Does this mean SMU will be the 15th team in the SEC?

When Mizzou leaves, the Big 12 has very limited options if the Big East is really going to stick with the 27 month exit clause. It'll be BYU to get to 10 and then done. Louisville and West Virginia couldn't get into the Big 12 until the 2015 football season but the Big 12 needs to get to 10 right away so that they can keep their TV contract in place.

That is a very good point.

How watered down does the Big12 get before Texas again tries to flee for the PAC12?

TCU is going to be in for a ride. Will Big12 money be that much more than BE once contracts are renegotiated with Mizz and A&M missing? The schools they are adding are now where near comparable in numbers. They should just add BYU and lock in their teams. BYU has no where else to go, PAC12 and Big10 are not taking them. For BYU it's indy or Big12, unless BE wants to add another FB only team. WVU is the only other high value team left for them to try and get and WVU is a stretch distance wise and burns couches for fun.

BE teams flirting with the Big12 should wake up and see what a mess/house of cards it is and sign to stay in the BE.

I wonder how much it would cost the Big 12 in TV revenue money to have to play with 9 teams for 2 or 3 years? TCU, do you know?

I just hope that SMU doesn't follow TCwho's lead, and jump from bed to bed to become an AQ team.

yes, in the article it states that giving Deaton the power is basically the first step to SEC. TAMU did the same thing, if you recall.

How this move is seen by ponyfans hopefuls:
SEC to Mizzou, you said you wanted to be in the Big10 and we don't settle for being second choice, we are the premier football conference of D1, good luck with that phone call... Hey SMU, we need a Vandy of the West and we also hate TCU...

Curious as to why they would want a Vandy of the west when they do not want the Vandy of the east they have now.

This is a message board...what do you expect. :wink:
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.
