re: A&M hopes to announce SEC by September 1st per Houston Chronicle

How can they announce they are moving if they are not invited?

It would be the last step, the ones that occur before we may not hear about.

Those would be:

1. Resolve or get close to some sort of number on what buying out the Big XII is.

2. Loftin officially requests to join the SEC.

3. SEC presidents have a vote on A&M joining.

and then 4. Texas A&M announces joining the SEC


I doubt we hear much on 1 and 2, I guarantee something about 1 is already happening behind the scenes and probably has been for awhile now. We may hear about #3 being scheduled.

I have faith that A&M would not have gone down this road unless there was some idea that we would be voted into the SEC. I don't think this time its about getting concessions or more money from the Big XII like last year, I think this time Loftin is leaving.
