I'm not sure the Texas legislature will allow the Aggies to go to the SEC

Legislature wont be in session until 2013 after another election. The only man who can call a special session is an Aggie.

The oversight committee is having a special meeting Tuesday. Don't know if they can do something temporarily or not. Not only that, A&M and the Big 12 just signed a billion dollar deal with Fox News. A&M losing could lead to a lawsuit based on the value of the games now, which could be a big monetary hit to the Aggies.

This is much more complicated than most think it is and I there are some potential costs out there for A&M to make a quick decision.

A&M's lawyers believe that the Big 12 is in breach of its agreements to us.

Nowhere near close enough to it to have any idea.

I think it's a done deal.

By this time tomorrow, there will be a deal in place, imho.

The more interesting question is what happens next...

I heard the SEC has backed out. Fear of some sorta lawsuit(?).

media pressure? I thought the media loved the whole thing? More than a few thought it would get us to a playoff quicker (of course, we have a 2 team playoff now)

From what Ive read, TAMU should be allowed to transfer due to that Longhorn Network deal
If no one comes from the future to stop you from doing it, then how bad of a decision can it really be?
