Ditto!!!

Texas destroyed the SWC and the B12 and that's why Mizzou, Texas A&M, Colorado and Nebraska left the B12. They would want to replace the SEC Network with the Longhorn Network. They would also try to be the ones to determine how much money each school will get from the Longhorn Network.(There would be no more SEC Network)

OP you have it bass ackwards. Aggies decided we wanted to join the SEC. We are in the position of having adequate academic credentials to join any conference we want.

Everyone wants to be in the SEC. The conference could have had any schools they wanted with a handful of exceptions, notably the B1G and PAC schools.

We could’ve had any of those you listed, plus most if not all Big 12-2 schools. Hard to second guess the decision to go with A&M and Mizzou given that post-expansion, the SEC has seen unprecedented levels of both financial and on-the-field/court success.

The people who are paid to study this stuff and make recommendations obviously did some calculations that turned out to be spot-on.

We got the right two schools. The TV contacts speak for themselves.

The professionals and experts tasked with identifying the ideal candidates chose the right ones. Fan opinions don’t matter when the conference is experiencing historical success in so many different ways.

Be grateful for their contributions and stop complaining. I’d be hard-pressed to find any possible scenario that would have produced better results than we’re seeing now.

We wouldn't want to join you guys.

We'd like you guys to somehow piss off Arkansas and LSU so they'd come join us.

Adding Mizzou and A&M to the SEC increased its population footprint by 50%. Two programs, 50%. And the contract for TV more than doubled.

That means the SEC made perfect decisions based on data we will never see.

The longhorns are not a valued or wanted commodity anymore. The secret is out, deal with it.

We know we're valuable.

Don't really care if we're wanted.

Especially don't care if we aren't wanted by anyone with a huge chip on their shoulder.

I get that it’s fun to troll, but if we’re being serious, given a choice between the two, I take A&M 100/100 times.


Given any choice out west. I’d have taken Oklahoma.



And Missouri is an even bigger joke than aggy.

The sec is administering cash infusion CPR to Mizz and they still don’t care about football.

Don’t even try to explain to me how this fox got into the henhouse. It had to be absolute moonshot or something huge fell though.

Despite A&M being very respectable brand .. Each of you combined are barely worth half of Texas’ value.

In other words Texas is ten times more valuable than Missouri.

I agree because all we did is invite more Bama fans into the league with A&M. Atleast Texas fans would stand on their own even if their team sucked.

The SEC doesn't want your lame arse when they already have a footprint in Texas. Mizzou is a fairly big state with over 6 million people, again, another footprint in a populace state. You would never get in anyways because you wouldn't have the votes.
