From a Chip Brown article posted a few hours ago:
State Rep. Jeff Leach of Plano announced on social media Thursday he’ll be filing a bill “requiring legislative approval for UT to bolt the BIG XII.”
“The lack of transparency by our flagship institution is wrong,” Leach said on Twitter. “Such a monumental economic and educational decision impacting the entire state must not be made in a bubble on the Forty Acres.”
I hadn't even thought about my degree getting defiled by association with the SEC. I will now move to Plano and vote for Mr. Leach for the rest of my life.
Mind you, TTU, OSU, TCU, BU, KSU, and WVU aren't exactly Vanderbilt, either.
Regardless, pretty entertaining and diverting theatre for ol' Spracs. Think I'll call UT and offer to donate $100 if they stay in the Big 12.
