Didn't FCB say we were a lock for the Pac back in, what, 2011?

I’m sure the first Texas-Florida game will have a kick-ass tailgate party, and I look forward to buying you a drink or seven.

I look forward to playing you fucks twice every 4 years.

Does anybody have the link to aggy's embarrassing "Welcome to the SEC" video from back in the day? It's been washed from YouTube. Here's the parody UT students did as a reminder.

Larry Scott was terrible...
Even if Scott landed Texas, Tech, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State I don't know if that would have saved the Pac 12. USC, Texas and Oklahoma might still have developed wandering eyes for the conferences that take football seriously as opposed to the Pac 12, where they act like football success and non-revenue success are equally important.
I usually like him but yes, he has a massive blind spot when discussing Pac 12 issues.
Fuck Stewart Mandel - moron
Thanks for confirming what I've always believed about the Pac-12. I don't get too excited about the "Director's Cup". Who gives a crap?

Geez, I have a diploma from SMU and live in Dallas, but had no idea the school had left the Methodist church.
Easy to understand why they kept it on the down low. Which bodes the question, is TCU still affiliated with the Church of Christ or some other denomination?

The only thing I see missing with Houston is fan engagement. They definitely have everything else in their favor.
Yep, and fan engagement should improve playing BU, Tech, and TCU on a regular basis. Not to mention KU and others in hoops. Big 12 hype and exposure will help their athletic department in all facets.

That's why UTSA has shuttles that drive the students to the Alamo Dome. Also, free admission, just show your ID.
Free?
How much are UTSA students paying in "athletic fees" each semester? I have no idea, but I'm curious. I doubt admission is really free.

I like the 3 guaranteed rivals/pods proposal better if we play everybody twice in 4 years. Just take the Top 2 teams for the SEC Championship.
-
Why would SDS propose an 18-team SEC with no OU? While adding BU, Memphis, and UH? Very odd. He must be a morning drinker.

Out of the 4 new Big 12 schools plus SDSU BYU is a clear #1, Cincinnati/UCF/SDSU are all roughly even and Houston is last.
I expect Cincy to have a healthy uptick in recruiting now in the Big 12. It's dumb a state as big as Ohio only had one P5 team. It can easily support more than that. Cincy should be able to get a good amount of the second tier instate recruits that Ohio State passes on but who still want to stay in Ohio while playing in a respectable conference.
UCF has the most potential out of this group. They have a massive amount of students and alumni, they're committed to football plus the big 3 Florida schools have all been wallowing in their own feces for awhile now so there is a local power vacuum. A good run in the Big 12 could turn them into a power.
UH should be able to keep more Houston talent home, too, with Big 12 cred using your logic for Cincinnati and UCF. Why wouldn't they? Their alumni's pockets aren't as deep collectively, but a few BMDs are committed to that program.

If you don't think you'll be hated by the lower tier SEC schools (or that USC won't get hated by the lower tier Big 10 schools) you're nuts.
We're already hated, dude, wherever we go. I'm surprised aggy isn't higher on this list.

They turned their nose up at 5 reasonably large public schools with invested fanbases, solid to elite basketball programs (the defending champ and a school 2 years removed from playing for one), solid football programs, and 1 private school who just played for the national championship in football and has a strong basketball program.
Fucking idiots deserve their plight.
I suspect the Pac's biggest problem these days is listening to Cal and Stanford.

I’ll type it more slowly: Texas won’t be left out of any consolidation of the upper tier of college football. The Techs of the world should probably hope that the consolidation isn’t drastic enough to leave them out.
I don't foresee it being < Top 64, which should include Tech, but who knows?

Ask yourself from a business perspective if you would rather have A&M or a school like Indiana in your league that has zero redeeming qualities.
Last I saw, hoops contributed 20% to a league's media value.
But, yeah, every conference except the B1G - and maybe ACC - would rather have aggy.

It's not satire. It's just frustrating. This isn't TAPPS 2A where everybody has to be given a right to play and compete. This is a huge, valuable, high stakes business and if someone isn't contributing at the highest levels they should be part of the payout.
By most metrics, aggy is a Top 20 revenue-generating program and easily the #2 in Texas.
At the time, aggy was a great add for the SEC. You can certainly argue it was done out of desperation and a need for attention, but it was the right move for them. No, they're not going to be cut or given less media revenue.

I'm starting to also believe that some of the negotiations going on right now involve aggy and one other cellar dweller getting the boot from the SEC when we join with ou. Consider their conference history:
SWC Days: Different world
Big 12 Days: Got in because of big brother and our desire to avoid state-level pushback. See also: Baylor, tech, etc.
SEC v1: Brought Texas-based eyeballs to the SEC for the first time, huge win for the SEC
SEC v2(upcoming): SEC no longer needs their Texas-based eyeballs, we bring that in a much more dramatic fashion. aggy provides no further value to the conference.If you think about it it is quite enraging that aggy is going to get an equal share of conference revenue going forward. Texas brings way more shine both inside and outside of Texas. aggy has DISMAL TV numbers (typically the worst in the SEC) and they've embarrassed the conference every year. Their academics and their on-field product both suck as well.
Perhaps the SEC is working to just write them a check they can use to pay off their perennially empty stadium or to buy their crappy coach out along with a note that says "Bye Felicia!"
Congrats, your thoughts just went viral.

Of course once we join the SEC they will no longer be the top team in Texas. Those nut grabbers just cannot stomach that thought.
aggy was the top team in Texas? By what metrics? Most wins against FCS competition?

I meant bowlsby. His reaction.
Not with ou
I think we can all agree that Bowlsby is a fuckin' clown who never added much, if any, value to the Big 12.
