If they leave before 2025, they will also have to negotiate a penalty fee for leaving before the expiration of the GOR.

Bowlsby feels that the OU and TX departure is a “personal betrayal”.

Kind of feel like he should reserve the commentary until TX/OU aren't playing league games anymore.

Texas is going to get absolutely wrecked in the SEC. I can’t wait to see it.

I bet they will be in the top third of the league

They got crushed by Arkansas this year

I thought A&M would get crushed. They have settled in fine.

I don't see Texas consistently beating Alabama, LSU, Georgia, Florida, Oklahoma

He’s right about Texas football problems.

It’s refreshing to see a commissioner defend conference teams that were wronged

Sounds like Hair and the MWC when we left...

Big difference- it was clear BYU wasn’t happy. TX & OK just took off

There have been rumors for 10 years that Texas and OU were flirting with other

I’m not seeing that as you are but neither of us really knows I guess

Wut? Oklahoma and Texas were happy and they still left? Texas has been whining

Acorn

Does he really need a reason to explain why they’re leaving?? seems pretty

It’s called class and working in good faith. Texas and OU haven’t done that. Bob

I hope they stay until 2025, but I have my doubts

Cutting an $80 million check is painful - even for OU and Texas

Jesse Pinkman

This… even if part of the check comes from the SEC, that’s a large chunk

Think there’s even more on top of that as well

yeah, there's a 0% chance we are in the Big 12 with OU and UT

BYU is still Indy if TX/OU hadn't made their move. I love that they're leaving the B12. It was the best thing for BYU.

Conference is a wide open race. Oklahoma is the juggernaut. It’s not like it

I'm really enjoying all the shots at Texas from every side.

So did ESPN and TX underestimate Bowlsby’s ability to keep the Big 12 afloat?

Interesting negotiation leverage Bowlsby has.
