Add BYU's established practices of sound management to Big 12 money and the willingness and ability to harness the strength of our alumni/donor network and fanbase through NIL, etc. The ability to tap into available resources is actually becoming a competitive advantage on the field of play.

For years, including our best years, we had to win in spite of enormous financial disadvantages. An even playing field with many of our conference and other opponents is a massive upgrade and huge relative advantage compared to years past.

A BYU that takes to the starting line with its parking break on is becoming a thing of the past. Haters hate it. For fans and our actual programs, it's kinda awesome.
