So I have another concern regarding games vs OuT. I'm thinking some conference officials will want to jump to the SEC, too. As far as I can find, conferences set their own payscales and I'm sure their are fefs who think the future money is in the SEC, so why not grease the wheels with some favorable Sooner/Horns calls? May not be a conscious decision.
Any candidates for such a treachery should be identified preemptively, IMO. Basketball will likely be worse.
