You say that like it’s a bad thing 😂It's so obvious Venables ain't it. What a colossal mistake by OU. It will be felt for years. Think Gary Gibbs.
The new conference isn't the real reason for OU's decline. 6-7 in both conferences, including 6 conference losses both of those years. The SEC will make it harder to rebound. Might become as relevant for football as the Hogs.
Yeah... but OU will figure out a way to screw all of college football like they did in the 80's with their lawsuit vs the NCAA over revenue..It's so obvious Venables ain't it. What a colossal mistake by OU. It will be felt for years. Think Gary Gibbs.

It also led to Arkansas bolting to the SEC, the SWC imploding, the big 12 imploding, and Tulsa's slow slide to the ranks of the kid picked last for dodgeball.Well, FSU was talking about VC a decade ago so I’m not sure OU was at the forefront of anything. My sense is industry approached several programs they viewed as financially vulnerable a long time ago,
As for OU and lawsuits, there should be a sign in the Case Center thanking Andy Coats and Switzer for that lawsuit.
For close to two decades you’ve enjoyed a telecast of nearly every TU game in almost all sports as a result of that lawsuit. Before that, nada. Now, you can argue that it destroyed TU’s season ticket holder base, but as a fan, I am extremely grateful to see TU sports every weekend and not just six or seven times a year when they play OU in football and Louisville in basketball.
