      P12 folks are lusty for UH and SMU due to market size. Pretty short sighted. I know 3x LSU fans in Houston than UH fans. I can’t speak for SMU fans in dfw, but I know several alums, all root for other teams.

          It would be crazy to add those to the schools. No way they are additive in terms of revenue, prestige, or anything else.

            Yes. This is why they need to do it anyway.

              But SMU brings the Dallas market and Texas recruiting…
              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                  Don’t get me wrong. I hope they do it, but it is a really dumb idea.

                    Maybe it's about getting TV game times in the Central Time Zone?

                    Backfilling USC and UCLA with SMU and SDSU? Dang.

                    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                                Yes, the Princeton of the South. I think they have less students than my kids' high school. Great school. I can't remember the last time they were bowl eligible, however.
