Larry Scott has gained my respect. Texas basically has been saying "We are Texas you NEED us so pay up" and he told them to frak off.
I'm a little disappointed. I wanted to see Texas join. But not so crazy about the OK schools or Texas Tech. Plus I don't really follow college ball. So, I guess I'll be able to survive this blow. barfo
Same. I was excited at the prospect of adding Texas and OU, but..... I also agree with Wheels. We don't need them as much as they seem to think we do. When they start making demands it's sianara. However, a part of me wonders if this isn't a ploy. OU was making demands and Texas was making demands... maybe we're telling them they need to STFU or it's a no-go.
I'm disappointed. I want the Pac16 or whatever Pac it is to be the best conference so it'll shut up all those fucks down south.
It would have made us a more prestigious conference for sure, but I am happy Larry Scott didn't cave to Texas' demands
my first thought on hearing this was a no go is that this might be a negotiating ploy. Maybe this will turn out to be the final say, but I doubt it. Also, I'm fully with the board not wanting to see the PAC-12 subservient to Texas/OU demands. STOMP
It's quite simple. If Texas agrees to equal revenue sharing, like USC did when the Pac-10 was expanded to twelve teams, the Pac-12 will invite them. If Texas continues to want to keep its LHN side deal for themselves, the Pac-12 won't invited them. Let them go destroy the ACC or the B1G with their greed.
It only goes to show the juvenile attitude of some that insist on bringing up the deal coming soon thread, IMO. The only difference in this situation is that it made it to the national media because it was a national story. Deals fall apart all the time, even one's that were all but done. I would guess people that do that are either A. Young B. Have a small penis C. Are bullied by their spouses D. Hate their lives/jobs
More importantly, why do you let it bother you? A. People on the internet are juvenile. B. There will always been baiting and trolling on the internet. C. There's no point in listening to or responding to trolls. D. Ignore them and move on.
I hate being called a liar by anyone. Integrity is something I have spent my entire life establishing, and internet geeks/trolls or not, it bugs me. I realize I need to let it go
