When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

I bet Texas wants to put a muzzle on him.

Texas won't allow another Texas school in the Big 12.
Back off Warchild seriously.

If Pickens had that much pull OSU would be in the PAC12, and not OU's dead weight. Someone needs to tell him to sit down and shut up.

my take is that there is a lot of natural gas in fw. t boone is just doing some bidness. as he sees it this is good for his natural gas gig. follow the money.

Like it or not, TBP has a good point. The Big 12 should add TCU.

He should be sucking up to Texas Tech then. The money he's going to make off the water rights he's buying up in the panhandle and west texas will make his gas profits look like nothing.

No doubt. If he can get the pipeline ready to pump water to San Antonio he will be able to get SMU thousands of horses

Can't blame TU though. I wouldn't add another Texas school either. Makes good business sense if you're running a cartel. Recruiting is hard enough so why make it even more difficult & risk loses on the field.

It's time to think out of the box & that's what I hope SO is doing!

If the re-alignment chaos is over with, the lil12 is definitely not in our future so it's time to move on & out of the box.
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

I still like the MWC-CUSA tie up with the purging of UAB, Tulane, Rice, Marshall and everyone who disagrees with me

smupony94,

I think that the MWC-CUSA merger is our best option as well. Especially if TCU finds itself without a dance partner and has to go back to the MWC.
