Sec does want tech. Virginia tech.
Don't start in with roddog, punk. He's sitting at the big boy table. Talking about big boy things. Eating with forks and knives, and no sippy cups.

Aggies will have a Tech problem?It's probably a packaged deal with Tech. They're so hot right now.
We need to care. If A$M goes to SEC and they take an ACC school, then ACC may raid Big East for more than one team to go 14. This would really hurt Big East and our plans.
That was very 2314 of you.go hijack a big east thread punk, this is for big boy talk
Just received a phone call from a source that has been very reliable in the past. I was told that A&M will make an announcement that they will leave the Big 12 and join SEC some time before September 1st. So much for waiting until the spring. I assumed the timetable would be pushed up because with the mainstream media coverage something was going to have to happen sooner rather than later. This is the first time I have been given a date. Received an e-mail from a friend who has good sources inside the state capital. There will be no roadblocks from the state legislature to A&M joining the SEC. To be frank, the legislature will not be in session until after the election and they have more important things to worry about anyways. The governor is on board with A&M joining the SEC and even if he was not, he is too busy with preparing for a run at the presidency to worry about collegiate athletics.
Evidently tu has tried to convince the other schools in the Big 12 to keep this thing together after A&M leaves. They promised to share revenue from the LHN while they find someone to replace A&M. Texas Tech told them in no uncertain terms that Tech would not be sticking around once A&M left. Tech was not too happy with tu and ESPN's attempt to strong arm them into letting the LHN televise the Tech-tu game. I expect Tech, OU, and OSU to join the PAC 12. Now you are all as up to date as I am. I expect Chip Brown to tweet all this information in about four weeks since that appears to be his M.O.
Dont worry too much about ACC stealing BIG EAST teams. ACC currently pays each team about $ 12 million per team. The new BIG EAST deal is rumored to be a possible $20 mil per team. The terror of ACC stealing BIG EAST teams is waaaaay waaaay overplayed. Not sure any BIG EAST team would go - particularly if KANSAS and MIZZOU and KANSAS ST come aboard. Those three might put the BIG EAST per team revenue somewhere north of $22 million per team.
It wouldn't surprise me to seeDoddsBeebe replace A&M with UofH - but the Big 12 is still just a house of cards.
Oh, jeez... You're AGGIEANGST, TOO, AREN'T YOU???heard the houston rumor as well, also heard from some ut blowhards that if anm leaves they will court notre dame into starting a premier conference with whats left of the big 12
also heard that talks were still ongoing with tech, ut, ou and xerox state still going to the pac 10
by rumors do you have links or is it just the voices inside of your head

Roddog, with all of the arguing, finger pointing, name calling, and etc. aside. What do you really think will happen to Tech & the Big12-10 if A&M does leave the conference? Not starting an argument, just a curious observeration.
