BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe meets with members of the media during his semiannual roundtable session Wednesday, Jan. 24, 2018, in Provo.

BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe, during an hour-long discussion with reporters Wednesday, contradicted a statement made by Bronco Mendenhall during his last year at BYU. If anything, it illustrates how BYU’s challenges as an independent have changed during the past 24 months.

When asked if independence was sustainable three years ago, Mendenhall told media members no, it was not.

This week, Holmoe was asked the same question.
