quote:
And the SEC wasn’t enthralled with the Aggies back then, Schiller said.
Dodds, in 1990, told the Associated Press that however the dust settled on conference realignment, the Longhorns and Aggies “will be together” in a conference.
You left out this part, but I think this one quote explains a whole lot..
Dodds makes this quote saying the Longhorns & Aggies "will be together" almost as a rebuttal as to why we didn't leave the SWC for the SEC back in 1990. He is saying.. we aren't leaving Texas A&M..
And if this interpretation is true.. it explains a whole lot as to why Dodds was so bent out of shape when A&M left to go to the SEC..
Just my two cents.. I had never seen that quote before..

yeah, that is interesting. Dodds likely felt betrayed after going to bat for the Aggies back then.
That said, it was 2 decades later. I don't blame TAMU for making the move. It was a no brainer for them. IMO it all worked out very well in the end.
