In what turned out to be an interview on the “On Second Thought” podcast last week, former longtime Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds shared his opinion on a number of different topics. That included how the Texas football program (among other sports) nearly wound up playing in the ACC if it was up to him and the school left the Big 12 back in conference realignment roughly one decade ago.
There was also the discussion about how the Longhorns nearly had an arrangement with the in-state rival Texas A&M Aggies for a joint television network.
