The Cougars timing could not have been better.

Chuck Carlton‏@ChuckCarltonDMN @fullergary That's a great question. I don't have a great answer. Bill Bryan ‏@billbryan1953 · 41m41 minutes ago @ChuckCarltonDMN so is membership based solely on a football score or the complete academic/athletic package a school offers? Chuck Carlton‏@ChuckCarltonDMN @billbryan1953 Timing is everything. And if you're in a good position (like Houston) and do this, it surely helps. Bill Bryan ‏@billbryan1953 · 34m34 minutes ago @ChuckCarltonDMN I might have agreed if the B12 wasn't dragging their feet. Isn't that how/why TCU is now a member? Other factors matter. Chuck Carlton ‏@ChuckCarltonDMN · 33m33 minutes ago @billbryan1953 True. But Houston was probably one of the top three before today. If nothing else, this doesn't hurt the cause. [/QUOTE]
