AP: TCU proving it was a good choice for maybe-expanding Big 12

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — With the Big 12 considering expansion, TCU coach Gary Patterson knows what he believes should be expected of potential additions.

“It’s not the conference’s job to make that university better,” Patterson said. “It’s the university’s job to make the conference better, whether it’s in football, academics or whatever it is.”

Much like what Patterson feels the Horned Frogs have done, proving themselves a “good choice” since TCU and West Virginia were brought into the Big 12 four years ago when Missouri and Texas A&M bolted for the SEC.

When left out of the original Big 12 lineup in 1996, TCU went on to win championships in the WAC, Conference USA and Mountain West. Now transitioned into the Power Five conference, the Frogs are 23-3 the past two seasons with a share of the 2014 Big 12 title.
