A&M receives legal letter containing "mutual waiver of claims" from Big XII


quote:

Texas A&M officials received a letter today from Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe, outlining withdrawal procedures according to the financial provisions of Big 12 bylaws and mutual waivers of legal claims.

The letter, received in response to A&M’s Thursday request for withdrawal procedures, should help expedite A&M’s apparent move to the Southeastern Conference.

In a statement released today, A&M president R. Bowen Loftin stressed that it is “not our intent to prolong our conference exploration for an extended period of time.” Sources at both A&M and the Big 12 have suggested that, because of the mutual waiver of legal claims in regard to a possible A&M move to the SEC, an announcement in regard to the school’s application for SEC membership could occur by the end of the week.

well, looks like LSU is gearing for for a legit rivalry

Pick up FSU from the east, and we kill the ACC and the Big12 in one shot

Hmmmm. I know our administrators are trying to be sensitive to our football team and not be a distraction so this seems like it will go down ASAP. If for some reason it doesn't happen by Thursday, then it will definitely not happen till next week due to a 2nd week bye.

Either way, this is inevitable now. SEC 2012 here we come!
