So you're saying Houston to the Big 10? Got it.

Gallogly is going to do what is best for OU….and not what best helps some other university or group of universities.

As James Gallogly was being introduced as University of Oklahoma president Monday, a viewer of the Tulsa World’s Facebook Live coverage of the event remarked: “Sure hope he likes football.”

“I’m a true Sooner,” Gallogly told his audience. “If we lose a game or two I’m just as upset as you.”

A few minutes later, David Boren’s successor borrowed an OU ball cap worn to the stage by a member of the RUF/NEKS spirit group, and then, with Lincoln Riley and Bob Stoops a few feet away, flashed “Horns Down” while the band struck up “Boomer Sooner.”

So yes, it appears Gallogly likes football just fine. He has an OU degree

PS: The OU ball cap that Gallogly put on was well worn and full of sweat stains from body salts

Finding this thread is like walking into your brand new house, and finding toilet paper from the old house stuck to your shoe.

Finding this thread is like walking into your brand new house, and finding out that someone already took a big shit in the middle of your living room.

Fixed it for you.

[MarkStoops]

First post of the new MarkStoops era!

Here’s hoping this president can be as good as D-Bo was during his tenure.

The auto-save feature is a nice touch on this board. Holla!

[NickZepp84]

We're staying in the Big 12 /endthread

[Dr. X]

Oh shit... Nick Zepp is back.

[soonergrad]

Gallogly is supposed to be known for his business acumen. This being the case, its obvious OU is headed to the SEC as this is where we can/will make the most money going forward. This is what good businessmen do - make the most money.

[SoonerHank]

We’re going to the B1G.

[SoonerHank]

We’re going with houston to the B1G.

[SoonerHank]

We’re joining the AAC.

[Dr. X]

Fuck 'em all, let's re-form the Big 8.

[SoonerBurglar]

The thread that will never die. This one will be here for Armageddon.

[ElectricSooner]

Big 12 absorbs Pac 12 and kicks Baylor and Oregon out of the conference.

[ElectricSooner]

actually I hate everything about the PAC, if we steal their schools great, but I don't want anything to do with those lowlife-ne'r do wells who turned their back on us in the first place because they thought they were better than us.

Pac-12 Networks president Mark Shuken: On equity options, the secure “fortress,” AT&T negotiations and looming Tier One deals

By JON WILNER


Scott has bet his legacy and campus budgets on signing a blockbuster deal, and the prospects for success will depend, in part, on the valuation of the Pac-12 Networks at the time by potential bidders, whether it’s ESPN and Fox or Amazon and Facebook.

“We have an obligation to be prepared for the next rights agreement,’’ Shuken said.

With that in mind, he recently named Larry Meyers as executive vice president/content. Meyers’ role, in short: Drive content strategy across the linear, digital and social platforms, on big screen TVs and smart phones, with current students and older fans alike.

The value of the Pac-12’s media rights will depend partly on the level of audience engagement, Shuken explained, and the engagement level depends, to a certain extent, on the quality of the content.

Holy shit. IT HAPPENED!!

Please don't anyone tell Koppoe about this place.

[EdwordL]

Too late. He already commented on post #27.

[billybud]

Oh...this is like a speakeasy...word of mouth....no ign on the door.

[ekeithly]

Please don't anyone tell Koppoe about this place.

This place doesnt have the rainbow sparkles to forwarn you ahead of time to avoid the post

[Sooner76]

Hopefully this isn't taken over by assholes from other schools

[EdwordL]

I've been interested in Conf Realignment since 2011, and OU followers seemed to generate the most interest of all the message boards. Besides, I'm a Mountaineer alum who has supported Jayhawk BB since 1989, and I have liked Sooner FB since the early 50s, when my dad taught me what a great coach Bud Wilkinson was.

[ephemeral]

I'm an asshole from another school.

How's it going?

[Longcrawler]

Let other schools take over this thread, by all means, it'll be fun to watch losers bitch/piss/moan among themselves. And every now and then someone can ask them how come they don't go to their own board and shit all over it, like the old board.

[Mr_Robot_ulism]

Can we just burn thread

[Bluegrass]

I'll try to be nice. Just sayin' :)

[Nashvegas]

Satin would throw a fit if OU went to the $ec

Flugar just broke another Gopher story on twitter and is being lauded by the Minnesota local press. Yeah, to compare Dude of West Virginia to Flugar is a joke. I’m not saying Flugar has the Oklahoma & Kansas talking to Nebraska story correct, but the guy has sources.

Of course they’re talking. Peer schools in the same region, and one has just had a major change in administration. It would be more newsworthy if they were not talking.

[Mazeppa]

I vote to abolish this thread.

I believe every "major outlet" has a source and probably has some nugget of truth in it (even the Dude at one point probably did), however the problem is that 98% of everything these folks says is more than likely speculation with only a small bit actually being true.

What does fabric have to do with it?

[ATL1979]

Shouldn't the thread title have something like an XIV in it or something, even though the posts are starting at zero?

Are we moving yet?

But did he drop his keys?

[XLance]

We now know that the ACCN and SECN are being marketed as a pair. Join one conference, get exposure in the areas that both footprints encompass.
Where would Oklahoma want exposure? The west coast? The midwest? or up and down the east coast.... across the southeast and all of Texas (guaranteed) ?

[ren.hoek]

Saw that, very interesting. ACCN and SECN get carriage on Altice in NY, NJ, PA, CT. I'm sure ND helps the ACCN in the northeast and maybe even OH and into Chicago. Hopefully the ACCN will get carriage in TX and TN with the SECN.

[OUReality]

This thread will not be official until we get 10 pages of JRsec, XLANCE, & the Nebraka guy fighting about which conference is the best

[Julius]

PAC is not going to sell part of thier PACN equity to Disney(LHN).
