re: Well A&M I guess your argument that Texas is scared to play you is shot to shite

The Big 12 got Oklahoma to stay by guaranteeing them the same minimum annual payout as Texas. Both minimum payouts are paid by taking miney away from the other 8 schools in the Big 12.

And even now, with all that. OU has regular season games that are not televised. They're on PPV like it's still 1993. Or only availabe by online stream. Because Texas wants their own channel instead of building one the whole conference can benefit from.

Texas is not a partner. They're a solo act, regardless of what conference they're in. OU's lot is thrown in with Texas because the Big 12 is the best they can do unless and until the OK legislature uncouples them from Okie St. So IMO they're making the best lemonade that can with the lemons they've been given by their government.

I have no problem at all with OU joining the SEC BTW. I think they'd be a good culteral fit, a good partner, and be great competition for the SEC.

You are kind of all over the place with your arguments here which only makes you look way too desperate, it is kind of pitiful. I am going to argue each one individually.

OK do you think Texas is going to get a bigger payout than everyone else in the SEC? I can assure you they will not.

This argument is also moot. Every game is televised in the SEC. I have no idea how they will work out the Longhorn Network though. I would think it will now go away as it wasn't a big money maker IIRC.

I was told the same thing by A&M fans 10 years ago about the Texas legislature that they would never let A&M go to the SEC because it would hurt Texas.
