That BYU team plays with so much confidence and it starts with Coach Sitake" ~ Coach Saban

We've been waiting to cross the 3M viewers mark all season for @CollegeGameDay
The @BYUCougars delivered! Most-viewed show this season and No. 3 all-time. Wow!
What a weekend in Provo, Utah ‼️
@CollegeGameDay reached 3M viewers from @BYU, making it the most-watched episode this season & the 3rd most-watched regular season episode EVER 📈
My writeup on today's news that Jaxon Kohler & 70+ players received an injunction to remain eligible.
-What's special about this injunction and why it's good news
-Next 2 hurdles to clear to remain eligible
-Odds to remain eligible. Today was a BIG day

s/o to @samcehrlich for the assist on explain to me the differences in injunctions. He is a great follow to track and understand class of 2022 eligibility

Keeping in tact the more recent trend of judges finding that the status quo is that Class of 2022 athletes are eligible because that's what the bylaws say.
Makes it much, much easier to justify an injunction.
The judge hearing the case, Beth McGowen, made the court aware today she is a BYU grad and Gonzaga fan. Jaxon Kohler (BYU) and Xaivian Lee (Gonzaga) are part of the case. Go Cougs and Go Zags (for today, at least)
Hearing is over. Feedback I’ve received from people there is that it’s likely players will get an injunction. Judge should issue the ruling this afternoon.
Big morning for Jaxon Kohler. The Glancey vs NCAA injunction hearing in Santa Clara, CA is currently underway. Continuation of the Sept 29 hearing. Should get a ruling today if an injunction is granted and the players remain eligible. Most seem to think it will. We will see.

I know for a fact these numbers are wrong. They’re mathematically impossible.
I personally know two donors whose contributions alone would put us at double the reported spend. And that doesn’t even include the likely 20–30 others who contribute big dollars each year.
Whoever told you this either lied or is spreading a false, negative narrative.
Our athletics have never been in a better spot. Why is someone pushing this message right now? 🤔
It takes a village and everyone has the same goal. Let’s all push in the same direction together!
Go Cougs! 💙💙💙
Remember when Kalani was frustrated about resources?
Word on the street is that Kalani had verbal commitments from 2 Ohio State receivers and a Tennessee lineman.
But when they went to check the funds, Brian Santiago had moved $8 million from football to basketball without informing the program.
As a result, they weren't able to pay the recruits what they thought they could and lost them.
During the last transfer portal, Ohio St lost six wide receivers including 4 and 5⭐ recruits, and Tennessee lost six OLinemen.
It's very likely that, without Brian Santiago, those players would have been playing for BYU this year.
Two weeks from tonight BYU hoops opens the season vs Ohio State in Salt Lake City. Good test for both teams that features two of nation's top freshmen in Bruce Branch and Anthony Thompson. KenPom has each team with 50% win probabilty.
Quick write up on BYU basketball’s #25 Preseason AP Poll ranking. The next iteration of the poll could see a big shakeup as we get more clarity on eligibility of fifth years guys. Some voters considered them in rankings, others did not. vanquishthefoe.com/byu-baske…
