      Kind of disgusting that all this distracting drama is going on during the season, when we should all be talking about actual football games. And it's all about ego and $$$.

                  aTm's decision to go to the SEC will probably go down in history as a catastrophic event and a colossal mistake by aTm. Plus, they'll look like villains. It's truly idiotic, IMO.

                    But aTm already is idiotic.

                      There seems to be a lot of dumb to go around. I'm still trying to figure out how this move is a net positive for the SEC.

                        testify.

                        I guess the only thing that can stop this now is the dreaded "Texas legislature."

                          I'm burned out on keeping up with this thread. Quick check. Should I be manic or depressed at the moment?

                            I disagree. When I saw TAMU's medical school ranking I realized it belongs in the SEC.

                                IMO, if you want to see BYU in the Big 12 next year then aTm to SEC is a domino that needs to fall. Now we just have to hope it doesn't blow up the Big 12 altogether. I'm still of the opinion that OU/OSU don't really want to go to the PAC. I hope I'm right.
