Geez, if ever there was more conformation Dodds needed to be put out to pasture. Not b/c they eventually went with TCU when it would have made better sense to get Louisville or Cincy to give WVU a travel partner but b/c DeLoss was so out of the loop he didn't even know TCUs ADs name nor could he be bothered to do a quick info check before he talked to the guy after making him wait several hours outside his office.
You would think the AD at Texas should know the names of every other Texas based FBS and FCS AD in the state he had worked in for 30+ fricking years.

What I love about it is that OU declares "We will not be a wallflower" and then not only did they get rejected to the point they ran out of options, but they didn't even have enough power IN conference to get the correct choice at 12 (Louisville).
We are all enjoying the fallout at Texas, but they are not the real story. Long-term they are fine, even if they have to leave the Big 12 to get to a better place.
Who is REALLY REALLY getting screwed in all this is OU, and the only thing they can do about it (actually win on the field ALA Bama game) isn't enough because college football is a beauty contest.
OU has found a lifeline living on their historical reputation on the west coast. But instate they are nearly sunk, and the RRR isn't a top 10 game every year anymore.
I hate OU for stealing our birthright so at first I really enjoyed their misery about the situation (I used to love lurking on dickthieves). But now their pain is so intense that I get scared they might actually leave OSU to die and make a move.
Honestly once it had time to sink in I appreciated them beating Bama because maybe that will placate the Sooners for a few years. They can brag about winning the big battle as they lose the larger war.
