Did Texas A n M have an invite to join the SEC... or a conditional invite?

We are not saying that they, Texas A&M aren't worthy of being in the SEC or anything like that. Although, what has become apparent is that TV wanted to keep the status quo. If Texas A&M left, or Texas, there would be chaos in the college football landscape. Texas leaves to the PAC ; sheer chaos. Texas A&M leaves to the SEC; the Big 12 implodes and you have it chaos. The 'man' of TV didn't want that, so they upped the ante. Ironically, Texas A&M's flirtation with the SEC created the mess we are in now, a watered down Big 12-2. Not that we blame them, but we think the SEC offer was conditional on the other teams bolting for the PAC 10, for certain money coffers. If this is not the reasoning behind the alignment, your administration's personnel are cowards, and we can not come to believe that!
