This was a concession of his central point. If Texas gets "stuck" with Baylor and Tech against their will, then to an extent Baylor and Tech have wagged the dog. Is it that difficult for you to see and admit this instead of going into a bunch of double-speak?
You DID concede the central point. He of course wasn't arguing that Baylor or Tech were driving the train, just that if they get into whatever conference UT goes to against UT's wishes, they will have wielded quite a bit of power over UT, who - based on their athletic power - one would think SHOULD be able to go wherever they want and not be stuck with anybody.
Geez. Getting a lawyer to admit to anything seems like cruel work.
This isn't double-speak at all. Baylor and tech aren't dictating [Deleted]. I don't think Texas considers going to the Pac10 with tech and baylot as against their will. They want to have the same number of schools as CA. Again, Baylor and tech aren't wagging anything. They have NO say whatsoever in where Texas ends up. They are just praying they get to go with.
