[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 132351049, member: 1428007"] OU lended some credibility by winning and making playoffs except when it mattered. Texas was just a name and did nothing for the conference whatsoever. They blocked previous expansion, creation of a network and any progressive movement for the remaining members. These schools kept the conference from being stable by constantly projecting the do what we want, let us be more significant or else mentality that spread everywhere and reduced the other members standing, revenues and recruiting greatly. Now the conference is free of all that and can work together as a United conference to better everyone’s status and not just one or two schools to the detriment of everyone else. The significant outlay of revenues for years to come illustrates the remaining schools bring more value to their network partners than the ACC with Clemson and FSU or the PAC with Washington and Oregon. That is a good thing. [/QUOTE]
