With the broadcast facilities they could do all sorts of stuff for Netflix.
I hope BYU hears about this and gets someone on it. BYU rugby could finally be on Netflix.

It's true, BYU's last non-ESPN deal went so well-they should totally do it again

I guess I don't see why BYU would outsource this

If BYU truly has options, then ESPN will pay what it's worth.

By 2019 (or 2020 if ESPN picks up their option) streaming will be better
