Haha.... cue back up the Big XII implosion circus. Things are looking awful shaky down there. I wonder, if Texas could do it over again, would they pursue the Longhorn Network? It seems to have created a big mess by shining a spotlight on the inequities within the conference.

invites Texas to join. I was on the ESPN boards last night an no one from the PAC-12 wanted Texas. They agreed that they simply brought too much drama with them. Everyone wants OU and it seems like Missouri will be able to pick between the SEC, PAC-12 and B1G (who would thought that Mizzou would be in such a good position?). I would laugh my *** off if Texas gets left out because they are arrogant ********.

..I heard T. Boone one of those taped ESPN radio shows & he was giving aTm the business about leaving the Big 12.

The bottom line is T. Boone has invested millions of dollars in Oklahoma State.


And if the Big 12 break ups (which it is in the process of doing) T. Boone's investment is threated.


T. Boone lives with the fear his newest capital investment venture (ie, Oklahoma State) will, in the near future, be forced to go independent. Or worse, end up begging to join the Sun Belt conference.

by their state legislature. They legally cannot separate. Someone, probably the PAC-16, will take OSU to get OU. They won't be left out.

listen. However, doesn't mean his opinion is any more accurate than anyone else. OSU us OU's girl dog and everyone up there knows it. OU spends more time talking about TX than OSU. With T Boone OSU has developed a nice program, without T Boone they wouldn't be much.

Picken's money has kept them in the top 10 here in the past few years. They have a shot at the Big 12 this year.
