    The Big 12 money shot.

    It seems like the SEC is a great fit for aTm....

    Big 12 Exit Fee-Who do I write the check to?

    I am willing to write a check for $100 for the Big 12 Exit fee. Just tell me do I need to write it to the 12th man foundation or TAMU Athletic Department?

    If the total fee is $20 million, we just need 20,000 more Ags to step up. If you are willing to pay for the Ags to go to the SEC, answer "here".

    [...]

    Nobody writes a check. The money is withheld from conference revenue distributions.

    [...]

    Here. If we start at kickoff we could raise $20,000,000 before the first quarter of the SMU game is over.

    [...]

    You guys will fit in great in the SEC. It will be an awesome feeling to be the smartest school in the room.

    [...]

    Math Fail.

    [...]

    Figures I was off on math-I should have stayed out of Liberal Arts and gone to the College of Business.

    [...]

    Liberal Arts fail too. Dangling preposition.

    [...]

    Almost 300k people follow A&M on fb. Just have everyone wire $10 to the school. Done.

    [...]

    Just when you thought it was only one guy who didn't know how to multiply...others show up.

                Why is everyone so sure A&M to the SEC? I've heard Independence is pretty awesome, maybe they saw the BYU model and realized it will work.

                                A "No comment" instead of a flat denial. Awesome. The only way Pitt comes is in a package deal with Notre Dame, and BYU rounds out the 12!

                                        What does WV do in a Pitt-less Big East?

                                            I don't see WV fitting into the ACC very well but that's a possibility. I don't think Texas A&M will be joing the SEC alone and that the other team will come from the ACC.

                                            But I don't expect Pittsburgh to join the Big 12 (or Notre Dame).
