Yeah you got loads of talent for sure. We are catching up tho. For the 2026 recruiting class, we are right on your heels.

Everything you said after "We don’t have a big money donor like Tech has" is wrong. Others have addressed the location comment. BYU can compete financially. When we extended Kalani we gave a commitment to provide even more NIL money. I have heard there are at least a half-dozen billionaires actively supporting BYU sports, 60+ in the 500 million plus range (includes the Crumbl guy), and lots in the lower hundreds of millions and tens of millions. We will have enough to compete in the Big 12 and beyond. There's a lot of money in Phoenix. I am surprised you don't have lots of big money donors. Best coach in the conference by far? Wut? Dillingham is a good coach and made ASU relevant which is indeed an accomplishment, but Kalani just won B12 coach of the year, Joey McGuire is a heck of a coach, Frost is going to have UCF salty soon, Whittingham is no slouch, Brennan did a nice job this year, what Campbell did at Iowa State was impressive although he's gone now, Henderson at UH has created a competitive team despite obstacles. I expect ASU to be competitive and in the upper half of the conference every year, but c'mon man have some perspective on the other talented coaches in the conference.

Big 12 to Nebraska:

The only way to incentive Texas to play OSU and similar big time OOC matchups in the future is to expand the playoff field where even the best 3 loss teams have a chance to get in the playoff.

We feel jobbed by the CFP committee, but they have been telegraphing this move for weeks so we expected it. We were not shocked like ND. Even still we feel like every year we are taking a step forward. First year in P4 was rough (5-7). Y2 we were 11-2 and almost made the CCG and the CFP. Y3 we were 11-1, made the CCG, and just barely missed the CFP. We also just signed our highest rated recruiting class ever (#21), locked in our head coach, and have increased commitments for NIL. We are ascendant and the future looks bright. Kalani is taking the high road and saying all the right things and showing respect for Georgia Tech. We all wanted to play ND, show we are better than them, and show we deserved to be in the CFP. We want to take our righteous anger out on our next opponent like we did to Colorado last year after getting snubbed by the CFP. We mostly think ND is acting like cowards (they knew they would be playing BYU and decline) and crybabies. They are throwing a fit. Some history. We had a 6 game contract during independence with ND. It was a 2-for-1 home/away balance. When they made a deal with the ACC that complicated the series and delayed it. We had played 2 games in Bend and we were trying to get the game in Provo scheduled. They wouldn't fulfill their agreement and refused to come to Provo. We ended up playing a neutral in Vegas to close out the shortened deal. We see it as another bitchass move on their part, just like the refusal to play us again this year. A lot of BYU fans are sick of their antics.

You get it. And I appreciate that we do control our destiny here. What irks us is that we are held to a different standard than others even tho we are in a power conference now.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?

This one is for you @Hagbard Celine lol:

You make some fair points, Stache.

Yup. No one is giving us a chance. We've been doubted and underdogs in most games this year. We just secured our beloved coach. Our team is much healthier this time around. This team wants this rematch. Tech is a very good team and I think they will do some damage in the CFP, but don't be too surprised if BYU pulls the upset Saturday.

Would not surprise me if true, especially because we are not desperate for donors. -
I think this is correct. And it would be some sweet karma for us to knock ND out of the playoffs. And even if BYU loses, but it's a close one, would they take BYU just to solve the ND/Miami/Texas Gordian Knot and it's easier to explain?

And BYU played a P4 schedule, not a G5 one.
