Texas?

According to a story in the Detroit News, there is a report that the Big Ten has had "preliminary exchanges" with Texas concerning expansion.

Really?

No way does Texas join the Big Ten. First, there's the obvious geographical issues. Texas is deep in Big 12 country. Second, there's no way the Big 12 would let the (arguably) highest profile team leave the conference. Third, does the Big Ten really want to add a team that will come in and dominate the conference? Penn State was a good team when they joined the conference, but they've still only won two titles. How long would it take Texas to beat that? Three seasons.

No way does this happen.
