AUSTIN, Texas—The presidents and athletic directors of Texas and Texas A&M have met to discuss their programs since Colorado is leaving the Big 12 to join the Pac-10.
Nebraska is weighing a move to the Big Ten.
Congressman Chet Edwards of Waco — home to Baylor, the only private school in the Big 12 — is urging Texas legislators to immediately hold public hearings on any potential move by the schools.
The Associated Press reports a person briefed about the discussions said the situation was “still fluid” and the Texas schools could stay in the Big 12.
The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said everyone was waiting for Nebraska’s expected announcement.
The Pac-10 is reportedly interested in inviting Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech to form a 16-team league. The Aggies could also head to the Southeastern Conference.
