Would be great.....but there's no possible way. I still think it's going to be MWC/CUSA merger or nothing for us in the end.

Can't believe the negativity. With the boost in money and recruiting, we can easily compete to finish in the top 3 in the West regularly.

Obviously, LSU will be tough, but we can hang with the rest of them.

of course it a huge longshot. But its not hard to see how our name could come up when the SEC presidents are in the Board room looking at the large map of the good ole USA. And Turner probably still has some contacts in the SEC presidential ranks. i would rather be in the Big12 if we are dreaming, but i can see a definite angle to the SEC invading Dallas.

No way this happens. We don't have anywhere to park the visiting fans RVs, and our neighbors in HP and UP certainly won't allow them parked on the streets.

I agree to some degree. We could easily crack the BCS in the Big East but would have a tough time making it in the SEC. Maybe it's a good thing for us they are considering allowing multiple schools from one conference in the BCS.

The basketball would be better in the Big East of course. SEC basketball is boring.

I'd kill myself because it's all down hill afterwards. This would be the greatest coup ever. Statue of Orsini needed.

ya know, this is funny. I was on Mockingbird the other day and the ole Mrs Bairds lot caught my eye and i actually thought to myself it would make a great place for a few hundred Arkansas RVs.

Would rather go west. Pac-whatever the hell the number is. Just sayin'. About as much chance as that happening as my son going to TCU.
