Funny that TexAgs claims this is deceitful and backstabbing by the powers that be, but the truth is they just don’t matter in the discussion. This is about adding 2 of the biggest brands in college athletics and thus preventing us from otherwise joining the Big 10, ACC, or PAC. This is a business decision and their deluded, spiteful opinions aren’t going to even remotely sway the decision. They’re still the new kids on the block but act like Bama or any of the other original SEC members give a shit what they think. They were only used for 1 thing by the SEC and that was to gain access to the State of Texas. We are and always have been the crowned jewel of conference realignment and they can’t handle the truth that historical they are an irrelevant athletic department and even since joining the mighty SEC, they still have not played for national championships in the big 3 sports like fucking Baylor and Texas Tech. If they want to be out of our shadow, they can just go fuck off and join the Big 10 or ACC or wherever because we’re coming whether they like it or not.
