The continuing shortfalls of the Big XII: As BIG XII membership dwindles, UT continues to get their way.

I am upset but not at all shocked nor impressed over UT's latest shenanigans ...finally succeeding with their bout to get their own network. A move which will be the demise of the Big XII if it continues to cave into their (UT's) childish demands. The Aggies for certain appear to be going to the SEC before too long. As with the SWC of years past, when the Razorbacks and the others jumped ship, it was the undoing of the conference led by something or the other that the UT "tea-sippers" selfishly demanded and somehow unfairly received which led the conference to disband. Similar to reasons why Nebraska and maybe even the reason Colorado also left the Big XII last year. Sadly this time around it appears that it will be Texas A&M that calls it quits with the Big XII as they go to find another more suitable home for themselves within the SEC. Who can blame them!
The tight-knit group which for years/decades consisted of Baylor, Texas, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech since the good ole SWC days and the inception of the Big XII will soon be a memory. A&M is tired of playing second fiddle always to the good ole boy network which is UT. The traditions of each of these two universities may be quite impressive but the glory and histories not always as such. Each one cast out of the darkness often led by greed and the need for notoriety and fame regardless of how it came about or which other institutions they had to side-step or step over. More of the negative actions coming from our foes to the south in the middle of Austin ("austin"taceous-town). And who can blame them if they have the money and the power to do as they please except that this is no longer the days of old. UT is no longer a powerhouse, the days of the powerhouse seems to be dwindling as more and more sports programs are being investigated and found guilty of one thing or another. The Big XII should be more mindful to appease all remaining members and to disperse both money and power equally. Most importantly of all each respective university needs to stop allowing the likes of UT the power it has attained through-out the years by being more forceful with the conference big-wigs and the B-o-R and refusing to succumb to ideas or transactions which will benefit one school more than the other or all others.
Tradition may be rich in Austin-town for now, but as the adage goes..."every dog has its day" appears to be right around the corner if the 'Horns continue to be dismissive. The other schools UT continues to dis will have their day and one of these just may be able to play whistle-blower to the many negative (and unlawful) things we all know UT has dirtied their hands with through-out the years. Also another endearing adage for UT to remember..."the head you walk over on your way to the top may be attached to the ass you have to kiss on the way down".
