Texas and Oklahoma will grow stronger as Texas A&M grows weaker.

Discuss.

I think Texas will grow stronger; but that’s because I think , like Lane, Sark has figured out what’s important to him now.

I think the move, while monetarily will be great; on field success will be difficult for OU. The years of owning the conference are over; they will be a 2nd tier team in the SEC.

While Texas AM is all about their “culture”. That is the thing Elko needs to change the most. A&M is historically more about holding to their culture than winning games. That has to change or nothing will.

I'll claim some damage. State next year doesn't even play 3 teams its played for as long as I can remember; LSU, Alabama and Auburn. Screw Oklahoma and Texas and covered wagon and cow they road in on.

I don't know about weaker...they have already proven that recruiting at a high level didn't improve their lot in life.

They are historically insignificant in CFB. The GOAT Coach of all time couldn't win at a high level at ATM. Their arrogance knows no bounds...they thumbed their noses at Stoops and pretend that Duke's coach is Saban in waiting. No outside influence can harm them as bad as they harm themselves...

A&M's success or failure will be independent of tu and OU.

The biggest loser in the 2012 expansion was Arkansas. The biggest loser will remain Arkansas in the new expansion.

Arkansas had one competitive advantage over the Mississippi schools and it was money prior to A&M and Missouri. That changed with the expansion money.

Arkansas has been Vanderbilt level bad since 2012. I don't see that changing.

A&M will stay middle of the pack where they have always been.

I think with more SEC focus aimed west towards TX/OK will result in those schools getting stronger.

The 10 schools before expansion started are going to be the ones taking it on the chin. We never needed these schools - they needed us. Now they're in and we're all going to suffer for it.

The schools responsible for fricking up the Southwest Conference and the Big XII were looking for fresh meat and we just served it up like a bunch of retards.

Winners are Texas and A&M. Lossers are the rest of the SEC. Less recruits are going to leave the state of Texas for other SEC schools.

A&M is basically in the same boat.

Their odds of winning a conference title dropped slightly but they were pretty close to 0 already.

The only difference is big brother is back to torment them and trigger them into excess stupidity all while playing the victim.

The biggest loser is the SEC. It was a mistake adding OU and Texas. Thankfully, the egos and arrogance won’t get them far.

I don't get what recruit would ever choose A&M over Texas if they have the ability to go. Plus Texas A&M is an Adidas school.

"Putting the Aggies and Adidas together was a no-brainer for both entities. “The thing about Adidas is they like to go after premier properties, and go on the high end,” said Director of Athletics Ross Bjork. “That's where we are at A&M. We're a premier property.”

I dont know why this quote makes me laugh so much, wonder if Ross Bjork ever asked 18 year old athletes if they prefer nike over adidas haha

The biggest losers are Texas and Oklahoma.

The mythological, fan perception of elite-ness is in trouble.
