OU's sole focus now on joining Pac-12
"Prime opportunity for OU officials to meet with the head of the conference they are considering joining. But an OU source said Saturday there were no plans for Scott to meet with the Sooners.
Not because something has gone wrong, but because something went right.
“I don't think anybody needs to go” meet with Scott, the source said, indicating the Pac-12 has become the Sooners' sole focus.
The Pac-12 preference is to add four schools – OU, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech.
The OU source said Scott hopes to meet with University of Texas president William Powers over the weekend.
OU president David Boren stepped out of a cloak of secrecy Friday and said the Sooners were being proactive in deciding their conference future, had interest from multiple conferences and expected to make a decision soon, from 72 hours to two weeks."
