TexanMark lives in Texas.

I used to live there.

Trust me, the ACC does not want Texas in the Conference.

The Texans would quickly be unhappy there and eventually the other schools would want them gone.

It's not because of the numbers or the university itself. Its a great school. It's not because of the athletic programs or traditions. They are also great.

It's the Texas attitudes that would be the killer.

You see, they believe that Texas, the State, is the best place in the world. And that UT is the best school in the world. And that Texans are the best people in the world. They aren't mean about it. It's just the way they think.

And they act on these beliefs. And the other States and schools and people are lesser beings.

When you are fundamentally better, richer, smarter, bigger, better-endowed, etc., It's pretty easy to feel and act entitled.

I like Texans. I like Texas, the state. I admire the Univ of Texas. I like Lone Star in long-neck bottles, Texas chili, BBQ brisket at Sonny Bryans, Willie Nelson and Bob Wills (Still the King) and the Dallas Cowboys.

But I don't want SU to be in a conference with UT.
