The breakup was messy at first for the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners after they jointly announced their departure from the Big 12 for the SEC way back in summer 2021.
But according to Inside Texas, conference officials are working to ensure that doesn’t happen again during the programs’ eventual departure, most likely in 2024 – a year early.
