While acknowledging a gripe with SEC "procedural matters," Texas A&M athletic director Ross Bjork avers that the conference "is in the best position to lead in this transformative time in college athletics.”
Texas A&MUniversity | Mark Guerrero


COLLEGE STATION — Texas A&M has no intention of trying to block the Southeastern Conference from admitting Texas and Oklahoma. The Aggies also have no intention of trusting the SEC again.

The Aggies, multiple A&M insiders have revealed in recent days, learned a valuable lesson from the past week, and it will serve as a three-word mantra moving forward: “Trust no one.”

A&M, the insiders offered, was blindsided by Wednesday’s bombshell news that UT and OU intend to exit the Big 12 and enter the SEC. Whether that’s as early as 2022 or as late as 2025 is to be determined.

The rest of us are so tired of the drama from both of you. Neither Texas school deserves to be in our conference, but here we are.

Bjork knew what was happening. That's why he was at Media Days.

He basically admitted as such when asked. "I wasn't expecting to have to address this, but..."

12th Men played.

I get that.
I’m tired of it too.
I think the thread title was pretty self explanatory tho; no need to click if you’re not interested.

The vote will be 14-0 then. The only thing to know here is that the leak came out early. Had UTw/OU made their announcement monday with no leak, then the ADs would have been informed at that time of the negotiations. And a lot of acrimony of the unprepared might not have happened.

Just getting started. I dont care what kind of bs is thrown around here but you crossed the line. If you aren’t man enough to admit it, that’s on you.
