Texas A&M and the SEC continue to dance closer and closer to one another… without actually touching. Sort of like Baptists.

A&M athletic director Bill Byrne blogged yesterday and listed the “Bigger Ten,” the Pac-12 and the SEC as possible landing spots for the Aggies. Today, Ole Miss athletic director Pete Boone shared a couple of quick notes on SEC expansion and A&M… without ever really connecting the two:

“The SEC has to be very mindful of any institution that would seek to come in. A lot of it has to do with location. So much of it has to do with culture. Texas A&M has a rich culture and history, not just with its agriculture and military but also in athletics and academics.”

Am I the only who wishes A&M and the SEC could just work this out, make an announcement, and let the rest of us focus on football?
