This is a thread about conference realignment. So if you have any that pertains to Kansas feel free to post it.
Fesco is usually dreaming some Jayhawk stuff up he may have something. |

Why should MU stay if the SEC is a better deal for them? |

Any word on Mizzou's impending Big 10 invitation?

Heh, this was funny.
http://infiniteturbo.com/2011/09/28/...uld-head-east/ Now that Texas A&M has left the Big XII, the SEC is looking for it’s next expansion candidate. Would Mizzou be a good fit? Of course. Huge TV market, good overall AD, great fan base, etc. The only real knock on Missouri has been it’s public affinity for the Big Ten. Why Mizzou should want to join the SEC rather than continue shamelessly flirting with the Big Ten hoping for an invite: 1. The SEC is a better league. Seems like this should be obvious, but it needs to be said. The Big Ten is certainly a good conference, but they also consistently get their ass kicked when they face the SEC in bowl games. If you have an opportunity to be a part of the best conference in the country, you take it. 2. Academics don’t actually matter in an athletic conference. Missouri, only Texas really uses this excuse, and it is because they are afraid of the competition of the SEC. Don’t give me that AAU shit. Nobody actually cares about fucking research while they watch an 11 AM football game. A&M is an AAU member, too. So is Florida, so is Vanderbilt. You don’t automatically get dumber by hanging out with Texas Tech, do you? It isn’t contagious. 3. The Big Ten kinda fucked you over last time. They really did. Made you look really bad. This would be like being cheated on and then dating the way hotter friend. It’s actually kind of shocking that they convinced you that they were attractive in the first place. 4. The Big Ten loves morning games. Wanna wake up at 8 AM, choke down some bloody marys and watch about 16 pass attempts in 40 degree weather? I sure as shit don’t. 5. I had to google your rivalries. Time for some new ones. Don’t get all worked up at me, I’m on your team here. But, seriously. 6. The Big XII sucks. C’mon. Don’t flip-flop. It sucks. You thought it sucked last year, you know it sucks now. |

We'll see how this all turns out in about a week. MU being Oklahoma's bitch for a couple of weeks will tell the tale.

And how is Mizzou OU's bitch? Seems the folks in Norman are UT's bitch, considering the Pac quickly did not want them without the Longhorns. |

Let's be perfectly honest; MU could still screw this up. The BOC, Deaton, etc. all still have the opportunity to screw this up. It's getting more and more difficult, but they could still do it.

True, but each passing moment that we don't hear "We are a faithful member of the Big XII conference" or some such drivel is a moment closer we are to leaving.
