Their statement pretty much said “We are going to look out for our own interests”. That doesn’t have any impact on whether or not OU brought up OSU in SEC discussions.

Who predicted the Confederacy would re-emerge as a football conference?
Best case scenario is they don't get the votes to be added so this doesn't happen again.
exactly. t boone is ded. okie state will probably end up in the pac-12 IF their academics do not hold them back.
Somewhere Kkkirk is pissed as hell that schools other than Iowa and joining the SEC.
this does nothing. they will be gone in 2025 no matter what. is fox or espn going to give more money to a conference that is DOA?
It's 55 pages now. This still feels just like the conjecture based frenzy around the missile crisis of 2011. This is actually less likely to occur this time than then, factually.
Has anyone else suggested the possibility that this is another ploy by the big swinging dicks in the Big 12 to leverage the scary unknowns of conference realignment into getting the tv networks to come to the table with a comparable deal other conferences are getting?

That would save the conference in the short term, but any outcome that’s not a ploy for a better media deal will poison the conference beyond repair.
Regardless of how this turns out, ISU needs to have a contingency ready to go.
This definitely makes me want to win the conference this year more than anything.
Hmmm. Nobody has weighed in on what the Federal Government will do. Separating itself from the pack, the SEC should be, by all measures, a target for increased taxation. Anyone with expert knowledge in that area?
This makes A TON of sense. But if A&M are in the no camp. I bet teams like Tennessee, Arkansas and Vandy would hate that
The reactions from around the college sports world indicate otherwise.
Win the conference and beat the living **** out of as many teams as possible.
Trust me I think it’s wild too. But if these rumors turn out to be factually true, it means Vandy’s footing along with Mizzou’s is not nearly as safe as they think.
Quality internet is longer than 1 year away. The metro should have everyone covered in the next year or so with Metronet MiFiber and Google Fiber but the vast majority of rural America is not going to just magically get quality internet access. Streaming is the future but it is just going to be crappier bundles as we are already seeing.
LOL no friggin way the SEC kicks anyone out. The whole OSU/OU package deal is no longer on the table from what I've read.
Best case scenarios:
1: Big 12 expands (quickly)
2: NCAA blows up and we make the cut in a new super league with more regional/driveable matchups
3: Admittance into the B1G
Worst case:
UT and OU leave with no mega stars to fill their void. We become a more powerful AAC and revenue falls off the cliff
