Without reading the thread (ain't nobody got time fo' dat ), lemme just say that among the myriad reasons for our SEC move, not waiting with bated breath for t.u. to hire a competent coach was a prime one. We kicked their arse before Mack in the 80s/early 90s, but one good hire by them was good enough to marginalize us because we had no brand differentiation. Now it doesn't matter as much because 1.) We don't play them, and 2.) We play in a better league that attracts better recruits on the regular.

That's why most of us were not even overly concerned if the sips had managed to lure Saban away from Bama.

They will get theres, we will get ours. They are not going to be able to do what they did to us in the 2000s

I was concerned with that.

Saban is such a brand, such a respected name, that his arrival would have raised the profile of the entire Big 12. The RRR would have gone from not being a top 10 game every year to being must-see-TV. OU, and Baylor and all the rest would have gotten a boost from Saban to Texas that would have hurt us.

Thank God their culture prevented the possibility of that happening (frick there is that politics thing again).
