And for JTstang, NTSU
They will be blackballed.

SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

That is sickening to me. Were I in Baylor's shoes I think I'd be just as happy to very vocally tell the Pac 10 to go fall off in the ocean somewhere.
Perhaps the folks at Berkeley didn't hear that Baylor allows dancing now.

More so than you might think. They just don't subscribe to the lockstep requirements of political correctness and all that implies. The ivory tower elite are as far from true liberalism (i.e. openness to free inquiry) as can be. Quite ironic really.

I believe that has inspired a new show next year for CBS. Dancing With The Bears.

Baylor has had money, media exposure and opportunities far beyond SMU and they just blow it. I don’t wish anyone ill as this realignment thing works its way out but good gosh, we have scrambled for decades to be relevant. Baylor was relevant because of its conference and didn’t take advantage.
Who cares about the Baylor High fans? They didn't deserve to be in a conference with the money-making big boys, anyway. They have been given a financial gift ever since being invited to the Big 12, and especially now that they have hired such a joke of a president, here's hoping they end up in the SWAC or Southland Conference.

Does this mean that Baptists can now have sex standing up, too?

Don't be so sure about that. I heard they still frown upon going both ways.

You guys need to get a grip.
Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.

Only at arm's length with only the hands touching. The music played at a moderately slow tempo. It's a Baptists thingy. 'nuff said

can't blame Baylor for their panic...they may soon be reminded they belong with TCU, SMU, Rice, Tulane and "2nd tier" state schools.
