OU belongs in the SEC, I'm from the south and lived in Oklahoma, it'd be a good fit.

Get with the program before Charlotte Sooner lets you know
We are better than the SEC. UT and OU deserves a conference that values academics first.

Which is why you refuse to join a conference in which you're not the most highly rated school...as in every conference but the Big 12.

Is that why you added West Virginia when Aggie and Mizzou left?

Research the history of Fort Sill, OK The US Army created a huge army base in Oklahoma to deal with the Commache Along with the Texas Rangers pretty much wiped the fight out of one of the most fearsome tribe on the Plains It wasn't even until the early 20th century that they finally defeated the Commache when Quanah Parker was killed I grew up just west of Wichita Falls, Tx and the war with the Commache is pretty much our forklore
This is all correct and a big part of why I laugh when people try to claim TX is "Southern". It's not. It's Western. So is Oklahoma, only Oklahoma has a strong native American presence and heritage. It's not "the midwest". It's literally Cowboys and Indians.

False.
The only people who want the Big 12 to die are certain fans of Texas and OU who are getting tired of the shite home schedule every year.
Everyone else is happy with the Big 12 as it is.

Not really.
Keep telling yourself this and maybe even you will believe your bullshite
No one at UT wants to jump conferences.
Why would UT give up their third tier rights
Only people who want UT to give this up is ESPN
Why do you think ESPN is conducting a campaign to kill off the Big XII.
UT thinks ahead of most universities in regards to selling their product and why would we want to change this unless we have to
According to the numbers in 2016 when UT was down in pretty much all sports we still made more money than everyone

More proof is the recent presidential primaries
Ted Cruz won the Texas and Oklahoma primaries and did very well in Louisiana parishes close to Texas as well as Southern Arkansas
No other "Southern" state did Ted Cruz win with Trump winning every state in the South during the primary

Population of North Carolina is 10 million , Virginia almost 9 million. Oklahoma 3.5 million.
The money is in tv markets so we don't need Oklahoma at all. It would be the smallest market in the SEC.

Google anyone
Mississippi population 2.992 million
Even if OU wanted to play in a conference beneath them
I have said before and I will say again if OU and UT decide to blow up the Big XII
The following choices of conference affiliation
1. BIG
2. PAC 12
3. ACC
4. Conference USA
5. Mountain West
6. Southland
7. SEC

That's got frickall to do with TV markets now doesn't it?
Posted on 6/15/17 at 5:14 pm to CharlotteSooner
Has everything to do with tv money

"Founding membership" has precisely dick to do with TV markets if your state has 2.99 million people. A shite TV market is a shite TV market regardless of whether you founded a conference or not. Nice try tho....

Founding members don't get kicked out in order to accommodate others in this conference.
In fact, the only school to be kicked out of a major conference pretty much ever was Temple being kicked out of the Big East.

Founding members were already in the SEC before tv markets were a thing. I'm sorry your state only has 3 million people. You are not worthy
