So far as the reports are true, welcome to the BCS club gentlemen, and greetings from Cincinnati.

I think having 2 former SWC teams is long overdue. Have met many SMU alums over the years.

We have a real nice Big East General Board here, http://ncaabbs.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=409&page=1
and we have some Houston, UCF, Boise, and the usual suspects that make it an active board.

We are doing due diligence on our new conference mates. If you would, please post pictures of your coeds. We will return the favor.

Good to have you drop by. I am one of the few (if any) Ponies in the Queen City. Looking forward to play the Cat's sometime.

Now that is a fine way to start, but I hear Dallas is all about hot coeds, jaguars and starbucks, or is that Orange County????

Club SMU, Chicago Chapter:

I can't wait for BB games at DePaul, Marquette and even Notre Dame. For FB, Louisville and Cincinnati are not bad drives. Both are fun cities on the Ohio River.

As for non-revenue, soccer, volleyball and, of course, swimming & diving look great. If we add another Men's sport, either Track & Field/CC or baseball, then BE Women's Lacrosse is a perfect fit for SMU.

As Chicagoan, Daniel Burhnam once said, "Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men's blood and probably will not themselves be realized."
