BYU is known for its rich athletic history and tradition due in part to the overwhelming amount of media attention it has received over the years. Writers and broadcasters representing the nation's most respected media outlets regularly interact with Cougar coaches and student-athletes. BYU teams have been featured on television, radio, Web sites and in magazines and newspapers nationwide.
The BYU Athletic Communications staff works closely with student-athletes and coaches in servicing media requests. The office diligently works to provide the latest releases, notes, quotes and statistics to the media. All information can be found online at www.byucougars.com.
The following is general information for members of the media. Policies may vary from sport to sport. Please refer to the sport-specific Web page for the most detailed information.
