Some college presidents/officials are some of the craziest people in this country.
Missouri openly declared it was awaiting with bags packed an invitation from the Big Ten. And the invitation never came.
The Pac 10/12 commissioner thought he would show the Texas Legislature the day they started mentioning Baylor -- immediately extending a formal invitation to Colorado. Instead of just letting them talk, he jumped the gun. When the other five that he really wanted backed out, he had no choice but invite Utah to get some balance.
Texas A&M did them all one better, -- packing its bags, telling everybody bye, and going down to the bus station. Even though there was no 14th school, the Aggies thought they could publicly pressure the SEC into taking them right away.
That bus didn't come either, and now the Aggies are walking back home. A&M will evenutally get in the SEC, but in the meantime there is a helluva lot of laughter at its expense.
How stupid can these people be?!!!
TCU gets a lot of flack from outside about jumping conferences. However, it is a proven fact that TCU did not contact the MWC -- the MWC recruited TCU. And, I know for a personal fact that TCU sat on the official invitation for almost a month in secret before making a final decision. And it was the Big East that sent a Jamie Dixon as a liason to gauge TCU's interest in possibly joining that conference.
We may be little, we may be underdogs, we may never be in the ultimate place . . . but at least we're not walking home with our tails between our legs with everybody pointing and laughing at us.
