right now of all the teams that have moved so far TCU is less of a winner than everyone else that has moved. Pitt syracuse Utah tamu mizzou all have found themselves in conferences that will never die. That can't be said for the big 12.

You just can't beat Texas and get away with it.
Blame Canada, err, Texas. UTexas, I mean.
Thad, Do you think it was a coincidence that Charles Wright, the head of the NCAA's infractions committee at the time, drove an ORANGE Cadillac? I'm sure he could have cared less about that loss!
Charles Alan Wright is known by everyone who went to law school anywhere as a legal scholar. He was also known to be a mean, petty, vindictive, jealous man who was enraged beyond belief when SMU signed David Stanley (yes, that David Stanley). UT coaches badly wanted that kid and the entire UT community was apoplectic when he came here instead. Of course we had beaten them like a drum regularly at that time so we suffered an even worse fate than U of H which also upset the orange due to their success on the field.
