Message: [QUOTE="Ldandy, post: 1817440, member: 4584"] Yeah no. There is only one program in America that has the brand to be national and that's ND. Texas is not ND. I don't care how much of a dumb a** investment ESPN made in their school, nobody outside of the state of Texas cares about the program. I live in the Northeast and have traveled all over America for work. I have never met an alum or even a fan of Texas outside of that state. Their profile has been greatly exaggerated because of ESPN's attempt to exploit Texas Cable subscribers. If they want ridiculous money they can go to The B1G. If they want to maintain control they should stay in the new SWC. The rest of the conferences have too many obstacles to overcome either with geography, academics, or cultural fit. In the end I think they stay put regardless of if anyone else someday leaves. [/QUOTE]
