Depends,

Are we talking SEC membership or only Big10?

Jaylen is not smart enough to get into SMU anyway. He has t-mobile.

It's easy to get stuck in the present and not see ways out given their recent success and our recent failure, but give it a decade.

Going to disagree there. Jamie Dixon will have them competitive in the Big 12 in 2 years

All depends on how you define competitive....

Competitive as in winning a couple of conference games? I tend to agree.

Competitive as in for the Big12 Championship? I tend to not agree.

I think Dixon will be successful because of the brand of ball he plays. It's the anti Big 12, hard nosed, clutch and grab, physicalnetc. His staff is good in its entirety, but not slam dunk great. They be good sooner than later

Competitive in AAC? Yes. But CM has a much larger hill to climb in terms of national relevance than Dixon at TCU
