UT and the University of Oklahoma first announced their intentions to leave the Big 12 Conference for the SEC in 2021. Both schools are poised to leave the Big 12 one year early — after the 2023-2024 athletic year.

The decision comes just a week after news surfaced that the University of Texas and the University of Oklahoma planned to leave the Big 12, sending shockwaves through college sports and many Texas lawmakers who feel the expansion will have drastic consequences on the remaining Texas schools in the Big 12.

"To me, it changes the landscape of the sport, and I wonder what kind of path it sets us on for the sport long term," says Sam Khan, a Texas college football writer for The Athletic.

An announcement to let their media rights agreement with the conference expire comes days after the universities signaled interest in joining the Southeastern Conference.

Four prominent lawmakers — one each with ties to Baylor University, Texas Christian University, Texas Tech University and Texas A&M University — met with Gov. Greg Abbott’s staff Thursday, one day after news broke that the University of Texas and the University of Oklahoma had reached out to the Southeastern Conference about joining.
