Big East officials appear to accept the reality that TCU is gone

ESPN is reporting this morning that Big East officials are preparing for a world without TCU. The rumors have been rampant the last few weeks. In an interesting twist, TCU would probably dominate or certainly be an upper tier Big East football squad year in and year out. In the Big 12, they are probably relegated to a middle of the pack program behind OU, OSU, Texas and others. Nevertheless, the geographic fit is a no-brainer and as crazy as this sounds, the Big 12 is probably more stable than the Big East....though neither are anchored in anything resembling concrete these days.


The New York Times has their viewpoints on this as well.
