BYU has a great opportunity right now to go to the Big XII, but it seems they will turn down the invitation because they don't want to offend the WCC. I can understand these concerns, especially since they have offended the MWC and WAC in the last ten years. If the contract is more than a one year contract, then I can also understand their concern. However, I don't think the contract is more than a year and I also think the WCC will understand.
I hope BYU accepts the honor and furthers their mission by joining the Big XII.
