Scarlet Overkill Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I saw this quote referenced on a Sooner forum and found the MOUTH PIECE's article. Sorry for the link to this horrible site. They need to get over themselves, my GOD! Sources said Texas officials told them last year the Longhorns were reluctant to go to the Pac-12 because they would lose a lot of the power they enjoy in the Big 12. The sources said Texas feared being out-voted and muscled in the Pac-12 by the power brokers in that conference - the original Pac-8 (USC, UCLA, Cal, Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington and Washington State).

Scarlet Overkill Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 I posted the link in this thread Then we should BOTH have our hands slapped. Sorry but that quote just pissed me off. "We don't want to join a conference unless we can control everything about it", is what that basically said to me. Quote Link to comment
okaive Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 And because of that quote, I think the PAC 12 should tell them to pack sand. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 It's Beebe's belief that if Texas refuses to go to the Pac-12 that Oklahoma would not get a bid from the Pac-12, sources said. But another source close to the situation said if Oklahoma and Oklahoma State indicated to the Pac-12 that they wanted to be a part of that league, they would be admitted. That'd be great if OU went to the Pac-10. We would get to play them once in a while in the Rose Bowl. Quote Link to comment
