So instead of trying to validate the crap, how about we squash it?
