Haven't heard much on when they will be joining us in the SEC...

Just want to discuss what year that it will likely happen and what year would be better for us.

Thanks & Gig'em

2023

Best for us- 2025. The longer the better plus more opportunity for something to come along to screw it up.

Most likely- 2022. The SEC, ESPN & bongwh$&res don't want this dragging out.

I'd imagine the pending legal matters are going to influence this greatly. The Big12 is not going to go away quietly. And the Pac12 is also voicing displeasure. Not that they will have any legal recourse. They will just be the child screaming in the corner about this being unfair.
Grab some popcorn as this will be interesting to watch.

More like 3025

No one really knows for sure yet. By 2025 is the only thing we will know for sure today but probably sooner.

2023 or 2024. The SEC invite will say 2025, what will not be said is they can join quicker if they get all their legal matters and $ commitments to the Big 12 cleared.

If I am tech, Okie State, tcu, baylor, et. al. I drag this out and make cow and OU stay through 2024. The remaining 8, their conversations for their future should always and only be about 2025, i.e. KU wants to join the B1G in 2025, the Big 12 wants to invite BYU, UH, UCF and USF starting in 2025, etc., etc.

2023.

CFP will not expand to 12 teams until 2023 and expansion doesn't make sense without that being in place.

2023

I don't know.

J Taylor, is that you? Never again.

I know behind the scenes they are shooting for 2022 but all of this legal stuff from the Little 8 might slow their plans down.

Must be wondering who he's working for next.

Pretty sure this is the correct answer for everyone on this board.

All others are speculation and educated guess based on limited facts and best available reporting

In The Year 2525. If man is still alive.

Sips have that kind of money between the cushions of their couch.

2022. ESPN is making sure that the other Big12 schools find other places to be swallowed by. Once enough of them have a plan for the future, they'll rip the bandage off

Texas/OU are shooting for 2022 with 2023 as their fallback.

Texas already have Arkansas and 'Bama on the schedule the next three season, plus LSU owes Texas a COVID-cancelled game.

When we least expect it. For example at halftime of the Toledo game. The horns are sneaky like that.
