Fire Bjork. He was either surprised and did not know what was happening or worse he was willing to sleep with the enemy rather than expose them. Remove all the SEC branding from our uniforms, Kyle Field, etc. Nothing special about the SEC anymore. It's a money grab, we might as well let Michigan, Ohio State, Florida State and Clemson join, too.

The whole progression of news feels curated. The decision was probably made weeks ago. Bjork and everyone at A&M may not be happy about it but there's no way they were surprised by this three days ago like we were

Bowen did say in the interview with Looch that there were times when ADs were not in the highest level of need-to-know on certain things.

But then again he was dealing with a recalcitrant Bill Byrne who never wanted A&M to go to the SEC.

So it is possible the ADs were not informed until much later.

In addition to all the NIL, streaming services, move towards super conferences

Somebody on our end wanted to renew the rivalry.

Icing on the cake will see what pods we are placed in(assuming there are pods).

The big *%^* you will be the big12 pod of Ags/ou/mizzou/tu

Force TU to play ball in our house, but our AD and ADMIN don't have the cojones to make that happen

Step back from the ledge. It's going to be OK.

As an Aggie, I just don't like being lied to.
Makes it hard to believe things.
AlsoNo I'm not a ***** and don't need a dog for those hive mental giants.

This Bjerk coming from ole piss had a smell about it to begin with, and for those who watched his intro of the new baseball coach, he was just a bit too cocky on his SEC references - he knew what was happening then.

I've accepted the change,

But please no.

And to be perfectly honest, it'll be cool to see us play Texas again. The baseball games are fun as hell.

I just don't care to ever play OU on a regular basis if we don't have to.

that's where a lot of A&M fans are now.

we knew the t.u. series would come back someday.

but nobody wants any more former Big 12 teams to become annual opponents

Yeah, it's going backwards.


It'll be really disappointing and kill much of my enthusiasm.

The magical $255 million upper above CBS divides evenly by 17 (16 schools plus conference office) but not by 15.). MONTHS ago. MONTHS.

One misconception is that there is a 'Rivalry'. We divorced our crazy ex a decade ago and have moved on. Been a wonderful 10 years. We have nothing but disgust and bad memories of the whole abusive relationship. Everyone ever associated with the ex ends up running away if possible. There is no rivalry, Only hate. IMO

I would add. I listen to all the Town Halls with Ross. All of them. He's a good guy.

Yes. People forget we tried to bring whorns along both times. They balked.

Don't blame Bjork. He did a great job getting a baseball hc. He has to answer to a lot of people.

I think Bjork sucks, but this is probably not on him. Realignment is made at the general admin level, not the department level.

Kinda like we were negotiating with the SEC before the sips and BDF knew about it?

Heck. Bjork may look elsewhere if he feels he has been put in an unwinnable situation. If he did not know what was going on and then try to respond, I would be mad and likely pursue other options, which is what Ross would have.

You aren't very good at math or did I miss some sarcasm.

Not true. 15 x 17 = 255.

He might be pissed but he still has a better job than most ADs in terms of resources and pay.

Not true. 15 x 17 = 255.
True. But the 17 number had not been mentioned before. So the math error was a definitely a miscalculation on my part. But the point is that if the 255 upper is the only number we see for adding everyone including Texas and OU, it likely was pre-baked.

Yep. Most of the commentary I've seen this week has mentioned that these kinds of decisions are made at the level of presidents and regents, not AD's.

He's not gonna know if the president doesn't tell him.
