Starr is out of his mind. He needs to be thinking about $ right now.
He needs to get guaranteed OOC games set up with Texas, Tech and A&M. 2 "home & aways" from each per decade for the next 50 years.
Then, he needs to get his political heavies working on the Big East.
He better do this quick before he is out of options.
Starr screwed up big time. I could have easily seen A&M continuing the Baylor game as an OOC but after all of this nonsense its going to be 15-20 years before we even consider playing them again.
I doubt the Big East would take them b/c there are surely schools that have talked about leaving who would not want to deal with potential lawsuits.
Also, Starr nukes his own argument b/c if Baylor was really that concerned about Texas football teams playing each other he would be trying to get into Conference USA so he could play SMU, Rice, Houston, and UTEP every year.

A win over a nationally ranked TCU team at our own Baylor University brought scores of fans racing onto the field.
What's funny about this is it completely undermines Starr's assertion that Texas schools need to be in the same conference in order to preserve "Texas football". Baylor hasn't been in the same conference with TCU since Baylor was the first Texas school to secede from the SWC.
And TCU is allegedly completely against Baylor following them into the Big East because they are still pissed at how Baylor threw them under the bus to punch their ticket to the Big 12.
IMHO, the Big 12 would have been far better off with TCU than Baylor's sorry arse 18 conference wins. Baylor got into the Big 12 (and kept A&M from bolting to the SEC at the time) for one reason and one reason only: politics.
I fully support A&M in their quest to GTFO that hostage situation and join us in the SEC. No one school or state dominates this conference and we sure as shite won't for one second let Texans think they own this conference.
