I think its just that OU's non-con games all got picked up. Maybe Okie State made more money on basketball, too. |

In a move to placate Texas, all of the other Big 12 members pledged that from now, going forward, they will only recruit athletes from the state of Alaska.

I don't really understand how that works. I'm not sure how to frame the question, but what stops SEC from recruiting Texas right now?

Playing in front of friends and family and on local TV is important to some recruits. Once A&M joins the SEC there will be SEC games in College Station and the SEC will be more televised in Texas. It's not going to change overnight, but now SEC coaches can use those two things in addition to offering the chance to play against a higher level of competition.

The ACC is going to make a killing with a new bball TV deal now that they added two basketball schools. I think the Big12 is fine with football w/ OU and UT. Those school will always make this conf very valuable when it comes to fb. I'd love to see Louisville brought in. They are a top 5 bball program when it comes to value. A rivalry between Self and Pitino over championships and players would be so fun to watch. |

A&M gets 2nd and 3rd level players. A great player is not going to choose A&M over Texas just because they will play in the SEC. I understand that the SEC is better top to bottom but the Big 12 is the perfect place for Texas players to get their value up for the NFL. This is a terrible move for A&M on the field. But they are in a tough spot anyway. They've been trying for decades and still never win a bowl game. Maybe a change of scenery will help but I doubt it. |

Didn't the SEC Presidents recently vote to ban oversigning? If so, with the 25 scholarships rule and a ton of talent already in the Southeast, I don't see the well going dry in Texas for Big 12 teams any time soon. |

Yes, they voted to ban oversigning but it still happens. Last year South Carolina signed 32 and Arkansas signed 30. |
