I agree. I'm just guessing but I think before TCU got the invite to join the Big XII, it was driving them mad that SMU was being considered to join the Big East. Suddenly, SMU was about to be rewarded with membership to the same conference they had worked so hard to get into. And when we beat them two weeks ago that just sent Patterson over the edge. He lost it and lashed out at JJ, our players and our school.

won't be a popular opinion around here, but when all is said and done we can thank TCU for showing us it can be done

I agree. They knocked us out of our lethargy. DFW now has two quality schools committed to winning at the highest level.

Having to accept a membership to the Big 12 must have been a real drag.
Obviously, they're pretty torn up about it. Who could blame them?

my son helps his high school off coordinator, and wears his SMU stuff to school sometimes, and a soph player told him he got something from SMU and he was so excited. I think we will have more h s players looking at us.

No, it used to be Tom Osborne. That is why he left.

I thought that was Bob Stoops[/quote]....Since Bob Stoops beat UT 55-17 last week, you might want to say the reverse.

Yea,I know. TCU will be the new Baylor in the Big 12 and aTm will new the new Vanderbilt in the SEC.

I am pretty sure that Gary Patterson will take credit for SMU's entry into a BCS conference.

In UT's current condition, UT may very well be the mistress.

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.

Why talk about TCU?
