New Conference re-alignment thread

The old one has AIDS.

Anyways, Chip Brown from Orangebloods.com reports OU may apply to the Pac-12 by the end of the month.

Oklahoma will apply for membership to the Pac-12 before the end of the month, and Oklahoma State is expected to follow suit, a source close to OU's administration told Orangebloods.com.

Even though Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott said Friday the Pac-12 was not interested in expansion at this time, OU's board of regents is fed up with the instability in the Big 12, the source said.

The OU board of regents will meet within two weeks to formalize plans to apply for membership to the Pac-12, the source said.

Messages left Sunday night with OU athletic director Joe Castiglione and Oklahoma State athletic director Mike Holder were not immediately returned.

If OU follows through with what appears to be a unanimous sentiment on the seven-member Oklahoma board of regents to leave the Big 12, realignment in college athletics could be heating back up. OU's application would be matched by an application from Oklahoma State, the source said, even though OSU president Burns Hargis and mega-booster Boone Pickens both voiced their support for the Big 12 last Thursday.

There is differing sentiment about if the Pac-12 presidents and chancellors are ready to expand again after bringing in Colorado and Utah last year and landing $3 billion TV contracts from Fox and ESPN. Colorado president Bruce Benson told reporters last week CU would be opposed to any expansion that might bring about east and west divisions in the Pac-12.

Currently, there are north and south divisions in the Pac-12. If OU and OSU were to join, Larry Scott would have to get creative.

Scott's orginal plan last summer was to bring in Colorado, Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State and put them in an eastern division with Arizona and Arizona State. The old Pac-8 schools (USC, UCLA, Cal, Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington and Washington State) were to be in the west division.

Colorado made the move in June 2010, but when Texas A&M was not on board to go west, the Big 12 came back together with the help of its television partners (ABC/ESPN and Fox).

If Oklahoma and Oklahoma State were accepted into the Pac-12, there would undoubtedly be a hope by Larry Scott that Texas would join the league. But Texas sources have indicated UT is determined to hang onto the Longhorn Network, which would not be permissible in the Pac-12 in its current form.

Texas sources continue to indicate to Orangebloods.com that if the Big 12 falls apart, the Longhorns would consider "all options."

Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe held an emergency conference call 10 days ago with league presidents excluding Oklahoma, Texas and Texas A&M and asked the other league presidents to "work on Texas" because Beebe didn't think the Pac-12 would take Oklahoma without Texas.

Now, it appears OU is willing to take its chances with the Pac-12 with or without Texas.

There seemed to be a temporary pause in any possible shifting of the college athletics' landscape when Baylor led a charge to tie up Texas A&M's move to the Southeastern Conference in legal red tape. BU refused to waive its right to sue the SEC over A&M's departure from the Big 12, and the SEC said it would not admit Texas A&M until it had been cleared of any potential lawsuits.

Baylor, Kansas and Iowa State have indicated they will not waive their right to sue the SEC.

It's unclear if an application by OU to the Pac-12 would draw the same threats of litigation against the Pac-12 from those Big 12 schools.

Stay tuned.

My apologies, I guess this was just for last year.

Missouri would be the 7th team, and we might be better than any team in that division right now.

Well, that would put SEC at 16.

Big 10 has 14 - Iowa State & Notre Dame make sense from a football perspective, but ND likes to be independent, right? So maybe K-State? Although I believe K-State & KU are handcuffed…

Chokelahoma seriously wants to join the SEC after consistently getting destroyed by SEC teams* in bowl games?

*SEC teams that don't have 75% of their roster opt-out prior to the bowl game.

Apparently Oklahoma shut it down, Texas didn’t. The last few years it’s seemed like if a conference were to implode it would be the PAC. PAC and Big12 merger if these happen? You’d think the B1G and ACC would also look to get to 16 teams quickly.

The PAC isn't touching Baylor unless they turn into a "religious" school akin to Harvard. Can't imagine they want to be associated with K-State, Okie State and on..

**** Iowa State


ND makes sense, but I'd rather take Oklahoma State or Baylor than Iowa State.

The Big 12 should have tried to raid the Pac 12 when they had the chance last year.

The Pac 12 was down, the Big 12 wasn't dealing with new realignment defection rumors, etc.

I think its because while they can through their weight around in the BIG 12, when it comes to dealing with or replacing the NCAA they fear that they won't have a seat at the table when it comes to figuring out what's next.

I don't know shit about SEC football but its a religion down here. Cant help but hear all the talk. They still bitch about the weak Missouri team being added to the "other" side.

No ****ing way in 100 years does that alignment take place.

Alabama. Auburn. Florida and Georgia will never agree to be in the same conference and the other conference be the "weak" conference.
