Blackballed by Stanford? I thought that was Baylor that Berkeley and Stanford opposed so vigorously.
I am talking about the first time in the 90's - Baylor was not on that move, it was just Texas and Texas A&M. By 2010 I think they gut Stanford to chill the first imd but it would not shock me if Cal and Stanford "chilled" the second time Larry Scott went back and that is why the PAC dropped expansion.

Facts:
The Pac-10 expansion attempt to include Texas was in June 2010.
Your facts are incorrect, the PAC move was first discussed when the B1G wanted to add Penn State and Notre Dame back in the late 1980's.

Do you have any proof of this?
Yes, but nothing that can be linked on the internet. Back in the old days it was face to face conversations and nobody was writing any of what was discussed down, I can assure you of that.

Good grief, Kentucky Mustangs, I'm talking about recently. And at that time it was Texas to the Pac, A&M to the SEC.
In fact, there was an A&M regent who was later convicted of a crime by using an A&M airplane to go to Baton Rouge for his son's graduation (Ross Margraves).
During that trial it was exposed that Aggy was the first one who wanted to blow up the Southwest Conference. However, it was Arkansas who pulled the trigger. Yet, somehow, Texas got blamed.
I can't wait until people start accusing DeLoss Dodds of being on the grassy knoll in Dallas when Kennedy was killed.
