This a good get....

It makes sense for them as there are closer teams, less travel, and still AQ status. Only problem is now the big XII is essentially the Texas League. Most of OU and OSU players come from TX anyway...talk about ISU and the Kansases feeling left out. Lol

There was an article linked to Twitter just a bit ago about how the Big 12 was going to invite TCU.

Talk about hypocrisy in light of how they tried to force A&M to stick around.

How long until SMU gets an invite? Or Texas Southern?

At least we don't have to listen to ISU fans talk about suing others or getting congress involved any more.

Maybe when all of this is done, they will return to being the original Southwest Conference...almost.

The Big Texas conference is more like it, amirite?

Considering that the Big East is all but dead, TCU made a good decision. Plus, I think they can hold their own in the Big 12. Going to be slightly tougher than the MWC.
