I don't really agree. The only reason they are in their current position is because of Mack. I know you are an ATM fan, and want to hang onto this direct success against Texas for as long as possible, but it's only a matter of time before they catch ATM in recruiting. Playing in the Big 12 gives them a much easier path to on field success and with ATM likely having a mediocre year this coming season, it will help Texas out a good bit. I don't think I'm wrong to say Texas has been ahead of ATM as far as programs go for many years, and it isn't far fetched to believe that they will regain that edge in a respectable timeframe. I'm pulling for ATM to be even more successful against Texas, but IMO this is just a short stint for ATM.

Sure, if they had a staff ready to take advantage of that success.
Briles at Texas? I would be scared. He could win a few 100+ point shootouts.
Strong at Texas? Time to watch another defense coach lose a few boat races a year in the Big 12 (and eventually his job).
Until/Unless Chavis finds a way into the league, the Big 12 will remain as an approximation of arena football.
TCU brought one of the beat defensive coaches in the country to the conference and it has eaten him alive. The Big 12 is ruined for playing D, and Strong's offense that we have seen so far sucks far too much to keep up with a Baylor.
