So unless you are agreeing with that fact, you are wrong.
That's not to say that "drama" can't come, but if it does, the Pac-1x has the leverage to show Texas the door. And Utah, Arizona and possibly Colorado aren't giving up the money from the LA, SF and other Cali markets to follow Texas anywhere.
Texas is joining the Pac-1x because it's their best available option. As long as it's mutually beneficial, the Pac-1x will let them in.

Much earlier in the thread, I posed a question about researching funding for state universities. Where does this money come from? State appropriations? Part of the larger tuition pie?
All of this was based on the ruse that academics matter in any of this.
Utah: shit
OU: shit (but a better smelling pile than some of the other shit)
OSU: shit
TT: shit
