Summary

The Cover 3 crew talks the latest on Texas, Oklahoma, the Big 12 and the SEC. While the SEC presidents are expected to vote on Texas and Oklahoma joining the league, with both schools expected to accept any invitations, there is far more drama behind the scenes with the remaining eight Big 12 teams. Chip Patterson, Danny Kanell and Tom Fornelli discuss the Big 12’s cease and desist letter to ESPN and the allegations that schools are being recruited to apply for membership in the AAC. What does this aggressive action mean for conference realignment and what are other fallouts, including the timeline for expansion of the College Football Playoff?
