As all you sports fans now know, Texas A&M and fanning the rumor mill and lighting the embers of a plan many of us thought dead last year...joining the SEC.
I have to admit it's a smart move for both sides. The SEC gets a team in Texas country and Texas A&M gets to know what it feels like to be in a dominant conference.
Seriously, this move is all aces for A&M. Think about it, they got the raw deal when the Longhorns got permission to have their own TV station and a LOT of the money flowing into the BIG 12. What did A&M get? A conference with 10 teams in it who still call themselves the "Big 12"
A&M has a right to be upset. They should bolt to better pastures in the SEC. Sure they'll be the whipping boy in the SEC West but practice does make perfect and when you play with the best you can guarantee you'll win like the rest, over time.
There's also rumors flying that Florida State is considering a move to the SEC as well. I don't blame them either. If I was in a basketball conference I'd want to go play real football teams too!
