Y'all see BYU Mens golf team is playing its final round (Sunday) today at Greyhawk. By themselves. They're putting the pins where they'll be Sunday for them.

That's some t.u. level bullsh** right there.

For a religious exemption? Eh. It is weak but it is what it is.

No, they should just forfeit if the event doesn't work for their religious beliefs.

as a Christian, but certainly not a mormon, I'm good with it. Wish there was more of this honestly.

I have no idea why this tournament isn't played to end Saturday, then give the top 8 teams a day off before match play.

Seems a lot of people don't know that part of the competition is the physical grind on the players. Who can outlast everyone else. It's supposed to play like a marathon.

I get that marathon thought- but it would give your top 8 their best shot and playing their best

Welcome to NCAA sports. This isn't new. It also hasn't appeared to help them in previous years.

And teams know exactly what score they have to shoot if they are battling BYU for a spot.

Ladies championship ended yesterday. The course need the day break to recondition the course and set it up for the men. Not to mention transition the teams and let them get in a practice round.

You guys sure seem to have a lot of opinions without taking the time to figure out the situation.

BYU is up near the top of my list of hated teams.

Don't put the women's and men's championship on the same course

Then you don't get TV and the coverage we have.

Don't try to solve a problem that doesn't exist.

Exactly. If they can't play on the dates scheduled then they should not even participate.

I was just going with the train of thought. I bet you're fun to be around. I mean if you would have just told us all of the things at play we wouldn't even need this forum anymore. Thanks for relaying the information in such a welcoming way.

Nor attempt to checkout the hook.

Tony Finau is a Mormon and plays golf every Sunday.

So what's their number? They're T13 going into this round.

What if there's a playoff?

This just seems dumb.

They shot +23 for Round 3, so they are 36 over after three rounds. Doubt they'll make top 15.

+23 Ouch

so did this whole non-Sunday thing backfire? I think for Rd 1, no team was under par, so guessing weather? So BYU played their third round early in tougher conditions and now that scores are lower today (multiple teams under par early), this seems to have backfired.

Good. Bogus exemption for them.

Plenty of Mormons do stuff/compete on Sundays.

Hindsight is 20/20. It could have very well mattered. Just because it didn't matter doesn't just mean the process was right. Isn't there a fallacy named for this line of thinking?

Miserable people complaining about something that hasn't actually happened?

I'm sure there's some diagnosis.

What didn't happen? They played on their own day with no one else.

Sure, they didn't win, but either way the NCAA deserves some blame.

Not at all. This has been a thing for a while in all their sports. And yet y'all are acting like it's the first time. And like the rest there wasn't a issue.

It's always dumb that the NCAA bends over backwards for one school. This is just the most recent and relevant so we are talking about it now. HTH.
