Assuming that Baylor voted with the majority,
Big 12 presidents and chancellors have voted to invite TCU to join the league, should be finalized over next several days.—

that’s some warp speed hypocrisy there, Mr. Starr. A lesser man could get whiplash.
I have been predicting this.
Well played, sir.
To think of all the power and money these guys get from kids simply playing a game! (save the academia fu-fu)
Think of all that great study time they are going to get on the plane to Fort Worth Texas!! All those non football sports kids are gonna love the cross country travel! And if they get upset about long trips on the road, they should just reassure themselves that mega conferences are making money for the good of all Athletic Directors and four letter networks everywhere.
UConn and Pitt should be jumping to the ACC any day now. Big East is on it’s last legs. Could Louisville be the team from the east to join the SEC?
Doubtful. As a resident of the Commonwealth I am hearing Louisville to the Big 12. For what that is worth.
Uhh, isn’t Pitt already in the ACC next year??
Yeah, brain fart. Forgot they jumped with Syracuse a while back.
Nope. Right now, the BE claims they are going to hold them to all exit clauses keeping them in the BE through 2013, if I recall.
If I’m the President of Baylor, my job is to look out for Baylor, not to be the Dali Lama, I don’t think even Bill Clinton would disagree.
I don’t have a problem with him looking out for Baylor, just for being a sanctimonious prick about it.
That’s kind of his MO.
Indeed.
It’s what he does, he can’t help himself. (Gently sobbing)
“TCU did not have scheduling relations with that conference.”
I don’t care who you are … that right there is funny.

Yeah, but it doesn’t mean that TCU didn’t give blow-jobs.
So long Big East, we hardly knew ye.
Do you think we could give the ACC Vandy and get VaTech and UVA in return? Then, the ACC grabs Rutgers or WV to replace the missing spot.
Apparently the Big 12ers didn’t get the memo that in the near future there will be four sixteen team conferences. Rage, rage against the dying of the light!!
Senator, please see my post re: TCU and the Big 12 of September 13, 2011 under “Kenneth Starr Must Not Be A morning Person.” The 3 most important things about being in an athletic conference: Location, Location, Location.
Given the inevitable collapse of the Big East, what about USF as a 14th SEC team? It’s geographically sensible, even if it would pit schools of my undergraduate and graduate degree in the same league, but it’s program on the rise and would give us more access to recruiting in FL.
I actually like USF. It’s a 40,000 student university with a medical school. But that directional school name–uugh! Change that name to something–anything–else.
Wow That nice Thank you for help me it work!!
