Boren denies driving the train, but seems to think he appointed his self to speak for all the other presidents and hold the only press conference that is important.
Speaking of temper tantrum spoiled brat radio people, thank goodness Pat Jones is on his show to calm him down and explain things to him. That kid is out of control if you disagree with him. His Dad has filled his head with his thoughts and he thinks nobody else has an opinion that matters.

Just like Neville Chamberlain in 1938, who declared “Peace in our time” after meeting with Hitler, Boren is kidding himself. Texas is 1938 Germany.

Boren was out maneuvered by the PAC12 and Texas and now he’s trying to spin it as fast he can to appear otherwise. Purely political. OU needs to start talking to the SEC asap and maybe Mizzou can get us in the door.

Still confused by “CAMPUS CORNER” dateline and why “Trav” likes to refer to himself so much in stories.

I would agree with the tantrums by radio people. I thought someone was going to blow a gasket because a caller wanted to know “how do we have leverage if we don’t…. have leverage”?

What we knew 3 days ago.
O wanted to go to the PAC 12.
O had no interest in staying in the Big 12.
UT wasn’t giving in on LHN.
Stoops wanted the PAC 12, according his remarks made LAST SUMMER.
OSU was waiting on O to make the move.
T.Boone was against it.
Boren was asleep at the wheel when it all got started again.
Boren & AD were forced to be pro-active.
Stoops started politicing to cover for Boren and JC.
T.Boone advised Burns against move.
“Must be Texas, Lowest form of White Man Alive”
Radio people throw a temper tantrum when you disagree with them.
AKA-BBJ.

Haney is great, what a breath of fresh air. I am seriously just in shock over all of this. Is OU really this irrelevant? I mean, granted Texas has a lot of influence, but my gosh man, we look like total tools. We talk a lot of talk about how we won’t be pushed over and won’t be wallflowers and then at the end of the day that’s what we are. Texas will play HS games, they will steal 2 conference games, and they will keep the LHN as their sacred cow with no concessions. What a freaking joke. TAMU will leave, and now I hear they are entertaining the idea of adding TCU. WTFH???

All the Texas fans are right. We are all submissive to Texas. Any thoughts Haney on why TAMU and Nebraska have the jewels to get out from under Texas’ thumb but not the Sooners? Are we that irrelevant? Are we that weak?

I for one never fell for the idea that OU had all the cards. Texas always has the most cards. They have the $$$. $$$ always wins, unfortunately.
