I wouldn't actually be saying there are no worthy opponents in the Big East when WVU only goes 4-2 in conference play, with UConn about to be your Big East champion if they beat South Florida. Though I am still not sure if I agree with this. Adding TCU is going to make for some long ass trips. TCU to everyone, Syracuse/Rutgers/UConn the farthest out of everyone there now in trips to TCU, etc. It's a good pickup football team wise. I don't know enough about TCU's other sports to know if it's a good move. Travel-wise, I'm more convinced that it's a bad move in those regards.

And poor Boise State. You go from the WAC to WAC Jr. With TCU leaving for the Big East, Utah bailing for the Pac 10, BYU going indy, basically all Boise State is doing is trading some WAC bottom feeders for some MWC bottom feeders with Nevada/Fresno tagging along from the WAC and Air Force and San Diego State making some decent opponents.
