And that really isn't an advantage. They don't have a big fan base there. You could argue that they would bring in subscription fees if the Big XII ever had its own TV network, but such a network would be included in the DFW footprint with or without TCU so that argument doesn't make any sense at all.

TCU has some incredible revenue streams

Tokolosh

4/20/10 9:42am

Then it isn't from sports? That would be

jwf

4/20/10 9:42am

True... but that means TCU is not...

Tokolosh

4/20/10 9:43am

They wouldn't help the big 12

jwf

4/20/10 9:46am

How not?

cougarick

4/20/10 9:47am

Those separate revenue streams support their...

Tokolosh

I'll restate...

Tokolosh

4/20/10 9:54am

ALRMCoug

If they are taking more from the conference

ALRMCoug

Say Utah Leaves and BSU is added

cgrs

4/20/10 9:36am

I don't think so

ALRMCoug

4/20/10 9:54am

So Utah is the source's info. TCU is his idea.

ALRMCoug

4/20/10 9:37am

rumor is UConn to Big 10

bluelands

4/20/10 9:44am

Consensus is Big 10 adding 3-5 teams

ALRMCoug

4/20/10 9:50am

Being in Texas, I don't see TCU in the Big 12
