but the Big 12 is still going to be one of the Big 4 conferences when all is said and done.
Actually, they won't. The writing is already on the wall that the conferences who will be left behind are the ones without a CCG.
Four conferences got 2 teams each into the BCS:
ACC, SEC, B1G, PAC 12. All had CCGs.

Lots of interesting (and predictable) responses, however, the OP said nothing about AAU, Academics, Fan Base, Brands, Potential, or any of that other crap. What I am talking about is performance on the field. And I don't care about 20 years ago, but am looking at recent history (since 2000).
TCU: BCS Bowls - 2 (1-1)
Wva: BCS Bowls - 3 (3-0)
Mizzou: BCS Bowls - 0
A&M: BCS Bowls - 0
In terms of performance on the field, the evidence is clear that adding TCU & West Virginia to the Big 12 has made it a stronger football conference. I'll even go 1 step further - Either TCU or WVa is better than either A&M & Mizzou in football. The Big 12 just became a better football conference.
Now you can argue all you want about potential and all that other stuff. Potential just means that you haven't done it yet.
