Also, Sorry but the PAC-10 isn't letting A &M and Tech in, they like the BIG10insist on thier members being AAU Research schools, and Tech and A & M are far off from that distinction, the Texas Trio's only route would be to go to the SEC if it is a must that they stay together.

Edited since Dawgfan covered my point regarding A&M being in the AAU not to mention they are ranked slightly better than Colorado in the US News and World Report rankings.
