ORLY.

Quote:Scott Barnes said on Friday there remains a misconception of his role in BYU's near-move to the WAC in every sport except football. Furthermore, he said Utah State didn't received an offer to join the Mountain West at that time.

So USU AD Scott Barned "...didn't receivED an invitation from the Mountain West at that time..?" [emphasis added.]

High-Quality Newspaper there, USU guys.



BTW, It's correct that the AD didn't try to recruit BYU to the WAC... that was Stan Albrecht, the Utah State PRESIDENT & former BYU administrator, who did that. Revisionist history.
