Looks like TCU is jumping to the Big East.  This really opens a lot of questions, especially given the fall of the big east as a competitive AQ school, and also that they may be in trouble if more realignment happens.  I think they are just trying to be proactive and attempt to avoid destruction.  But if the big east still ends up gone in a few years, that really sucks for TCU.

Yeah, BIG mistake on TCU's part, especially the football program considering they want to break the BCS cycle for the "little guys". The big east doesn't produce competitors and pros, so they are no better off. O_o

yeah, honestly, they got more respect as a title contender in the MWC than they will in the big east.  While now it will be easier to get to just any bcs game as the big east automatic bid, I don't think it changed their chances of getting to the title game.  And all of this is predicated upon the big east actually keeping their bcs bid at the next round of conference evaluations by the bcs.

What a chickenshìt move by TCU, IMO.  The only reason they would join the big LEast is so they would have any easy path to BCS bowls.  They know they wouldn't compete annually in any other BCS conference.

Now Pitt and 'Cuse are headed to the ACC.  Possibly UConn and Rutgers to follow?

Its become such a parody. What do these guys do on weekends?

"Hey man what are you up to?"

"Ah nothing, just packing up and moving to ACC."

"Sweet! Can we come too?!"

"Sure, why not?"

All of this is just annoying. I didn't mind the Pac-12 being formed and Nebraska going to the B1G but this just getting ridiculous.

Nah, IBU, I think we all knew once the first domino fell that we would be eventually looking at 4 16-team conferences.  It was inevitable.

I laughed also since Texas think they are king of the world and they can get or do anything they want

yeah, they may have screwed themselves with the longhorn network and find themselves out in the cold when the realignment dust settles.
