- BYU Football: Official member of the Big 12 (Commissioner Brett Yormark). President Shane Reese said Saturday Stadium of Fire that you can feel the change on campus. Excitement is everywhere.
- Reducing the Transfer Portal windows – Is it a good idea? NCAA wants to cut the transfer windows from 60 days to 30 days. The winter portal was 45 days (Dec. 5 to Jan. 18), the spring portal was 15 days (April 15 to April 30). A final vote will take place in October. Is it a good idea?
- NFL Camps: Football returns this month! So when can we see Jaren Hall and Puka Nacua on the field?
- Big 12 TV deal is complete: Finalized last Friday. Contract with FOX and ESPN runs 2025 through 2031. BYU will receive between 18-19 million this year and next and become a full revenue partner in 2025 – reportedly worth 50 million annually.
- LaVell Edwards Stadium. Royal blue end zones. Stretch Y at mid field with Big 12 logos along the side.
Commissioner Brett Yormark on the BYU Brand:
“BYU is a national brand. They can become a household brand for sure, and we are going to help them like they help the conference. If BYU wins, the conference wins. If the conference wins, BYU wins. I want ESPN and FOX to glamorize all of our programs. I’m confident that will happen with BYU.”
“When I got on campus (last fall), which was the first time for me at BYU, I sensed the energy and enthusiasm. I’ve grown up in college sports and I know the breadth and depth of BYU and Cougar Nation. It’s a big national brand. It fits so perfectly within our conference footprint. For me, that validation really was the day they accepted their invitation.”
Commissioner Brett Yorkmark on Expansion:
“From where I sit, it’s not so much about the Pac-12 tv deal. When I think of expansion, whoever we bring in needs to bring value to the equation. When I think about schools that could be added, we have guiding principles for expansion – academics, leadership, cultural fit, geography, athletic performance, and brand.”
“I’d like to stay at 14 teams, even after the departures of Oklahoma and Texas. We’ll see about that. We are not chasing a number. It’s more about the fit.”
San Diego State: After informing the Mountain West Conference that they intended to leave the conference by the June 30th deadline, they changed their mind. The Aztecs are staying put – for now. As BYU found out over the years as an Independent, to join a P5 conference, you have to be invited.
Commissioner Brett Yormark on Basketball:
“We are working with ESPN right now and I am excited about the schedule. It will be out in August or September and that should be an exciting moment and we will amplify it. It will be an 18-game conference schedule. Each school will play five teams twice and eight teams once.”
Women’s Hoops:
- BYU commit Delaney Gibb is in training camp this week with Canada’s Under-19 National Team. They are preparing to go overseas and play next month. Gibb is a four-star guard, and No. 2 player in Canada. She will be at BYU in the fall of 2024.
Golf:
- Former Cougar Peter Kuest is enjoying his first top 5 finish on the PGA Tour. Kuest got into the tournament on a sponsor exception and made the most of it – finishing tied for fourth at the Rocket Mortgage Classic – good for a payday around $365,000.
- How tough is the tour? Last year’s Rocket Mortgage champion Tony Finau, and last week’s second place finisher Zac Blair both missed the cut.

We asked Jimmer:
Did you ever think the phrase “Jimmered” as in “you just got Jimmered” would become a thing?
We refer to “Jimmerland” all of the time when a guy shoots out near half court. Are you ever surprised at the impact you and your game have had on people around the world?
