I find this thread to be very interesting - Page 2 - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

I think Hill would be a fantastic commissioner wherever he went.

The fact that some BYU fans wouldn't want him is all a part of the rivalry and nothing to get into a huff about.

Hill would do what it takes to turn this conference into a legit contender for the BCS. Thompson has yet to convince me that he can do that. He says things like, "well, the big ten is already following our example by getting its own network..."

That's right Craigy...and from here on out all the other teams could get a better deal then we have...

I also think he needs to expand. Some disagree with me and say that splitting money among more teams doesn't help, which is true if you are splitting Vegas Bowl money...but not Fiesta Bowl money.

The contract with CSTV gets bigger if we expand
