re: What moron decided that Tulane should leave the SEC in 1966?

I think the geographic footprint, Tulane's AAU designation, and the television market will force the Big 12 into taking Tulane next year. There is a reason that Texas schedules games at the Superdome every couple of years and that's because it open up their recruiting base down here and their fans like to come to New Orleans. I don't think Tulane's inclusion into the Big 12 will have a substantial impact on recruiting for LSU but it could have a small impact or just enough of an impact to knock LSU out of the national championship title every year. Tulane & Big 12 are not good news for LSU.
