And so it begins... a new chapter, a new experiment. Whatever you call it, whatever they may call it, it begins. Independence. New opponents. New Conferences. New Challenges.

Rise and shout, the Cougars are out. Out of our comfort zone. Out on our own. Out on a limb. And out into the unknown. It's time to write our story...determine our own future. We all must stand. We all must lift. We all must give. As one. It will take everybody to make BYU somebody.

O Rise, all loyal Cougars. There are no guarantees. We have only this moment. One shot to silence the naysayers and remove the stigma. One chance to show the country who we are. One moment to build an athletic program that rivals the nation's great ones. Remembering our roots while we pursue our future.

Rise all faithful. Get set to spring, to arrive in force, to fill every seat, to support the White and Blue, and to make our independence - unprecedented, successful, complete.

Now is our moment. Our moment to cheer, to believe, to stand up, to show up, to support. It is up to all of us. It is up to you.
