Message: [QUOTE="Hoo's That, post: 1759329, member: 3609"] One of our board gurus has said many times that UT was offered the same deal ND took before it was offered to ND, but turned it down. They won't turn it down a second time. It's more likely that if the Big XII doesn't expand, OU tries to get the conference disbanded so it can go to the B1G and gets to play Nebraska again. (Those were some of the best games ever played.) Disbanding the conference ends the GoR. Okie Lite is left on its own and asks T. Boone to buy it a conference. UT would then get the ACC offer again (possibly a full membership including fb if they wanted it) and they'll take it. Full membership could be a positive influence on ND to reconsider independence. No guarantee that would, but they'd have to consider it since they like to recruit very heavily in Texas. Supposedly, the big factor Texas hates about being in the PAC-12 is the time zone difference.
