oooooh. I am skeered of them Baylor boys. Actually, this is part of the espn conspiracy, :cool2:
Actually, I think the Aggies would have been happy to continue the game. It was the short horns who got all bent because A&M had the nerve to leave their orbit. Frankly, I don't think the Aggies would resume now, with the major hit on their SOS...I don't see anything wrong with preventing this since the Horn AD doesn't want to play aTm and I don't think aTm wants to play the Horns.
Yes...Wasn't it the Longhorns mouthpiece/human sockpuppet Chip Brown that said that Texas would never seek to play TAMU again when they left for the SEC?
Wasn't it the very same Chip Brown who said the Aggies refuse to play them a few years later?
yes but trying to convince them of that now is like trying to convince a barner cam knew - a waste of breath.I am sure that story is playing big in Big 12 country. Especially coupled with the Texas Aggies and the Tsip story. I can't see the SEC being scared of the big 12, I think the SEC was 3-1 against them this year.
What happened to the SEC/Big 12 being partner conferences like the PAC /B1G?
I added this to my post.
It is making the rounds on message boards. Most are saying the SEC is scared of the Big 12. They cite this example and supposedly the example of aggy/ sips. Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't it bevo that cancelled the A&M series ? I think the Big 12 is trying to reclaim the Texas recruiting grounds that the SEC has encroached upon. How could Orange bloods and a Baylor board have sources inside the SEC office. That is truly funny. These stories do not have to be true, the perception is now fact based on 2 stories. The SEC is scared.
Baylor/Oklahoma/Texas - The Disrespect Coalition.I don't believe it for a moment. The SEC has never done it before and a lame duck Slive is definitely not going to do it. Baylor has been playing the "disrespect" card now for years. It's getting old...
No thanks!I know Coach Stallings threw an NCAA rep out of his office. How would you like to be the one who walks into Coach Saban's office and tells him "don't schedule Baylor." :biggrin2:
Everything is bigger in Texas - even conspiracy theories. :wink:When Texas A&M decided to leave the Big 12 and the SEC was in the process of inviting us to join you all, Baylor and their President Ken Starr threatened to sue the SEC for Tortious Interference. The rumor in Texas is that yes, the SEC nixed the Baylor vs. Tennessee game because of that. Mike Slive supposedly made sure that Tennessee didn't add Baylor onto their schedule because of Ken Starrs threat from a few years ago.
"But with Baylor and school President Ken Starr threatening “tortious interference” lawsuits against the SEC and Slive, according to Big 12 school sources, the conference notified the SEC on Tuesday that the Sept. 2 letter pertained only to the “Big 12 Conference Inc.” and not member schools."Everything is bigger in Texas - even conspiracy theories. :wink:
Thanks - Wasn't questioning that part. Interesting read. But I don't believe that the SEC had anything to do with the TN/Baylor game that did not materialize."But with Baylor and school President Ken Starr threatening “tortious interference” lawsuits against the SEC and Slive, according to Big 12 school sources, the conference notified the SEC on Tuesday that the Sept. 2 letter pertained only to the “Big 12 Conference Inc.” and not member schools."
