Stoops takes a jab at Aggies and Mizzou

Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops had some interesting things to say when addressing the media, including this not-so-subtle shot at outgoing Big 12 members Texas A&M and Missouri… “When you look at what these guys [West Virginia, TCU] have done, we are bringing in two ranked teams at the end of the year and the two that left [Texas A&M, Missouri] I don’t know that they were,” Stoops said. “I can’t remember.”
I guess he forgot how WV was taken to the wood shed by SEC teams, much like Big 12 teams usually are.

fricks given about what Stoops has to say = 0

Honestly though, what would you expect him to say? The Okies wanted to make a move but were bitch slapped back to Bevo's teet by the Pac-12. He's gotta try to save as much face as possible.

Aside from TV markets, the Big12 upgraded.
TCU>A&m
WVU>mizzou
TCU>A&m
WVU>mizzou

Stoops is a friggn' blowhard, but I agree that Mizzou and aTm is like adding clones of the 2 Mississippi teams .

What a passive aggressive tool

I have no problems with this. He wants the B12 to be seen as a strong league so OU isn't jumped in the polls come BCSNCG time.
He's wrong. But it wasn't a shot at Mizzou and A&M personally IMO

Much ado about nothing,similar to Les' "chest" comment Stoops was preaching to the choir, the media are paid trolls, making a big deal out of nothing in order to put food on the table

Did he get Mack Brown's permission to say that?

TCU will eventually become a middle of the road team in the Big 12. They sucked in the SWC and they will be nothing special in the Big 12.

All Stoops is doing is getting the lobbying going early, trying to state that the Big 12 is still a legit conference, so when its BCS time, his team will get a few more points.
He doesn't necessarily believe what he is saying. He is saying it to help OU.

West Virginia actually has a winning record against the SEC while Texas A&M is 58-80 all-time against the SEC. Furthermore, TCU has won the same number of BCS bowl games as the number of bowl games Texas A&M has won over the last 15 years. Stoops is right. In recent years, West Virginia and TCU have been better football programs than Texas A&M and Missouri. More BCS bowl wins, more top 5 finishes, more top 10 finishes, etc....

When was the last time Stoops and Oklahoma won a national championship? I can't remember.

TCU and WV have had the benefit of being in weaker conferences. I will bet that they both will be average in the Big 12, behind Texas, Oklahoma, OSU.
