Mark it for me too. Humbug to all you folks that think TCU is five seconds from being back in the Mountain West.I actually think that's where we end up. Mark it down.

Of course, he was probably up there to take in a Cubs game.
I believe that combination of factors: DFW and ease of access/egress, and the ability to showcase themselves in Texas with all the carriage fees and other lagniappe to go along with it make TCU an attractive potential addition. We bring things no one else can.If the B1G does expand to TX I think it would be the Frogs because of airport access. That would drive the folks from Tech crazy. They have a ton of alumni here in DFW but their sports are played in Lubbock.
You also thought we should give Gary another 10 years just because we beat Texas.TCU paying for a “work” trip to see a few alums and go to a Cubs game. He’s posting grinning selfies like a teen girl. ADJD is a lightweight who does what he’s told. They probably let him fire the track coach. When it comes to big negotiations he drives the big guys around and makes sure everybody has a beverage. Imho
I was going to get a pint of lagniappe but got a hazy IPA instead.I believe that combination of factors: DFW and ease of access/egress, and the ability to showcase themselves in Texas with all the carriage fees and other lagniappe to go along with it make TCU an attractive potential addition.

I'm hoping ADJD had an Old Style in it's natural habitat...
TCU is more deserving, a more storied program, and better ACADEMICS versus UT-Prairie.If the B1G does expand to TX I think it would be the Frogs because of airport access. That would drive the folks from Tech crazy. They have a ton of alumni here in DFW but their sports are played in Lubbock.
Among other things. Of course I want the best for everyone. Sonny hasn’t done squat in his career compared to GP. If letting the punter and the 3rd receiver hold press conferences is the answer then we’ll soon see.You also thought we should give Gary another 10 years just because we beat Texas.
I doubt airport access is a deciding factor for the Big Ten.If the B1G does expand to TX I think it would be the Frogs because of airport access. That would drive the folks from Tech crazy. They have a ton of alumni here in DFW but their sports are played in Lubbock.
Something tells me this will be a very, very interesting week...Poster on 247 is claiming inside source has told him Frogs are in continuous talks with the Big 10 currently and they aren’t an afterthought in this whatsoever
As I suggested earlier, if the Big Ten is now ready to add more schools, after getting their media rights contract done, then they might prefer making the announcement before the season begins rather than during it. Or wait till after the season. But by waiting, you risk credible leaks coming out during the season which they might want to avoid. Then again, any announcement this week may have domino effects with the PAC and Big 12 which roll into the season anyway. Then again, maybe the Big Ten doesn‘t care about disrupting the leftovers.Something tells me this will be a very, very interesting week...
A couple of sports stations in Chicago have discussed numerous schools visiting Chicago. They’re presumed to be delivering their membership pitches in person, but who knows.Poster on 247 is claiming inside source has told him Frogs are in continuous talks with the Big 10 currently and they aren’t an afterthought in this whatsoever
If TCU is added to the B10 then it will be as part of the long-rumored P5 division. I foresee eventually two conferences...BIG and SEC with 24-30 teams each and the Champs of both playing for a national championship.
That makes sense to me. @Nick Danger made that point in early July. TCU would then be unique in DFW and the entire state. More of DFW and Texas would tune in because TCU would be matching up with the B1G and representing Texas. I, and I think most, would be excited about TCU matching up against B1G state flagships every week. The travel is what I do not like.A friend of mine said the Score820 even mentioned TCU & Houston possibilities. The radio station claimed that if those 2 schools were in the B10, they would own a significantly bigger piece of their markets than they do today.
