Houston Chronicle: Texas, Oklahoma reach out to SEC about joining conference

[tcufootballjh98]

Cant wait for our conference showdowns again. It's long overdue.

If the 8 stay together, I would bet on TCU, Tech, Baylor and OK-State being very opposed to adding UH or SMU

agree

And no way Pac 12 takes the official school of the CPAC. A little to much to swallow

When I say he “knew,” I mean he had all the information I had x2, which included pretty loud whispers throughout the tv industry that ESPN was preparing a large move for the SEC and CFP. They effectively called TX/OU bluff on a procedural vote in April/May (can’t remember) about going into a negotiating posture, TX/OU voted no against the other 8, and at that moment he had more than enough to move.

Now, I’ll defend him a tad: He’s just the agent of the membership, has no power, and until those members turn on each other formally you can’t be their agent and turn on your clients. Still, he should have leaked it back then, because at least it would have given the league members time to build a resistance. With how it played out, we had no time.

OUT hid this from view (and would’ve liked even more time in hiding) because they wanted the TX lege not to be in session. Think what could’ve happened re school funding, conference realignment, NIL, and other items. scheiss OUT forever

its about eyeballs and prestige. And those four schools bring a hell of a lot more of both than Memphis or Houston or Cinci.

Pull up the numbers on that. You'll be very disappointed

We're gonna give TCU a big ole kiss when we're one conference again.

SMU is a total no-go. I could see the argument for UH, but would prefer not.

Your lead baseball assistant took a demotion to go to Purdue yesterday. PURDUE. That tells you all you need to know about UH.

If Baylor is picked over TCU for the PAC12, I think it will be due to TCU's lack of success in men's and women's basketball, volleyball, and not having a softball program.

Remember when BYU was denied admission because it’s a religious school and administration?

LULZ...

Dude is a Baylor homer. He also says baylor “is not a religious school.” Last I checked BU requires you to identify as Christian and makes freshmen attend chapel each week.

Between the two schools,

I can see them taking us only.

I can see them taking us both.

I can see them taking neither.

I cannot see them only taking a rural evangelical Baptist school that isn’t much bigger than us.

Big ten baseball is like being on a bass fishing team at MIT

how are you people giving clicks to a guy who has a place he hasn't worked in 20 years on his bio?

he has less than 100 followers and he is credible? there are people whose pets and various body parts not only have more followers, but are more credible

and? uh lists at just over 45K, look at the television market compared to houston, and do we want to compare success beyond football in other sports?
