Why the anxiety. There are those that are crazy enough on here that think we should shoot down an invite to the BE to remain in the CUSA and pray for a merger with MWC or an invite from the SEC, ACC, PAC12, etc.
Does this help you at all?
http://www.chron.com/sports/solomon/art ... 214022.php"A few weeks ago, two Big East officials said the conference had absolutely no interest in UH - not popular enough, not pretty enough, and not on a big-time budget. That was before that league suffered defections by Syracuse and Pittsburgh.
Even then, those officials maintained that UH was nowhere in the Big East picture. Though it has plans for a facilities face-lift, UH still wasn't good-looking enough.
Then TCU, the Elizabeth Taylor of college athletics, left the Big East at the altar to join the Big 12.
Now the Big East is running a credit check on UH. At least it is now in the discussion."
We've been listed ahead of UH in several places. Which means if things happen as many respectable sources are saying UH would be the one left behind, not us. I think they have more to worry about. If we are out so are they. IMO

The good thing about being bi-polar is you're never wrong. Or you never lose, or maybe you never win? ModelT, care to enlighten us?
It is funny to literally see his ups and downs play out minute by minute on the interweb.

It truly is. Especially after yesterday where every single report from the BE looked positive for us.

There is still one more dance that has yet to happen. Remember what June Jones said, ultimately its headed to four 16 team conferences. That is the dance card that we have to be on. If we get left off by the BE, bad, but not fatal. Why? The SEC still has three places at the table. The Big Ten 4 seats. The PAC 12, four seats and the ACC two seats. Note that the Big XII is left out. Note that the BE is left out. So, there are 22 teams for those 13 seats plus all of CUSA, MWC, MAC and SBC. If Houston and UCF defect, we have a chance to win CUSA year after year for the next five years and perhaps with good scheduling get a few undefeated seasons in there and pull a Boise and be in BCS games every year. So, when the music stops and those 22 teams start running for the chairs, we'll be a perennial top 25 team. Boise may not be at that point. UConn, Rutgers, and Louisville may not be there at that point. KU, KSU, Missouri, Iowa State, TT, Baylor, TCU may not be. In other words, we'll have a better resume than some BCS teams and might be able to get an invite. I hope that we go Big East with Houston. That would be great for both programs.

You should sign him up for our ponzi...uhh...program.
don't know if you guys watch or saw Tosh.o last night, but they did a web redemption on a bad actor, and staged it like they were in the Celebrity Center.
posters in the background:
one had Travolta and Cruise with the quote "we're here, we're clear, get used to it"
the other one said "making Mormons look smart since 1952"
