The summer is supposed to be a slow time on the calendar for college sports – at least until this year. Since the day March Madness ended, we’ve had so… many… topics to discuss. There was Roy Williams retiring, the one-time transfer rule being passed (and the transfer portal subsequently catching fire after it), Coach K retiring, a proposed expansion to the College Football Playoff, Supreme Court rulings, Name, Image, Likeness coming into effect. On and on.
Yet there is no story bigger than the one that dropped at SEC Media Days on Wednesday, as the Houston Chronicle reported that Texas and Oklahoma are in the midst of pursuing membership to the SEC.
