Dr. Thomas Osborne might choke a . Or several es.
Nebraska should just quit playing football if this happens.

Looks like either Colorado or Nebraska are going to be in a conference with someone they wanted to leave forever.

Alot of throw away things, but the first time I have seen Chip actually hint the Big 10 might be involved. Most of the article is about A&M going to the SEC in 2013, slowing down expansion so more expansive talks can be had
Quote:
"Sources say one of the options being looked at by Texas A&M right now would be to delay their departure from the Big 12 to the Southeastern Conference one year. Instead of joining the SEC in 2012 the Aggies would join the SEC in 2013....
But just imagine what that means...
All the scenarios about whom the SEC might add to get to 16; about whom the Pac-12 might add and how Texas and the Longhorn Network could or could not fit into a conference structure could be mulled over for weeks and months and not hours and days.
If the Big Ten came to Texas and said we will take you as a member and you can bring the Longhorn Network - with the only caveat being that Texas could not share in any of the revenue from the Big Ten Network, that could be deliberated and discussed thoughtfully."

An outside the box option would be something like a conference such as the Big Ten allowing Texas to join the league and only make money off of LHN and not share revenue from the Big Ten Network. File that one away
Getting more interesting by the minute.
You think Colorado went to the PAC 12 to get away from Texas?
That can't be right. Loooooochi said that A&M was done with the Big 12.
I don't know why you've knocked Looch so much. He's been the most accurate on this. When everyone blew their load Tuesday night he said there was a hurdle (Baylor) and was right.
He's taken the Chip Brown approach.
1. Take
2. Throw against the wall
3. See what sticks
4. ???
5. Profit
I don't necessarily agree, but...well done.
Chip Brown is deffinetly lip service for whatever Texas wants leaked. Sometimes they throw him a bone so that he looks somewhat credible.
The only reason I linked his article was that he referenced the B1G with Texas. Who knows if it has any merit or not. Most likely it does not, but interesting nonetheless.
His has stuck more than any other person/outlet reporting on this story.
He's also thrown the most.
I disagree, but I digress. I think Texas ends up in the PAC with TT/OU/OSU. 20% chance at indy.
My wet dream, but this B1G is heating up.
You'd prefer the PAC to the B1G?
Especially if ND is the 14th team and they stop there.
One can hope.
I didn't think that the B1G was an option.
Oh so your wet dream is the B1G? Now I'm following. Although, I've always heard Dodds has wet dreams about the PAC.
I would still like for Texas to go to the PAC. It's a better fit imo. However if the B1G is a viable option, then it's another wet dream waiting to happen. Whichever conference s the LHN less is probably where Texas will go. Someone floated a rumor that had Texas joining the B1G but not sharing any revenue. They would get LHN money, and the rest of the league would get B1G money. Same with Notre Dame. I don't believe it, but the B1G would kill babies to get Notre Dame.
I doubt Texas goes B1G unless the PAC doesn't agree to all those terms listed. If both are willing to abide by those requests then Texas will choose PAC.
lol Tech problem.
if the Big10 wanted UT so bad that they go ahead and take Tech as well, I would never stop laughing out loud. Never.
lol that was from last year
lol that it was an actual e-mail
They don't want Texas as bad as you might think. Last year when that was discussed the B1G didn't want any of UT's crappy tag alongs. I guess you can't comprehend that. If A&M goes to the SEC as planned and OU bolts for the PAC-whatever then Texas would mostly likely be free from having to go to another conference with worrying about the likes of Tech and Baylor.
The B1G wants Texas, but only on terms that will satisfy both parties. That is the catch.
lol that it was only a year ago
I don't see anything anywhere from any real source that says UT wants the Big10.They don't want Texas as bad as you might think.

I very much think this latest rumor you posted is a huge pile of bull .
I don't know how credible this is but...

To make clear what I'm reporting: both Texas & Notre Dame have had discussions w/ the Big Ten regarding joining the conference by 2014...
nor will you, but multiple sources have confirmed they have talked recently, which can mean nothing or a lot. Probably was nothing more than a meeting to gauge interest, etc...
The rumor that they talked? believe what you want to man. I'm not saying there weren't conversatrions, but it wouldn't suprise me. How deep those conversations went (if at all) who really knows.
