Aren't they looking for another school to follow them?

It broke around lunch time by a Kansas station first. There are many threads in the Around the NCAA forum discussing it.

Ive heard that and they are looking for someone to go with them, but I have also heard that they are just gonna follow Texas.

 

[Burhead]

Its been refuted, they're likely following Texas.

It's only been refuted by opinions. No one really knows until one of the schools makes a move. I think TX to the Big 10 is as likely as TX to the Pac 10 right now. OK won't be able to follow TX to the Big 10.

I bet Arkansas and Mississippi State are rooting hard for that to happen. With College Station and Blacksburg in the league, Fayettenam and Starkville don't look so bad.

I think he meant the actual towns - not the teams' rankings.

Somebody made VA Tech look good last bowl season, perhaps you should add them to your other two.

You're right hat, "armpits" is too kind in defining those towns.

They could win the next 10 BCS title games and it wouldn't change the fact that Blacksburg is a sewer.

Yeah I missed your point - so sue me.

who cares what blacksburg is like. if they actually do get in to the sec don't go the the game if ut plays them.

Its been refuted, they're likely following Texas.

From Tulsa World:

“I think it would be a horrendous decision for OU and Texas to break up,” Castiglione said. “We’re going to stick together if it’s at all possible.”

 

[droski]

okalhoma is going where texas goes. A&M is the only one with balls to get off the texas teet and that seems like hubris to me.

Anyone who cares about the SEC's image. I'm sure the TV execs are jacked up about the idea of the SEC adding that awesome Blacksburg market. All those shacks held up by satellite dishes are an advertiser's dream.
