A&M had to essentially be bribed to stay out of the SEC and I thought Texas was fielding offers from the Pac 10.
Were there ever any active proposals to bring them all or was that just something that was spitballed? Like I said, my memory was that it took a hell of a lot of effort just to get Baylor and Tech included once they finally started making formal movements for inclusion.
