The "difficult" tag gets slapped next to BYU a lot during expansion conversations. Is it fair? One report details how part of that came to be.
An increase of interest in potential Big 12 expansion means a lot of things, including multiple reports attaching the "difficult" moniker to BYU, as in "difficult to work with".
You've probably seen them everywhere, from blogs, to Twitter, to researched reports by respected national writers. I've heard this multiple times myself, not just from national writers, but from other administrators or those that work in the college football universe, certainly enough times for me to think it's not simply message board fodder.
