Just reported on 1620 the Zone in Omaha, apparently, a reported associated with A&M named Aubrey Bloom is reporting that all SEC programs have accepted A&M into the SEC.
Apparently, A&M will announce they are leaving with 2 weeks of today.
Here we go again..
BTW, I'm not disagreeing or saying you're wrong, I'm just saying this is actually really fun to watch.

So, 2 weeks before the season starts they are going to join the SEC?

It would probably be effective after the completion of a full fiscal year, so July 1, 2013. That would be my guess.

While I have no doubt that the Big 12 is going to disintegrate, I find it hard to believe it would be this soon.

Just like how Nebraska and Colorado said they were leaving in June of 2010. They wouldn't be official members until July 1, 2012 and could start playing sports in August of 2012 or 1 year from now.

And apparently, ESPN threatened Texas Tech that if Tech doesn't want its game with texa$$ on the Longwhorn Network, that ESPN/ABC wouldn't broadcast any of Tech's games.
It looks like one big happy family.

It looks like Iowa St. is going to be in a non BCS conference in three or four years.

Wow. Thank God, we're not dealing with this crap. I was originally very intrigued by the idea that Texas could join the Big 10, but based on all of this drama, I couldn't be happier that we only grabbed Nebraska.

I went to espn.com for some accurate, unbiased information about whether this rumor was true. Surprisingly, there was nothing there. And guess which team was on the CFB page:

Texas is the destroyer of conferences. They destroyed the SWC and now the Big12.

I for one think Iowa St. could greatly benefit on the football portion of things if they were to join the MAC or some other lower tier conference. They would probably go to bowl games most years and in doing so raise their football programs prestige. To me being a bottom feeder in a BCS league is less appealing than being up top in a non BCS league.

sarcasm, my man. Sarcasm.
Only a matter of time before the Big 10 expands also.

LOL. The guy they're talking to said that last year, the Big East ADs agreed to take Kansas, KSU, Mizzou, and ISU. After adding TCU, if the Big XII falls apart and Big East expands, they'd only need three teams -- KU, KSU, and Mizzou.
Clone fans' Big-East backup plan might not be so solid.
