all right bobby burton on taxis i was joking but no i'm not a joke you survived arch mania

i don't i can't remember the last time i saw something like that i don't know if i've ever seen

something like that at media days really um of course i wasn't here for mansell or yeah yeah i mean i

i can i can see the tbo or the Mansell kind of thing happening.

I stayed out of it.

I had one of our guys recorded it for us so we could hear him.

But I think that it's really combining together of several different aspects.

Right?

You have the Manning name first of all which is

you know as i i will say this as a texas guy you didn't know that the manning name carried that

much weight in the deep south and the southeast and now you get a clear understanding of that

so that's interesting to us the first family family of the SEC. Yeah, I mean, that's that you get that feel, right? And I didn't know that. I'll be honest with you, Bobby, when he commit to Texas, I don't think, I'm pretty sure the move to the SEC had not been announced. I felt disappointed. I was like, he's not going to play in the SEC.

That doesn't make any sense.

So, but maybe he must have known something.

You never know.

People that are above our pay grade know things that we don't necessarily know at times.

How far out did you start hearing rumors Texas

joining? I did not. I mean, it came out of the blue for me personally. Now, I knew they were

interested in changing conferences because Texas had changed its chairman of the border regions.

A guy named Kevin Eltyph came into the University of Texas,

and I felt like I learned pretty quickly that Kevin wanted to do things,

not to shake things up,
