I think both Texas and A&M will do whatever is in their best interest institutionally to do. If that's the Big Ten, so be it. The travel costs are an issue, but a minor one. If the Ten wants Texas then, IMO, they'll have to take us too because I don't think politically Texas can swing the deal by themselves, there would be too much oppostition to it at the Capitol. If Texas were to leave the Big 12 for, say the Pac-10, then A&M would have to look out for its own interests. A Big 12 Conference without Texas is not a sustainable model for A&M... for other schools maybe, but not for A&M.
