a football program can be successful with little to no fan base or support. See Stanford
Stanford actually has quite a bit of support financially and a much bigger fan base than TCU. Still, even to the extent that you could compare them, Stanford (and, in past years, Miami) is the exception, not the rule. Over the past 30 years, I'll bet that over 80% of teams finishing in the final top 25 rankings were also in the top 25-30 in home attendance. Of course, there's the chicken and the egg issue, but large fan bases and on-field success usually go hand in hand.

Correct t.u. can kill the Big 12 but they won't.....they want to keep the sipnetwork no matter what...and no conference will accept them without drastic changes to it which they won't accpet unless OU and OSU kill the conference.
