Acting upon a unanimous recommendation of its expansion subcommittee, the Big 12 Conference Board of Directors has authorized negotiations with Texas Christian University to become the Conference's 10th member, and instructed interim commissioner Chuck Neinas to immediately begin discussions with TCU.

The action of the Board was without dissent. On the advice of legal counsel, The University of Missouri did not participate in the vote.

With that statement, the Big 12 essentially unzipped their fly. They don't issue that statement unless its a done deal.

Response from Boschini...

"These discussions with the Big 12 have huge implications for TCU. It will allow us to return to old rivalries, something our fans and others have been advocating for many years. As always, we must consider what’s best for TCU and our student-athletes in this ever-changing landscape of collegiate athletics. We look forward to continuing these discussions with the Big 12."

I wonder if Missouri not voting helped us? I know the Northern schools weren't as gung ho about TCU.

Perhaps Missouri was a vote for BYU and when it was obvious they wouldn't be voting anytime soon... that was our opening?

I never thought I would be this happy to get an invite to the Big 12. This is indeed a fantastic time to be a FROG.
