Just saw on ESPN that Oklahoma president said they would announce in as little as 3 days and no more than 3 weeks what their plans are. He said many conferences have expressed interest. The house of cards is beginning to fall.

nope I dont think they are..Texas either goes independant( which ESPN I think really wants)..or goes Pac 16( not best scenario for network but also not worse).

Some believe ESPN is getting exactly what it wanted with A&M going to SEC and giving a chance for Texas to go on its own

Pac 10, 12, 16...whatever will not ever take a team that wants to play by a seperate set of rules when it comes to revenue sharing.

Texas will go independant.

First, give it some time. Second business adventures fail all the time it is just the way America works sometimes things work sometimes they don't. People probably thought the idea of an all sports network was nuts in 1979.

People already forget..UT was ready to go to Pac last year..but did not because of A&M...people think it was Texas who was agianst revenue sharing..when they voted for it almost every time it was brought up in the Big 12( a&M voted agianst it)
