From kusports.com, but still pretty good. I didn't realize that ku was the sole school of the conference putting UT in its place. At least he didn't list K-State among the carcasses left by Texas:
"The more I ponder this whole thing, I'm starting to see where it is possible that OU may be, in a way, standing up for the old Big8. First, they see Texas demanding that the Big12 headquarters be moved to Dallas. Then they see Texas demand that the basketball tourney that had been in the same place forever be moved. Then they see one of their long time friends but rivals get so tweaked that they leave the conference that had been around for a very long time. But the biggest thing to think about is the fact that Texas was not on the map in football or basketball when they joined the Big8 to form the Big12. Don't get me wrong, Texas had had some good football historical success. But when they joined the Big8, they were a non-entity. So, what do these egomaniacs do? They latch on to the best basketball school and the best football school and sort of ride on the coat tails of these two schools while they figure out what recruiting methods etc. they can scam. They were able to power their way to the top of the Big12 leaving dead MU/OU/OSU/NU carcasses all over the place. But you could tell they never were happy that they couldn't power their way over KU in basketball (and they HATED Roy with a passion because he, as Bill also does, pounded them), so they started all of a sudden getting top NBA type recruits out of nowhere.
