That's the problem. They're trying to give a chit instead of cash. Kinda like Wimpy, "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday..."

Texas talked to other conferences during the process. Don't act like they are innocent just because they didn't leave.

Whatever. Everyone knows the bow-tie braniac had been talking to the SEC about jumping ship long before any mention of the Longhorn Network.

Enjoy lugging your bass drum up to the upper deck for conference games.

This. Don't worry though, oildonkey is getting hammered on a main board thread where he acted like UT flirting with Pac10 (albeit with alterior $ motives and contingency plans for lil bro), getting more TV $, and staying in the conference is just like ATM making a pledge to stay and then backing out months later.

One guy talked to another girl and then brought home some shiny jewelry for his girlfriend and a treat for his dog. Another guy jilted his girl for a dude and now is calling his ex wondering why she won't get back with him once a year for memories sake. Yeah, its the same. Just like teams in the top5 for cheating all time are as guilty as the teams at the bottom of that list.

Monkey, serious question. When are you going to finally leave our board and head over to the Bama and Lsu boards and whine and cry to them about how unfair aggie is always treated?

Because I will bet you the $200,000 you have won in the last year on all your bets they wont give a damn either

"So it's ok for Texas to talk to other conferences about leaving over the past three years but it's not ok for A&M to talk to the SEC and leave? Lies and deception? Pot calling kettle black?"


Owned? Tate only backed up my original point on Texas talking to another conference. You don't explore other conferences and say you were faithful. It's silly!

There is no Texas is evil thoughts behind this. The truth is A&M and Texas both explored their options and only A&M was invited to leave and did. Neither university was truly faithful to the Big 12 during this.

I think in Texas' situation, it was more about knowing their options if the conference ended up dissolving. As the administration said from the beginning, their #1 priority was keeping the B12 in tact.

How exactly is Texas guilty? Did Texas make a pledge to the conference only to leave for the SEC while taking more money and accepting a larger piece of the NU and CU exit fees. Of course, all of this is while claiming that a major part of the reason you are leaving is unequal revenue sharing.

Texas is guily by making a pledge to a conference and talking to another conference. They didn't leave because nobody would accept their network. It had nothing to do with loyalty!

Your point is meaningless. Texas talked to another conference. Big deal. Texas didn't have any serious thought of leaving the Big 12 until other members left. A&M cannot say the same. That is how you were owned on the main board, and how you are owned once again.

You mean after A&M announced they were leaving the conference, and there was a question to whether or not the Big 12 would survive based on the networks potentially cancelling the TV contracts? Yep. Texas is guilty as charged of looking into their options once again after the terms changed by another school leaving the conference and breaking their pledge.

Dear God, you are stupid.

Right. Texas wasn't invited to leave. rolleyes

The truth is Texas made a pledge to the conference and intended on keeping the promise. A&M made a pledge to the conference, and all the while was working to get out of the conference. We have already discovered that you are too stupid and/or blind to see the difference.

Even when Texas WAS considering going elsewhere they were figuring out how to bring along, at the very least, Tech, OSU, OU, and... the first time around anyway... A&M. When A&M wasn't going to go along with it, Texas went back to trying to make the Big XII work. Meanwhile A&M tells everyone "yeah, we're all for keeping it together!" after their whining for a bigger chunk of the Big XII pie paid off... and then, once everyone was more-or-less settled back in (and a rather expensive marketing campaign for the new 10-team league had been completed) they decided to duck out the door... alone... and then act surprised when the Big XII teams (i.e., Texas, etc.) decided they needed to focus on strengthening new rivalries and solidifying the conference A&M had just ditched rather than play along and help them out with their traditions, recruiting, and the sudden holes in their OOC schedules.

So, Aggie was "invited" to lose an assload of money in order to get donkey stomped at its Reliant Stadium home games, while Texas was "not invited" to relinquish its multi-million-dollar cash cow network deal with ESPN.

Congratulations, I guess. Do you brag about being invited to time-share presentations in Cabo, too?

Please stop posting. Your ignorance of what happened is causing you to embarass yourself yet again.

Deloss Dodds said all along that he wanted to keep the Big 12 together. Texas only looked at other conferences because it appeared that OU would be leaving making it next to impossible for the Big 12 to survive.

You say it had nothing to do with loyalty? Texas mad concessions on third tier rights and other things to help ensure the Big 12 would survive. Hell they even made concessions on the Longhorn Network when the aggys cried about things which they approved by voting on them.

Texas didn't make a promise to the Big 12 then turn around one year later, and go back on that promise like a certain university that flaunts their so called honor code.

So aggy being completely dishonest to the conference and trying to weasel out of promised financial obligations is Texas' fault? Like everything else I suppose in your feeble brain, bigot? Par for the course for the low character aggys.

The difference is that we explored(key word) options that included sticking with rivals and we preferred to keep B12 South together.

Aggies on the other hand quit the Big 12 and joined a cooler conference.

Good point. After we played for MNC in '09 at what point did we decide that this conference isn't working and we need to uproot the entire thing and start from scratch by joining with the Pac 10? Seems out of left field when we are thriving in the Big 12.

But I guess that is what aggies are accusing us of.

If I remember correctly Texas wanted to go to the Pac 12. However, Colorado made it clear they wanted no part of Texas ruining the conference with their greed like they did the old Big 12 and the vote had to be unamious for Texas to be approved. This blockage gave Texas no options other than try to keep the Big 12 together

Seriously? Have ever posted anything that was not just plain stupid? Texas chose not to go to the PAC 10 because they require their members to share tier 3 television revenue and Texas did not want to share revenue from the LHN (mind you the SEC does not share tier 3 revenue either). I always love the "greed" reference. Texas is a non profit organization, so any money they take in gets spent within the university; half of the money from the LHN is earmarked for academic spending (where half of Auburn's revenues are earmarked for spending on QB's who get tossed out of other colleges for stealing and cheating on tests).

You remember wrong then, ohsfan. Texas was only going to leave if we were forced to - i.e. if the Sooners left, leaving us with no other marquee programs. So we were willing to talk to the PAC 12. Once it became clear that the Sooners didn't have a stand-alone offer from the PAC 12 and couldn't join without us, we blew them off and stuck with our preferred option: keeping the Big 12 together.

That's simply what happened. All the rest is ignorant nonsense.

Not true. Texas wanted to stay in the Big 12. The only time Texas wanted to go to the Pac was after NU left, and it was still second to staying in the Big 12. Texas investigated their options with the Pac again after A&M left and there was doubt about the networks honoring their contracts. Ultimately, there was disagreement about the LHN which kept the talks from getting too series when the networks decided they would honor the contracts and the Pac announced they would not be expanding any further at that moment.

And, please on CU and greed. CU didn't leave because of Texas. Spare us of that complete nonsense.

You don't remember it correctly. The first time around, Colorado wasn't even a member themselves yet. Colorado made their intentions clear first, but they would have had no voting power at that point anyway, not that the other part of what your saying rings true either.

Texas, OU, OSU, Tech, and A&M were all set up with invites to match Colorado's, with the idea that they'd join the AZ schools as the west division... but A&M didn't like it and talked about going to the SEC instead. AT that point UT came back to the table, not wanting to ruin the regional rivalries. All the focus returned to how to save the conference. I'm speculating on this last part but, ESPN, also having an interest in not seeing UT, OU, etc., head to the Pac, decided to help secure the situation and the LHN (which was a work in progress at the time) quickly came to fruition.
