You just go right ahead & keep thinking that.

Jesus this is really old info and is being spread solely by insecure A&M fans that are pissed Texas will have its own network.

I don't expect any additional conference realignment for a few years. Big 12 teams have no incentive to move now, FOX just backed up a dump truck full of cash for the new TV deal. That will make the teams content for awhile, except for A&M because they want to feel like a big dog.

Once realignment starts up again, I expect we will see the mega conferences that everyone has talked about over the last year or two. Texas is the wildcard and they may just go independent; no conference will let them come in with the Longhorn Network, but if it is successful they won't be willing to give up the money to join a conference.

I had read some stuff last summer - can't remember where -that aTm was essentially broke, and that would eventually precipitate their move to a new conference.

I would think the new TV deal would stregthen their coffers a bit - but I would never understand how they were "broke" in the first place.

I agree. Probably some validity to the rumors they're butt hurt with Texas calling the shots.

They need to realize it's not 1991 anymore and keep their heads down for the time being.

I DON'T think moving to the SEC would benefit aTm on the field in any way.

I dont know whats going on at ATM right now. But if the ATM boosters , chairman, & school president,ect are smart???? They will follow dollar Bills advise what ever that my be.

I would rather have a chance,& be BEAT DOWN in the SEC.
Than to be held down with no chance,in whats left of the Big12.
