The Houston Chronicle is reporting this morning that the Longhorn Network is no longer considered an "impediment" to Texas joining the Pac 12+.
The Chronicle story indicates that the LHN could be reworked as a regional Texas network, incorporating Texas Tech into its coverage fold. That would merge perfectly within the Pac 12 preferred model, and still allow Texas to retain the notion of a Texas-focused network.

This is also consistent with OKC sports reporter Dean Blevins reported the other night, specifically that the Longhorn Network would be "reworked" to fit in the Pac 12.
I think the handwriting is on the wall in all this - OU, Ok State, UT, and Texas Tech to the Pac 12.
Stay tuned.
