Sounds as if ESPN is in wait and see mode as BYU Football enters one of it's toughest schedules in history… (at least on paper).
The W/L record in 2018-19 will perhaps determine the future BYU/ESPN contract and it's monetary worth.

Tom Holmoe said he's confident that final game in three-game series with Notre Dame will happen. Holmoe added on the ND game, "it will be better than a paycheck."#BYU #BYUMediaDay

"The NFL needs more #BYU football players. They need more good ambassadors in that league." -Kalani Sitake#BYUMediaDay #ESPN960
— ESPN960Sports (@espn960sports) June 22, 2018
The theme from "BYU Football Media Day" IMO will be….
"JUST WIN"
No frills, no hype, no hyperbole, no over promising, just a message of, we have to win and get to a bowl game.
We have to win all the games we are favored in and upset 1 or 2 of the teams that we are dogs to.

BYU is once again a free agent, hoping ESPN (their partner) places them in a bowl game that matches their in season performance.
