Um yeah, BYU is already cheap to attend, then on top of that they give NIL "deals" to anybody that makes a team, making school essentially free. So yes, they can match anybody out there. They way high school kids are all looking for free school, no mater where it is, BYU is about to be a major player, just watch.
LOL....Delusional. BYU. The overwhelming majority of athletes in any sport don't want to go to a radical religious school in the middle of nowhere. The alumni at BYU can't match 100's of other universities.
You people are crazy… the Mormon church is a tax exempt business worth over 100 billion dollars… gtfo that they can’t match other SEC type schools with money!
100 Billion… and that is not including what many of their rich alums are worth.
They have a lot of money!

Okay. Here is the list of PAC12 schools rumored to be changing:
Oregon
Arizona
Ucla
Arizona State
Washington State

Those are half the schools in the conference.
And yea they seem to have the goods

If Oregon wants to stay dominate as a full track team, hiring Mike Smith would be a mistake. The winning formula is having a sprints/jump guy as HC with distance separate. Otherwise you turn into what Mick Byrne did at Wisconsin...make track obsolete and XC because hit or miss.
Pretty sure Oregon can hire assistant coaches for those event groups. You realize they're fully funded, right? They can scholarship more than one event group and also focus on distance. They've won plenty of distance-heavy championships too.

You do realize Mike Smith wins conference track & field titles, has barely lost any at NAU. NAU is a dominant distance school, but they get it done in the other events as well as a comprehensive track & field team. That is one thing I admire with their dominance in XC, they aren't like some of these schools that have put everything into distance. No respect for the WCC schools, Boise State, Notre Dame, Furman types who are miserable in all the other events. So Mike Smith would do an amazing job of putting out well rounded track & field teams that would win national titles, no question.

You realize most of those schools in the WCC are not fully funded? Also the WCC doesn’t have any conference championships for track & field, so doesn’t make a lot of sense to have a complete track program.
Also never understood how the good track programs can get away having junk distance programs but good distance programs get slammed for having “miserable” other events. Florida women didn’t have a team qualify for XC nat’s disqualifying them from program of the year consideration.. no one makes a deal about that. North Carolina A&T didn’t have crap for distance, but Ross doesn’t get the criticism for ignoring distance and is a slam dunk hire for Tennessee.
If a program decides to put their resources in one event area, regardless if it’s distance, sprints, throws.. that’s their decision.. not the LR nimrods.
Now.. back to jobs.

Sure, but were 18 and 12.5 scholarships really intended for just XC? NO. That's the difference with distance focused programs, gives a ridiculous advantage in this whole other sport, XC. There isn't a whole other sport where your throwers, or your sprinters, or your jumpers would compete. Be smarter.
Also, if you don't have a track & field conference meet, you shouldn't be allowed to compete at NCAA's in track & field, complete freaking joke.
