re: OU sold its soul for money

The original Big12 was awesome. So many great coaches, players, personalities, etc. In the 2000’s it kind of became footballs offensive laboratory. You had so many variations of offense and concepts. Towards the back end of its demise, it even birthed the Three High Safety that you see every Saturday now. Developed at Iowa State. Before A&M left to the SEC, you also never really seen Texas kids leave the Big12 foot print. It was cool watching underrated Dallas or Houston kids do big things at Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, etc. Once that Texas pipeline was tainted, it took those teams awhile to recover.
