re: What was the Big XII like Missouri and Texas A&M fans?

Let's get one things straight here. OU had first chance at going to the SEC with A&M, At no point did they get told no by any conference but the PAC.

Are you sure? Until someone from the SEC and BigTen confirm this, I won't believe it. Even if it comes from your bipolar AD Castiglione.

We would have taken Oklahoma over ANY Texas school back then.

Everyone (in the Big-XII) then started to get politics involved. Then the whole process got weird.

Texas and Texas A&M got really weird after that as far as "laws" went.

Not our problem.

The whole situation cock-blocked us from getting Virginia Tech and N.C. State however.

Typical Texas "Drama-Queens".

Always have to be in the spotlight.

$$$ says otherwise.

We are VERY open to new schools however...so don't get too comfortable.

Who the frick is we, you carrying a mouse in your pocket? Do you even have a degree, fool?

Face it, aggy, by your metric, Pecker Tech (Lamar in Beaumont) would've added just as much value as aggy did. That Texas footprint, doe.

---

TV Ratings say otherwise. But if you seriously believe that Lamar would have commanded the same TV value as A&M, then I guess it's safe to assume you have never step foot in a college campus, let alone texas.

Let me guess, you became a fan in the summer of 2005 when Wally World had Longhorn shirt on sale???

We already had the money.

We were not suffering to begin with.

We were fine. Why do you think Texas A&M somehow changed this?

Your job, between adding Missouri and Texas A&M, was to enhance this conference regionally, and profitably.

You both have failed.

What the hell went on at Missouri? And why can't you keep your promise at A&M to be a good Football program?

Missouri still scares me with their way of doing things.

Why did they let that woman do what she did?

That would never happen in the deep "South."

I don't trust you Mid-Westerners.

Yes. B.S. Engineering.

How many more student are you going to allow into A&M over the next 5 years?

I need to know how much you are cheapening the market in our particular fields due to your University's "need to expand" to 60,000 by 2020. What a fricking joke.

You are fricking everyone else in the nation in the mean time by doing this.

Ever heard about a "cap"?

Your high school problems need to stay YOUR problems.

You just can't give every student in your State a pass to go to College...that's not how it works. Not everyone is awarded a degree.

Crying in the wrong place buddy. Why don't you go write a strongly worded letter to you school president for allowing expansion to happen instead of whining about it?

I don't see your school complaining about the money. If your school was "fine", then why doesn't it return the SEC network money to the conference so it can redistribute it to the rest of the schools. I'm sure Alabama, LSU, and Florida will find something useful to do with that extra money baw.

I think Florida was making $12 million a year on their third-tier telecasts on the Sunshine Network, then they took a pay cut to take you dweebs in (SEC payout anywhere from 5 to 7 million). I bet they regret that.

BUT, BUT... THERE ARE TRILLIONS OF AGGIES WORLDWIDE AND ALL OF TEXAS WATCHES AGGY, NO MATTER THE OPPONENT! Shiiiiiit.
