Only $15M..., meh. Come on Big12 desperate times call for inflated numbers.

We are going to watch 3 teams walk out of the Big12 then walk in when we started this entire thing 20 years ago, ha.

Understandable. Losing your last reg season game most years must suck.

I would miss them a lot. I don't understand all the hate against the Piggies; they belong here in the SEC and add a lot of tradition to the overall mix.

This is the greatest idea I've ever heard. Trading Arkansas for A&M would be great. A&M would be LSU's new rival to end the season, and shitty Arkansas would be out of the conference.

Wishful thinking for those that remember the SW Conference. Gotta keep things in perspective on the board. Most don't know their was a SW Conference.

Why do we always get brought up as going back to the B12. Going back to that big orange cow would be the same as going back to your ex wife who screwed your neighbor in your own bed. HELL NO WE WON"T GO... It is however, funny as hell to think they would need us to throw them a lifeline. We would throw em an anvil instead. TUCK FEXAS

I was thinking the same thing. There is not a single soul in the Arkansas administration that would give 2 seconds of serious thought to moving to the Big 12. I'm sure there is a super nostalgic grandpa or two (Jerry Jones) with a tiny amount of influence that might be inclined to lend an ear, but come on.

Every time some blogger or radio personality throws out a reference towards Arkansas to the Big 12, the official story becomes that Arkansas is "kicking the tires".

shite gets old. I guess it's our cross to lug around. I'll deal with it I suppose.

Has there been a single hog fan that said it was worth looking into? I can't say that I've seen a single fan say they wanted to go to the big12.

Why on earth would teh school do what NO fan wants?

So BYU said no, ND said no... that leaves SMU, Houston and who? Big12 is doomed.

because they won't. all those donations that Jeff Long has worked hard to secure for the new football facilities would get taken right back and that head coach he is paying top 10 money would start looking elsewhere.

Thats a nice piece of story right there. 15 million aint shite to move to the big 12 from the SEC. This guy isnt very good at his job if he even gets paid for that.

When the Big 12 collapses, will the "rumor" then become "Arky to Pac-18"? I'm insulted when anyone insinuates that we'd even want to join the Big 12.

I know on tRant its the turd of choice to lob at Arkansas fans, but when someone from the outside mentions it, I'm like "tha f*ck you said?"
