Just when we think we've gone and boiled Texas football down to its essence, the Texans go and out-Texan themselves.

This week in Waco, about 100 A&M fans pooled their money to put up a billboard right near the Bears' football stadium in Waco. Baylor is still threatening legal action should the Aggies ditch the Big 12 for the SEC—hence the giant maroon sign: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's conference deal."

The billboard, organized by A&M grad Luke Jalbert, cost $2,750 and is "all in good fun" (and perhaps a little bit confused by the meaning of the word "covet")

Great sign, I suspect you will be seeing more of these types of signs as the Big 12 minus ? falls apart and the remaining few insist on large payments from those that take off to greener pastures.
