Good article on idea for MWC Expansion

I think this would be a GREAT idea. Yes it brings in 2 of 3 schools without baseball but we'd have a travel partner, a new market for the MWC and a VERY good football program, that will hopefully be sustained after the QB leaves this year.

So not play BYU or Utah every year so we can play UH or Colorado? No thanks. I'm just not a huge fan of expansion.

I've read better conjectural speculation written by some of the stupider posters on this board than this Bleacher Report blog.

And a blog on the Bleacher Report is almost never an "article"-- something researched and thought out. Just chatter.

Travel partner?

CU leaving the B12 for the MWC is as likely to happen as my pet basset hound walking on the moon.

CU is a hippie school. They smoke a lot of pot up there. Maybe they will be "stoned" on decision day!

Stupider? I'd go with "more stupid" in an attempt to sound less stupid. But that's just me.

The title was too stupid for me to even bother reading the "article."

Boise makes sense. Even potentially Houston. But the idea of CU leaving the B12 to join the MWC is a joke. They don't see AFA and CSU as natural rivals: they seem them as idiot cousins. See, e.g., West Virginia and Marshall; or UNC and ECU. Of course, CSU and AFA are better at football than CU, but as we already know, that is sadly beside the point!

I will never understand why any TCU fan would ever want to add UH to the MWC. We are currently the sole Texas school in the MWC, which puts us in an advantageous position in recruiting and in a unique marketing position vs. the SMU's, Rice's and UH's in CUSA. Why would anyone want to water down that obvious advantage? In that scenario, UH wins, we lose.

Yes, it's worth your time to try sounding less stupid. :biggrin:
