Name 3 city schools that have had sustained success in the last quarter century.

Agreed. Regionally and competitively it's the only conference that makes sense but it's by far the best choice for Kansas to stay in the Big 12(10).

Does USC count as a city school?

If they're struggling in the Big East, they're not going to "do very well" in the Big XII. They'll be behind OU, Texas, Mizzou, OSU, and probably even KSU and TTU. A move to the Big XII wont really help them in recruiting. They're in Big-10 country, if anything.

WVU gets better recruits and nearly 3x as many tv sets as TCU.

That "massive" LMAO tier 2 deal was with A&M and Mizzou in tow.

Columbus and Louisville are roughly the same size so if Louisville counts as a "city" then I would say Ohio State has had success.

Only if UCLA does...

(So no, no it does not)

City Schools tend to be pretty lousy with a few spurts of decent play in between, especially in football. They simply can't come up with the resources to run with the big dogs with any regularity.

Louisville will have a few nice years here and there, but they're not going to be any kind of sleeping giant. If Corso actually said that, then you know it's wrong because Corso is pretty much a blathering idiot.

You are just so very unintelligent.

My god, you are a dumbass. Please refrain from posting in this thread.

My point is that Dallas is a better recruiting hotbed than West Virginia. I know they must have produced some football players but I'm thinking they get most from Pennsylvania than from West Virginia. What is West Virginia's population compared to Dallas/Ft Worth?

You're ****ing nuts if you think they recruit better than TCU. TCU is competing with OU and Texas for recruits now. Now, they do beat us on tv sets.

The U.

o:-)

Mizzou is not at all a big reason for these huge football contracts. OU and Texas are driving those numbers. TA&M is not exactly a compelling powerhouse, either.
