No small point. UT prez Bill Powers has authority to stay in Big 12, but cannot take action on own to change conferences; regents keep that.
hmmmm

Loftin to BoR: We want to go to the SEC
BoR: You have been granted power
Boren to BoR: We want to go to the PAC
BoR: You have been granted power
Powers to BoR: I don't know what the hell we are going to do.
BoR: Come back to us when you do.

Sounds like the regents and Powers are divided.
It actually looks like the regents will only allow him to stay because that is what they want.

And here is a contradictory story:
Regents give Powers the OK to start looking

As expected, Texas regents have given university president William Powers the authority to take any actions in the best interest of the University of Texas, including the possibility of “continued participation in the Big 12 Conference.”
That means Powers has the authority to negotiate on Texas’ path —- and take any action along those lines.

Not exactly:
So Powers was given authorization, but the final decision rests on the BOR of Texas.

"Any change in conference membership has to be submitted to the board to approve. Powers, however, wouldn’t need regents’ approval if he decides Texas should remain in the Big 12."

"Powers will work in consultation with a group of six people, including Regents chairman Gene Powell.
Any change in conference membership has to be submitted to the board to approve. Powers, however, wouldn’t need regents’ approval if he decides Texas should remain in the Big 12."
From your article.. How's it contradictory?
