I wonder if EPSN is pushing this not only to get teh Big 12 up and running but to get Texas and Oklahoma to the SEC. I still wonder if we will ever find out the extent of ESPN meddling in this round of realignment.Originally posted by Lobot View Post

ESPN is 100% behind all of this, but it will never be proven in court or otherwise. Their level of interference to increase their profitability will not result in awards to those left behind, either the Big 12 8 or the AAC remnants.Originally posted by bearcatbret View Post

I'm not old enough to remember it, but I think this is like when the ABA and the NBA were competing and the ABA lost.Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.

It's a possibility we might because a Congressman from Kansas is going to investigate the whole mess with ESPN.Originally posted by bearcatbret View Post

I think it's in everyone's best interest to move on and get settled elsewhere as soon as possible and get all the shuffling over with.Last edited by Lobot; 09-15-2021, 12:07 PM.Brent Wyrick

Matt Brown Did an open records request on our application for the conference and apparently this is what we sent them.

The request for "full" membership is intrigueing to me rather than the briefness of the note.Originally posted by Lobot View PostMatt Brown Did an open records request on our application for the conference and apparently this is what we sent them.

Everyone has an opinion. I would prefer to join early as in 2022 and UT and OU stay for 4 years. However, this auther believes that the longhorns and sooners depart after this season.

With us going into the Big XII, we should only play home & away series with other P5 teams. No more one & done at the opponents venue.Originally posted by red_n_black_attack View PostWe've played OU. I don't have interest in rushing into anything with UT. Maybe we can get an OOC UT series in the future.

When it comes to college sports especially football we all know money is the big motivator so I believe everyone settles thier buyout and in place to compete in the 2022 year.Originally posted by bearcatbret View PostEveryone has an opinion.

2023 is more likely. In Coffee with Cunningham this morning, he said they are hoping 2023 will happen instead of 2024. I"m paraphrasing exact wording, he said 22 was unrealistic.Originally posted by Rufus View Post
