I'm not sure what your point is. That there are some alumni who don't rep BYU?

I don't think anyone is debating that.

But there's a big difference between Taysom Hill who represented BYU as our QB and was beloved throughout his entire time at BYU and beyond, compared to Ken Jennings who was virtually unknown during his time at BYU and didn't represent BYU on national television for years like Taysom.

Right. So then he’s not going out of his way to not wear ByU gear.

I believe Taysom endorses Adidas. BYU gear is Nike. Isn't allowed to wear it.

Interesting theory...might be the closest to the truth (versus the others).

Makes the most sense, but would that extend to not wearing a BYU logo even if there’s no Nike? Or even blue?

No it definitely would not
