If they are convinced of anything it seems to be that dealing with Texas + Espn doing whatever the hell they think is good for Texas/LHN


I always love it when a Husker fan jumps in to tell me how Texas is destroying the Big 12. A&M had voted lock-step, 100% of the time, along with Texas and on every major issue in the Big 12 (revenue sharing, conf HQ location, conf title game location, etc). In fact, every conference member voted lock-step with Texas (even Colorado) on every vote. The Big 12 didn't have a Texas problem, it had a Nebraska problem.

Now, aggie is all in a lather about the network (which it has known was coming for years) and HS football games being broadcast on the network (which was announced in January, but nobody cared until the season got close) but a Husker is in no position to talk about single school networks since your own administration admitted that Nebraska was further along than Texas in developing its own network before you guys ran off to join the Big 10........and after losing 9 games in 10 tries to Texas, I do mean ran off......

So other than a pissing match between Neb and Tex, this pointless.

I think UT folks know that those around them are lookign for ways out. It'll work out best for everyone. UT can go independent, and continue to talk about how great they are to anyone that will listen, and on their own network, maybe someone will. And aTm can come play in the SEC and we'll have one more place to travel to away games. Seems like a winner to me.

You are a complete moron.

Nebraska wasn't looking into it's own network so it could strong arm the conference members in moving conference games on it to make it succeed nor would they have had the backing of the monopoly network player in CFB to help it do so. Nor would it have likely been in the business of publicizing high-school recruits games.

Texas fans act like everyone out there operates like Texas, they don't. Not every school believes they can or should constantly sh*t where they sleep for short term maximizing of dollars at the expense of everyone that is forced to associate with them.

If the big 12 problems were solely a Nebraska problem, you wouldn't be seeing this come up again a week after Nebraska is gone and roar into another rumor firestorm within a month.

Retard.
