Texas, Oklahoma inform Big 12 they will not renew grant of media rights, make first formal step toward joining SEC

Posted on July 26, 2021July 26, 2021 by Santiago Leon

The inevitable became reality on Monday, as Texas and Oklahoma began the formal process of unwinding from the Big 12 conference and joining the SEC. It marks the first official step in a potentially seismic move that solidifies the SEC as the strongest conference in college sports and will likely send the other power conferences scrambling to catch up.

Formally, OU and Texas informed the Big 12 officially that they didn’t plan to extend the grant of rights with the league past the 2024-25 season. The schools issued a joint statement announcing their intentions.

In reality, Oklahoma and Texas began the first official step in a process that’s expected to end with them joining the SEC. While the timeline of when they’d play in the SEC is still muddled, the next steps are clearer.

Texas and Oklahoma jointly issue statement informing the Big 12 they plan to leave.
