Cougar fan cheering on from above.
I hope you and your family are comforted through all of this. And, I've always found when things are at there worst, a little lightheartedness always helps, so in that spirit, can you do us all a favor, and when you get up there, inquire about the expected timing of a Big12 invite?
But in all seriousness, God bless, and Go Cougs!
