Better call BYU and Louisville. Or Colorado State.
If this is happening, and it looks like it is, we'd better do something.
Of course, based on last year, it'll only take a day or two to sort out everything that does or doesn't happen.

I don't think this is about First Tier rights. This is more about the Aggies Ego more than anything else.
If someone can show me that Houston brings more revenue to the conference than they would take I might soften my stance, but I see no way they bring revenue. That market is already tapped.
Only expand if adds revenue. otherwise stay at 9. expanding doesn't = stability. money and happy = stability.
My girlfriend (now wife) and I went to the game two years ago and although the traditions are cool at first they get annoying and the yell leaders are creepy.
Had a conversation with a girl in front of us who asked me why we were in their Conference, I informed her that they joined our conference. Than she asked if I rooted for the Hawkeyes and I said no and she responded "Oh I cheer for all the Texas teams except for UT, Baylor, and Tech" Well I am sure North Texas appreciates your support...

A&M to SEC is a done deal per Aggieyell.com
Apparently all of the smoke was due to a very real fire. Aggieyell.com is reporting that the SEC has extended an offer, and the Aggies have accepted it.
Texas A&M Football Basketball and Recruiting: AggieYell.com has a headline "Goodbye Big 12" running currently.
This is a death blow to the Big 12.

calm down. it ain't over until Texas and OU say its over.

If aTm is gone and the conference feels a dire need to expand back to 10 then why wouldn't BYU be your first option rather than a lesser Texas team. Makes me wonder if BYU was ever really in the equation.
If we add a Texas school it pretty much tells you how much power the collective of everyone except Texas has....zero. Which we already know.

If they weren't, they should have been.
If BYU isn't included in the planning, somebody is planning something stupid.
Going to be an interesting evening on the Webtubes tonight.
No, because then that would be helping Texas get even more money. While Texas doesn't even need that money anyway, I'm sure that the folks at aTm would want to stick it to them regardless. Just a meaningless ego trip on that front.
However, I won't buy this until it's OFFICIAL:
1. Message boards have a predominant tendency to initiate/spread baseless rumors.
2. It's a PAY site, that has an economic incentive to say such things.
Everybody just needs to keep calm, nothing has happened yet. It's not like there were "strong" rumors of Texas, OU, OSU, aTm, Colorado, and TT going to the Pac-10 last summer......oh wait.
Last year the rumor was that Arkansas was very interested in leaving the SEC and joining the Big 12. Of course it's speculation but why aren't we going after the SEC. They would be a great fit. This conference will never live long term if we don't add 3 more teams.
