and we were passed over then.
We were a better choice than TCU but we were passed over. We are the #1 team for any conference expanding right now.
I'm not saying it can't happen, but just because we are the best option doesn't mean it will happen. We've been screwed over like this before and it will probably happen again.
Nothing about us joining a P5 conference is a slam dunk because of our religious affiliation, Sunday Play, and TV needs.
Don't hold your breathe, but at the same time, don't lose all hope.
