[QUOTE="TownesVanZandt_rivals, post: 131739724, member: 1606648"] SEC never got who they originally wanted. In the late 1980’s they decided to expand under Roy Kramer. Named the Ole Miss Chancellor at the time head of SEC expansion. The reason he was named was because he graduated from the University of Texas. When the rumors came out the other schools flipped out like you see now. The difference was the Governor at the time was a Baylor grad and the Speaker of the House was a Tech grad Sad thing is… Ann Richards wouldn’t have became Governor if Clayton Williams wasn’t such a redneck and shook her hand at a debate in Dallas. The rape comment was bad enough but he treated a female like **** and pissed a lot of people off. So the SEC went with Arkansas. When they wanted to expand again to 14 they went to Texas. Texas could have left the Big 12 in 2010. There may have been a chance of Texas A&M not being able to leave if Rick Perry wasn’t Governor because once again Baylor threw a fit This time they had everything lined up as the Governor of the state and the Speaker of the House are both University of Texas graduates. I really don’t know why they aren’t interested in West Virginia. I feel like it is because of the size of the state. Have to show people they are wrong. Have to show people that WVU fans care about their university and their athletic programs. Instead of this hurting the school it should make it stronger I am afraid the opposite will happen [/QUOTE]
