This should help tide you over until Boomer brings his real sources. Tweets from Travis Haney, reporter for the Oklahoman.
Yep, that's what he said. By chance, I just happened to hear him say it on his call-in show while scanning the sat radio. Almost got the feeling that he knows something really big is going to happen and he was reassuring the OU fanbase that OU will be just fine. If I didn't know better, I would say they are off to the Pac-16.![]()
Texas A&M would prefer to leave the Big 12 and have an announcement about joining the SEC before this season starts to aid with scheduling concerns and to allow the Big 12 to begin the process of adding a replacement, the source told Schad. But it is possible that process could last until the second week of Texas A&M's season, which is a bye week.
Adding one school, at least to start with, is the most likely scenario. The Big 12 has interest in Notre Dame, Arkansas, BYU or TCU, a source within the conference confirmed to Schad, though Notre Dame and Arkansas are considered unlikely.

Didn't know TCU was in the mix...Wonder if we'll be looking at this thread for another 2 weeks?
I really could see A&M holding off until early next week since it is a bye week for them IIRC. Try to keep the focus on this weekend's game.
Good job! That is exactly what I was trying to do... Post some stupid opinion like OU is bolting for pac12. Of course they aren't but it may get some conversation going.
That's what you were doing, right?
Hmmm. What is the holdup? TAM has been planning the conspiracy for a year. Are they getting cold tammy feet? Can they pay their bills in the end? Are they going to regret it after the end of the season? Does the SEC really want them or were they after someone else all along? Were they just jerking Tammy's chain? If Alabama gets less money, why do they need TAM? Maybe the threat of lawsuit after the Fox contract going kaput is a huge deterrent. Maybe TAM and SEC could be sued for a couple hundred million. That is why we cannot add new members yet. Maybe those southern lawyers are cranking it up and smelling a tammy payday.
And this is why I haven't posted anything in about a year. One post stating what I heard and my personal thought and then someone jumps all over me. Whatever...

I saw some smoke on the Pac-16 earlier as well and that was my thought when Stoops talked about the championship game. Between BYU having several comments out there that indy is the way they feel they should go and are happy with it, plus OU starting to speak a bit differently about the situation you have to wonder if that isn't starting to creep back into the picture, regardless of how "committed" the other 9 schools are.
I'm going to laugh so hard if aggie is left out of the SEC and the Big 12. SO HARD.
