On behalf of all SEC fans, I’d like to kick Greg Sankey square in the nuts for letting in all of these SWC douche bags.

Hell or the egg bowl even when both teams aren’t very good. Went in 2000 in the rain. Even though it wasn’t full Oxford was fun and those 2 teams hate each other.

cajunmud•12 months

Shhh...you can't say that.

If you can't call it the "Red River Shootout" then stop trying to pump your chest about it. It's a cool experience with the fair background, but it's not the typical fun party experience like a great SEC game. Game day experience for a regular big SEC games is just as good.

utx/ou aren't use to there being so many big time games as their one big game was the only one the big12 had. These teams are truly not going to be happy with other fanbases not thinking they are the bees knees.

UT may win 5 and Oklahoma 6 SEC games this year. They will spend the next 2 - 3 years "building" for the level of SEC competition. The UT President will be at a Division 3 school by 2026.

Texas will be the new Alabama. They have more talent than anyone and no SEC school can compete with their NIL collectives.

UGATiger26•12 months

You'll have to explain to us how - since Texas has "more than talent than anyone" - that TCU managed to make the CFP before UT has.

CanebreakCajun•12 months

They've had more talent for 50 years and have 1 national title. They have had more talent than anyone and won a total of 3 Big 12 titles.

In the big 12 you thought you were special, but in the sec you’re just another date on the calendar. This transition looks like it’s gonna be pretty difficult for a lot of these folks.

Warwick•12 months

does he always sound like that or was he hittin the sauce ?

baytiger11•12 months

Dude definitely woke up and poured him a stiff one

stuckintexas•12 months

I've been to several TX-OU games. They're fun, even for people who aren't fans of either team, but the best rivalry in the conference? That's a negative. The only thing he's right about is that it's the newest in the conference.

CanebreakCajun•12 months

I went to UT for grad school. Like you said, it's fun, but it can't touch the crowd and noise at LSU/Bama or even LSU/Auburn or LSU/Florida.

grizzlylongcut•12 months

Well that’s to be expected. Half the stadium is in orange and half the stadium is in red.

JackieTreehorn•12 months

frick Texas and take A&M with you. And grab Missouri and Oklahoma on the way out the door.

uaslick•12 months

Oh no! Not SHADE! Someone is going to get seriously hurt one day doing this.

Did he form and complete a single successful sentence in that entire interview?

Honestly should make you all feel inspired to know that you don’t have to be a very sharp cookie and you could still end up running one of the biggest athletic departments on the planet.

gamecockman12•12 months

He seems drunk to me.

Shade him all you want he's a great AD

HoustonGumbeauxGuy•12 months

He is the AD of a university desperate for national titles which also has unlimited funds of some desperate donors. That does not make him a good AD, that makes him a lucky AD.
