Sooners, Longhorns greats talk about move to SEC

With the move to the SEC official, the conference released a video with Sooners and Longhorns legends like Bob Stoops, Patty Gasso, and Baker Mayfield talking about the move.

It’s a great day to be a Sooner as the University of Oklahoma makes the official move to the Southeastern Conference. Joining the SEC doesn’t simply have football ramifications as the conference boasts some of the best programs in the country in softball, baseball, track and field, women’s gymnastics, and women’s basketball.

Oklahoma and Texas are leveling up with the move.

Over at the SEC Network, Sooners and Longhorns legends like [autotag]Bob Stoops[/autotag], [autotag]Blake Griffin[/autotag], T.J. Ford, [autotag]Patty Gasso[/autotag], [autotag]Baker Mayfield[/autotag], Colt McCoy and more discussed what it means for the Red River Rivals to join the [autotag]SEC[/autotag].

Stoops spoke about the pageantry of the University of Oklahoma in addition to the excellence of the program that makes it a fantastic fit for its new home. Gameday in Norman will match that of some of the best programs in the SEC. And with 50 conference titles, seven national championships, and seven Heisman winners, the success of the football program and the athletic department as a whole makes the SEC better.

Oklahoma’s softball and women’s gymnastics programs are the best in the nation. They head to a conference that is arguably the deepest for their respective sports.

The University of Oklahoma is venturing into a whole new world, but it’s a world that better fits what OU has accomplished in their history as an athletics program.
