Yeah, I don't like this move. But neither do any of the football schools in the Big East. They did it because they know they have to expand to survive, and the basketball-only schools won't approve anyone that further threatens the symmetry of their league.

It's all politics. The basketball schools ...

I enjoy good vandalism. This was not good vandalism. Uncreative and tacky.

I doubt any TCU student was responsible for this. I mean, orange? My guess is it was some high school/middle school kids trying to create a stir.

Man, if that ain't the pot calling the kettle black.

Not really. I think SMU has the potential to go to a BCS game eventually, I just don't think there's any chance it happens next year.

How many bowl wins did TCU string together before we got our first invite? Like eight? It's not an ...

I would be interested to know how the legal theory that TCU should have know that these two could allegedly sexually assault another student based on their academic record and a misdemeanor assault charge against them? Do the courts consider anyone with low academic achievements to be a potential ...

The beauty of our campus and co-eds is only matched by UT.


The TCU Showgirls beg to differ.

What happened to this girl was horrible. But I don't think it's the school's fault.

TCU isn't unsafe. Actually, outside of SMU I'd say it's probably the safest major campus in Texas. But then, y'all are a gated community.

Whenever you get several thousand kids together in one place a few of them ...

Although it would be fun to see SMU in a BCS game. I'd root for you.

You won't get there because the at-large bid will go to either TCU or Boise (likely Boise next year). And you'd get creamed because they'd set you up against someone like Alabama or Oklahoma to protect their system. But I'd root ...

This was embarrasing for our school. There was a thread about this over on our boards, it was unanimous derision for this jerk. I agree, that cop should have drug him out of there, his behavior was unacceptable.

Since June Jones has arrived at SMU, y'all are 0-4 against ranked teams.

Y'all sure this article isn't a bit premature?

I'm confused UF. You are pontificating on what MWC should do after you gave them the brown helmut. A bit cheeky, don't you think?


Brown helmut? I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.

I just think it would have been a good move for both parties if SMU joined the MWC along with Houston ...

Good move by the MWC, showing a commitment to not water down their product by selling out to the tv companies. But it also means SMU and Houston said no, which I think was a mistake.

Whatever. The MWC will likely be able to expand when/if the Big12 explodes.

Yep. Can't say I blame them either, I'd do the same thing if I was in Thompson's shoes.

The Tech thing is what really steams me. What a bunch of sissies up there in Lubbock.

I've heard it rumored that the Pac 10 desperately wants to somehow get a hold of the DFW TV market... with TCU going to the Big East, and the Big 12-2 staying together, i've heard talk of SMU potentially getting an invite... I can't reveal my identity or reveal where i got this information, but ...
