How hard would overhauling BYU’s schedule be if they join the Big 12?

Tom Holmoe has spent years piecing together schedules for an independent BYU. With Big 12 invitations reportedly coming, what will BYU do with all those scheduled games?

I can’t imagine the hours and hours it has taken for BYU to schedule in the independence era. Tom Holmoe was once asked what scheduling was like and he said something to the effect of “well, you call them on the phone and ask if they want to play a game?”

Independent scheduling must have taken hundreds of phone calls and hours of delicate negotiations. What will it be like to call and cancel so many of the series BYU administrators worked so hard to set up?
