Realignment talk not going away
It will be funny when the Big 12 expands to 14, then to 16, and the original remaining members lose all control of the conference to a bunch of minor leaguers who are there for the coattails.

Once they all got a wider exposure to Texas A&M "Aggies" they all started shying away from the aggy part of their long standing school namesake

Left Behind: A Quick Dose Of Post Big 12 Reality
If he'd paid any attention to the OUsucks forums, he would've known the (majority of the) fans have been very vocal about getting out for years now. That in itself should've been somewhat of a flag.

2022 Summer Season: Flavor-Aid (Strength: Prison Wine)
Speaking of coaches... If we have any team (especially OU) doing a head stand in a porta-potty and there is even a hint of letting them come up for air before the end of the fourth, a coach or two needs to be canned on the 50 immediately.

2022 Summer Season: Flavor-Aid (Strength: Prison Wine)
Half the Big 12 either has new coaching staffs or are starting at bare cupboards... Texas is running the same scheme ( not real sure it's a good thing yet) on both sides of the ball, two year in a row. That hasn't happened for most of the players on the team. That has to help...

It doesn't belong in the "Hall", but when has that ever been something aggy concerned itself with? In fact, give 'em 20 -25 years and they'll have found a way to stick it on the wall as their first *one of many* Jimbo almost Nattys.

2022 Summer Season: Flavor-Aid (Strength: Prison Wine)
I keep hearing the 995s saying that as well.... But I also hear that Ewers has been hitting 75% of his passes since day 1. And from what little I've seen, he's hitting the reciever's in stride a lot more than Card does. Now Card is ahead of Ewers at this time, but that is only because of experience in this system. I have a feeling we will see different as early as the spring game.

Besides, that would be separate from suing UT/UO. They can sue the schools for not giving the proper notification, but that would only get the Big 12 so much (if any). As for the schools, i bet there are things they can counter with. Hell, I would hit them with the OkieLite game. LOL. There is probably room in there somewhere for the revenue not keeping pace with other conferences. And there is probably room to work with one the BiG 12:s own predatory expansion practices. I have a feeling they've been talking to Houston (probably Cinci and UFC also) for a long time. If you can't negotiate a contract dispute or even a breech of contract down, you probably are in the wrong profession.

It could be costly for ESPN. But it could cost the Big 12 even more in the long run... ESPN is by no means obligated to enter the bidding war for the Big 12's upcoming contract. A contract which is already looking to take a sizeable hit, losing the biggest bidder would definitely have the Big 12 taking a nose dive down to G5 level pay

Why the fuck is aggy worried about bomb shelters? Aren't they supposed to save the world from the commie bastards while Ukraine and the rest of us sit around and sip tea?

Tell Me About Texas a&m
Someone remind me who it was that exposed the whole thing in a selfish attempt to blow the whole thing up, no matter how much money this meant for the entire conference? And what was it again that brought playoff expansion talks to a grinding halt? Fucking aggy lack of self awareness is just mind numbing... The only thing he got right is the last part. Yes aggy, when it comes down to these types of choices between UT and TAM, the University of Texas is always going to be preferred choice and aggy the "if we can't have" choice. Hate to tell aggy, but the SEC didn't choose aggy over UT. Committees won't pick aggy over UT for tournaments. I know it is impossible for aggy to understand the University of Texas and Texas A&M are NOT equals. They are NOT the same. And the only people in the world who would say they are, is an aggy, plain and simple....

They are not making that type of money. You are usually an ok poster, but when it comes to this stuff, you live somewhere with unicorns. Just because some KSU or BU fan's podcast on YouTube projects this, it is not a projection from the networks. You use the OSU/BU game rating as a marker. That was solely based on hype ESPN was using to push the upcoming playoff games. It doesn't reflect the attention either team draws nationally. The Big 12 has a population footprint at least half the size of everyone's else. That is why the Big 12 relied heavily on National appeal, but no one wanted to schedule better games. Yet, they had no problem letting Texas and eventually OU do all the heavy work. But now as a conference that needed all the National attention they could pull, they lost the two horses that pulled it. And with it, they lost the Texas population as numbers. The reason they rushed and expanded with the ones they did is because they know it is bad. They grabbed Houston trying to salvo somewhat of an interest in Texas. BYU is the closest to a P5 school out there. UFC, recognizable name in a big state. Same with Cincy. They are desperately trying to grow the footprint for hopefully a networks soon. They HAVE to have it because without it, they are DOOMED. This is NOT going to get them there. Not even close.... If they make half the money the other P5s make that does nothing to compete, but the other leagues have networks that are starting to distribute insane money on top of the media numbers. It is done for the Big 12. It is just a matter of time...

He ignores comments that point out brainstorms, concerns or inside info was posted and discussed days to weeks ago...

TEXAS QB TALK
Why haven't we used him throwing the ball? Maybe we will this year out of a two back set. As much attention as Bijan gets when he touches the ball, a flicker to Rojo would catch someone up shit creek.

The Big 12 is going to fuck themselves by being a little bitch and not wanting to let go of the coattails. One last payday... When the contract expires, UT and OU will walk out with a "see ya later". "Yep, you got it... In court. Sue us bitches". It will get tied up in court until the Big 12 comes unraveled. Which will start when they see that first check without coattails to ride.

As much as SEC fans have heard "tu" over the past decade, I'm sure sure they will go out of their way and call us UT just to get those aggy tears to flow.

Most overrated team in CFB history, non-aggy division
The good old SWC years. Just about every team in the SWC spent half each practice session on their weekly opponent and the second half preparing for Texas leading up to that game. Beating the Longhorns was what their season was all about and nothing else, outside of the once every decade or two where they had something of a decent year... Kinda sad when you look at almost all the rampant cheating going on in the SWC was done with beating Texas in mind. But for the most part, failed miserably (LOL @aggy).
