I agree. I saw this earlier too and had to repost in a different forum.

Here’s a take on what it means for basketball.

At last count there were under 25,000 season tickets. I don't think that counts the student season tickets, but it probably does. If you don't have season tickets or want an upgrade, next season is the best timing. I suspect demand will increase exponentially as the level of competition rises.

Really really hoping we can make Texas play at Nippert once before they are gone

I'd love to see both OU and UT in Nippert, but I doubt it will happen. I'm looking forward to seeing the financial and exact timing for us to join in 2023, but I expect the next domino to fall will be UT and OU negotiating Big 12 exit and start of SEC play on same timing, i.e. no overlap with us.
