(huge Utah fans) gleefully explained to me how this was the beginning of the end for BYU.
They explained the difference in media earnings.
Recruiting.
Prestige.
Year after year, the gap would only increase.
Congrats on your decade+ head start, Utah.
Year two on an even playing field, and BYU is undefeated, top 10.
You are at the bottom of the conference, with your only “record” being the largest fine given in Big 12 history.
Welcome to the beginning of the end of Utah football. In the coming years, your descent will mirror your basketball program.
Hopefully Harlan can order curtains for Rice Eccles on his way out.
