Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
So if this is real, the absolute earliest it would go into effect (and most likely time?) would be the 2023-2024 season, right? So you are pitching Stewart/Perkins et al on starting SEC play after their first season on campus. Arch headlines the '23 class that would go right into the new conference schedule.

You may be right with regards to what's best for cfb, but it's just not Texas' responsibility to prop up college football or any other program. The SEC move is the best move for Texas. I don't think an SEC move does anything to hurt West Coast recruiting, and probably helps. Austin and the University of Texas sure makes a lot sense for a recruit from SoCal who wants to play in the SEC.

The SEC outmaneuvered everyone for the last 15 years or so. They branded themselves as the only conference that really mattered, made strategic additions and their success in winning most of the National Championships during that span (propped up mostly by Bama) made perception reality. Fortunately for Texas we were always too big to be left behind if the Big 12 didn't work out. Sucks for the rest of the non-OU programs but that's the way it goes.

Fun because he's insane and generally good for content, but not scary anymore. Pretty sure PK has his balls in the back of one of his trophy cases somewhere.

Ha, you just negged me for a pretty innocuous joke on the recruiting board and you’re pissy over here for some reason? Seems like you’re in a bad mood, did you just order a shit load of Big12 branded Surly merch or something?

Well shit...do I have to be the first one to say it? Fine. Not SEC good.

Yeah, leaking it today before it’s official made it pretty imperative to actually get the thing done. We got $9.95ers calling recruits asking them what “Texas to the SEC” would mean to them. Texas’ time with the Big12 probably died today, one way or another.
- $9.95 worth every penny

Texas Recruiting Notes 2023: Strippers, Monkeys, and 5-Stars
Unless the prospect of playing for Texas in the SEC is more appealing to the Manning clan than the prospect of playing for Texas in the Big 12. Pretty sure we'd be allowed to recruit using the SEC no matter who we're battling.

There is something to this I think (and also why it makes sense for Texas/OU to shop themselves as a package deal). If the SEC wants the entire college football world to keep revolving around them they need to add the two biggest free agents first and let the Big 10 and ACC fight over the scraps to counter.

Guess the 5-star who said he would commit today wasn't anonymous, it was Evan Stewart.

This dipshit, if you Google “Billy Luicci gif” the first thing is literally him whining about a flag (while eating a dick).

Love the sentiment, but also let’s chill with that talk, anonymous 2022 5-star. Don’t want to spook anyone

At the very least, it's really fun that Texas is a huge topic of conversation for the aggies at their SEC media day. It's their nightmare.

Lol, the video is even better than the quote. Bjork is not happy.

If I can get way ahead of myself here: The Big 12 contracts run until 2025, correct? On the off-chance this actually happened and was announced within the next few weeks, would we really see 4 seasons of a lame duck Big 12 playing out the string with Texas and OU or could we see the the move happen earlier?

Straight cash homie Among other reasons like being able to tell which way the wind is blowing.

Well at least they have plenty of time to make their next 100 year decision.

I'm the wrong guy to ask for any inside knowledge, but seems reasonable that the Athletic Director would be heavily involved in discussions about changing conferences, no?

It's pretty funny that today while this board has been hammering CDC for not having the stomach to compete on an elite level in cfb the story breaks that he's (reportedly) been been operating in silence on a plan to move Texas to the SEC.
-

Well he's right about one thing. If it happened it would be tipping point to trigger the inevitable 4 team super conference setup. The other conferences couldn't just stand pat and watch the SEC add Texas and OU without at least trying to counter. Of course he's wrong that we'd need the Armageddon to happen to join. We'd be causing it by our own choice.

From the immediate reactions this may be exactly correct. The story says an announcement could happen in "a matter of weeks" so talks have been happening for a bit but no way they wanted the story out yet. This leak would only help to scuttle things.

Um, holy fucking shit? Also, a story this huge and Zwerneman breaks it? Seems unlikely
