I think Troy should try to join the Big East. I think they have out grown the Sun Belt Conference.

Yep Troy should at least give it a shot.

I didn't know TCU was on the East coast. I guess you learn something new everyday!

That had to be the saddest list of possible expansion members that I have ever seen! TCU would improve their football standings but that just doesn't seem like much of a fit location wise, money wise, and basketball wise. Adding Vilanova(know I spelled that wrong) for football would do nothing for them. The only that would save the big east would be to add the domers. They aren't any good at the moment but i got a feeling that their new coach will get them at least respectable if the admin will give him a little time.

Either way they need to take away the big east automatc BCS qualifying status away and fast. Hard to believe a school from that conference is going to be playing in a bcs game!
