Texas Christian University has accepted an invitation to join the Big East Conference. An official announcement is expected some time later today.~Audible groan~ That's great for the Big East from a football perspective, I suppose, in terms of getting a highly ranked team. It's also great for TCU to join a BCS conference where they will likely dominate. However, it looks like a horrible fit geographically and I don't think does much of anything for the Big East in terms of basketball which, frankly, is all I really care about.
Well, I like the mascot, if nothing else, about this announcement.
