re: This is why Mizzou and Texas A&M hates Texas

Everybody cheated back then and that especially included Texas. Texas just was pissed that everyone else was playing the same game and they were starting to lose. Hell the NCAA finally had to even give Texas the slightest of slaps on the wrist in the '80s for doing so.

That's all really just a distraction from the fact Texas has always only wanted to play in a conference that they dominated in every way. The concept of equality and working together simply doesn't compute. The only purpose any other school has is to serve them. They are horrific business partners and leaving them is the best thing to ever happen to A&M, most recently evidenced by how A&M surpassed them in AD revenue to take over the #1 spot nationally at $194 million.

The Big 12 now only stays together because no one can leave. The only schools that would have any chance of another conference wanting them (Texas, OU, and Kansas) are all stuck because now they are tied to their weaker public schools in their respective states that would fall out of the Power 5 if the Big 12 broke up. Politically they can't leave them now. The 4 schools that could leave have all gone.

The funniest thing to me was DeLoss Dodds sealed your fate through his arrogance. He came out and publicly stated that as long as Texas was there the Big 12 was viable. What he didn't think about was how he put handcuffs on your school while giving A&M its freedom to leave by destroying the only argument that could be used against A&M politically to force us to stay in the Big Dumpster Fire.

So enjoy your pathetic existence in the disaster that is the Big 12 (with 10 teams) that you created. We will continue to laugh at you as you suffer through another failed coaching hire and we just snap our fingers and take Jimbo Fisher from FSU. I will never get tired of watching Texas suffer.
