How many teams will be left when the dust settles in a few years? I think there's a way for all the teams to still have some involvement. I will explain that at the end of this list. Here's my list of the top 32 programs and a list if it goes to 48. There's some debate if it goes to 48, but not much debate if it stops at 32. I guess one could debate Arizona State, but that's about it. The top 32 at least come close to carrying their own weight. Everyone below that line is losing money for t

This is great content for free.

This is where I figured their false bravado would land almost immediately.  That we are "following them" and that "we need them and the SEC."  That would have been a MUCH better look for them, than all of the petulant whining that has ensued, all the way up to their BOR.  But I'm so happy they decided to be whiney little cunts about it, it's made it so much more fun.

We don’t need to give 18 month notice. Lst me rephrase. We are not going to be forced to wait 18 months.

Yeah, I don’t know why people keep repeating this.  We will be in the SEC starting August 1, 2022.

Yes if it all actually happens, there's zero chance we'll be playing football in the B12 in 2022.

Aggy should abstain so the vote is 13-0 and then we can then brand it on their dog.

Aggy Brent has spoken:

 

The bargaining and talking points are coming. They have no leg to stand on and they know it. 

Their hissy fit will turn into shit like: 

"It looks like Texas needs A&M. We welcome the challenge." 

"We are the premier program in the state and look forward to proving it" 

blah blah blah 

They'll pretend like they never had a problem with it in the first place. It's so obvious.

Why do I get the sneaky feeling that the next time I get lost on the way to Pyle Field that no one is going to give me a beer and a sausage wrap, and escort me to the stadium?

Back when it was an all male school, this little tradition developed where the fans/students squeeze their nuts to feel the same pain the team is feeling by playing hard.  As with all things aggy, it’s weird because it started when they were basically a giant frat for wayward youth but they treat their traditions as dogma. 
Yes this is a serious post.

All that shit has followed them with us. You know how many SEC fans know nothing of their dipshittery? The just wash it over wit the “tradition/howdy” bullshit

After a few seasons tailgating with us old timers (2010 and before) all the stories they thought they left behind are right there in their face again.

so just for a recap to make sure I have everything so far:

 

Texas and OU look to be making the move to the sec

Everyone says OU is let looking to the future but that UT is heartless and evil even though they are both leaving in the exact same way

everything was done in secret thru a law firm for a few months at least, a deal could be very close

SEC leadership totally left Mizzou and aggy out of the discussion and agreed to work on the deal with UT effectively behind aggy and mizzous back because of their Col. Sanders, mint julep country gentleman’s hand shake which supposedly gave aggy power over UT and OU entering the league

Aggy finds out thru the board of regents meeting where the plans were revealed either thru necessity or by a leaker

Aggy didn’t take it well, news gets to The Chronicle and we have a report that causes Texags to crash. 

Big Xii finds out and loses their shit since the remaining 8 are essentially fucked. Some of us feel bad for OSU and KSU, but not many.

aggy throws a huge apoplectic public tantrum where they insinuate they are going to look into to how to respond to such an outrage possibly by moving conferences, blocking in TX legislator or suing the SEC in gentleman's court for being naughty.   


 

Am I missing anything?

 

Sharp and the Aggie president new about it but had to keep their AD in the dark according to Finebaum.

This is the kind of shit that I think most of the cfb world assumed we made up/exaggerated about them when they were less visible.

Right now a lot of people are realizing there's no need to exaggerate. It's who they are.

Sec is the best thing to ever happen to us, but we will leave if you don’t do what we want. Is their current public stance. 
 

which they’ve projected onto us forever. 

A good reminder of how truly funny it was when they were strutting around saying "We Run This State."  If that were true, you wouldn't have to say it.  What's more, you don't run this state, you didn't run the BigXII, and you sure as shit don't run the SEC. 

aggy doesn't run anything, but they seem prepared to run from everything.

If the sips and sooners do move to the SEC, it will severely impact Waco, Ft Worth and Lubbock. Where are the Texas Legislators who represent those regions? Where the hell is Abbott protecting those regions?

This seals the deal on me for Abbott, will vote for his opponent.  

First and more importantly, he pays lip service and talks big about the border crisis, but in reality doesn't do **** to stop it. A frickin' Gov w/ gonads would have sent the Guard down there and stopped it, and told the Feds to pound sand or stop him. NO courage. Or, just another sell out to Chamber of Commerce and Globalism.

And this, he, a tu Alum, is hanging all those Texas cities out to dry, not trying to defend them. Think of the economic impact for the small citizen who depend on fall sports in Waco, Ft Worth and Lubbock when this goes down.

DONE WITH GREG ABBOTT. He doesn't give a rat's ass about you.

So he’s voting for MM? Alright, alright, alright.

I pretty much knew aggy would do a meltdown.  I did NOT think it would be this bad. 

I actually thought it'd be worse but I grew up in a small aggy infested town and have lived in the middle of these fuckers for the last 30 years. I mean there's still time for further idiocy so maybe they'll reach the full potential I know they have.

aggy won’t leave but I do expect them to continue looking like dumb asses and try to with all their aggy power to sue or convince the sec not to have Texas and ou. Which I really want them to do so this gets even better than it already is.

They know it is over. They will request something stupid like their pod to be aggy, vandy, Kentucky, miss st/ole miss and Texas pod to be bama fl georgia tex

Holy fuck, I just remembered they are coming out with a new NCAA Football video game. Just in time for us in the SEC. That is going to be sick. Sliders turned all the way down, rookie mode, 15 min quarters against aggy. 77-0 all over again, but in the first quarter

I just have a hard time believing anyone at aggy knew about this, there's just no way this wouldn't have gotten out, maybe they were told they'd be kicked out of the SEC if it did.  Even with that I still have a hard time believing it.

Dear all aggys we know are lurking and reading and going back to the insane asylum, I mean texags to report back.

 

Please keep this going! Take it all the way to the Supreme Court in hopes you win! Everyone is enjoying the greatest meltdown in college football history! I actually support you in your case against Texas/ou.

aggy will request to be in a pod away from Texas and OU but with LSU because that's their new "rival". LSU will chuckle at the thought that aggy thinks it is a rivalry at all when aggy has only beaten LSU twice in 10 years. But that's aggy and rivalries.

Yeah I probably should have said more. A meeting notice has to give the correct time and day of the meeting to be held and it has to provide that info 72 hours before the scheduled meeting. By writing the date of their Board meeting incorrectly, aTm has failed to correctly post the Monday meeting. Therefore holding it at 5pm on Monday would be in violation of the Open Meetings Act. The repercussion could be to nullify any action they were to take. I expect them to re-post the meeting notice and that it will be at another date and time other than 5 pm on Monday, as they seemed to intend.

using wednesday 21st was sharp's idea, because in aggy cosmology, that is the day which will live in infamy

My guess is that Brent Z article was printed within 24 hrs of anyone at aggy finding out.

Which is why they were told at the 11th hour.

If you’re only scoring 77 with those settings you’re not going to fair well in the surly online dynasty.

Not to mention even if this all DID come to a head with something going down to Austin every single D would be pulled aside and told "look....when it comes to college educated voters, who exactly do you think votes for you?"
