You call them a basketball school. Why do you think they want to leave the best basketball conference if basketball matters? Its because a shitty football program in a mediocre football conference still generates more profit than a good basketbball school in the premier basketball conference. |

All the conferences that are deemed desirable to be in have football and bball money rolling in. Big East Football is not good. Pitt leaving makes it worse. If the Big 12 had shitty football everyone would want to leave as well. |

This thread seem to be developing a case of the AIDS as well. Let's see if I can pro-tease inhibitor it back to respectability...
Talked to a few people this morning. I'm convinced of a few things: 1) The national media outlets assuming Missouri is GOOD in the Big 12 are overlooking what I think is obvious to those of us who follow Mizzou closely: Last night was a warning shot fired over the bow of the rest of the Big 12. That looked like a very carefully scripted show, designed to set Missouri up to either bolt or make big demands of OU and Tex. 2) The phrase "Proud members of the Big 12" was purposely left out by Deaton. If you start hearing them use this phrasing, we'll know Missouri is staying put. 3) The SEC wants to get to 14, and it wants to do it with Missouri if the Tigers can extricate themselves from the mess that is the Big 12. 4) If UT and OU make the concessions Missouri wants, the Tigers might stay. Of course, UT didn't even make all the concessions OU wanted, so its doubtful they make them for 'lil ole Missouri.' |

What concessions would need to be made to make Missouri, as well as the rest of the Big 12, happy and content with this league's future? To me, the linchpin in all of this is LHN, and I don't see any scenario where UT modifies it. More likely, I expect they will either bring OU into the fold, or pair with ESPN to help OU do something similar. |
