    So what? I don't understand why anyone of this should stir up a UT fan unless you are actually concerned about your own future and are merely expressing that by mocking A&M.

    Because it's the internet and mocking is fun and what it's for.

    Major, do me a favor, go to this website and count up all the players from Texas:

    Do you think it had this many Texans in 1990? I don't think so.

    Now, I'm not going to bother to run the numbers, but do the same for Texas A&M and players from Missouri/Kansas/Oklahoma - I doubt you'll see a similar trend.

    For waht it's worth I don't think that Alabama is suddenly going to become half-texas, but there's a definite precedent for schools that come from net-importing regions to benefit greatly from a Texas conference tie-in more so than a Texas school in reverse.

    So the SEC may get Clemson, FL State and Missouri too?
