Nah, he was just smart enough to realize that OU sucks and got as far away as he could.
Worked out pretty well for the three-time Superbowl champ, Superbowl MVP, and Hall of Fame member.
Hah!
All that stuff was after college, and there's not a provable cause-and-effect between Troy leaving OU and winning Super Bowls with Dallas.
OTOH, Jamelle Holieway led the Sooners to the 1985 MNC after Aikman was injured.
We'll never know if they would have accomplished that with Troy still at QB.
Personally, I think it worked out well for both parties. Aikman flourished in a more passing-oriented offense at UCLA and OU got back to basics with the wishbone, going 33-3 from '85 through '87.
EDIT: Oh, yeah. Texas blows. That is all.
