When DeLoss Dodds invited TCU into his conference, he could not envision that his purple clad guests would become the supreme ruler over all things burnt orange.
The former Texas athletic director did so many good things for his beloved alma mater, but approving TCU into the Big 12 was his biggest mistake.
No one made more decisions that affected so many neighborhoods with as little disregard to any house but his own like DD. The Big 12 could not make any move without DD’s approval, and the inclusion of TCU into the conference has worked for the league, and been a disaster for UT.
