T. Boone Pickens tweets expansion thoughts and SMU

Post by rooster »

This just tweeted from the man himself (or at least his official, verified account):

#Big12 - if you want to talk expansion you have to think TCU. If you want to talk bigger, Houston makes sense. Even bigger? Rice and SMU.

interesting.

So he equates us with Rice. A school that has shown ZERO commitment to winning at the D1 level. Great.

hard to believe that one minute he is on board with going to the west coast. now he seems to be on board with regional matchups. you would think the guy would be consistent.

Houston over SMU. Well isn't that precious

I one day yearn for never, ever being mentioned with Rice athletically. I figured what with the locker room renos, IPF planning, stadium expansion plans lying around, JJ, 40 million in Moody renovations, Crum, SMU2BCS...thought MAYBE we'd have distanced ourselves from an atrocious black hole of athletic excellence that has to fight its own people just to exist.
