Title: Big 12 Puts Limits on Longhorn Network
Post by: Marshal Dillon on August 01, 2011, 09:03:35 PM
Finally, someone is doing something.


The conference announced that the ADs voted unanimously to forbid such content on any medium branded as a conference or member institution platform. Controversy had been stirred up at the suggestion that Texas could show games featuring players it was recruiting on its network set to launch this month.

Finally the Big 12 brass grew a pair and stood up to big bad UT.

After last year's debacle, I don't even think that would've helped UT.

I heard Cote went to the doctor, got to the door, looked up and saw the shingle. The doc had MD after his name. Cote said "nevermind" and went home.  8)

I think the NCAA will ban the televising of high school games, if not, then the Big 12 will.   #+

If the Big 12 can ever level out the playing field for all of the schools in that conference, Texas will struggle to be at the top. I've never thought thought Mack Brown was that good of a coach anyway, he's had plenty of recruited talent but not much to show for it.

Sitting smack dab in the middle of the country's most fertile recruiting ground. Maybe a toss up with Florida. You're right, Jamos.

Some QB's play with broken ribs and win national championships.  Others take themselves out of the game because their arm is numb.

Yep, he was looking to etch his name in Crimson fame.  Mission accomplished Greg.

Fight On!  Fight On!  Fight on, Men!  Remember the Rose Bowl, we'll win then.

Now if we could only get him or his dad to stop by here to chat with us, that would be really cool!

And let's not forget about that Florida game were he danced down the side line trying to stay in bounds long enough to get the first down.  The thought of that play still gets me fired up!  WOOOOOO!  Ya! Ya! Ya! Yeahhhhhh!

How many more days?  31... hurry up and get here before I run over somebody.
