The college basketball royalty in this country is located in Durham. When King K enters the room you bball subjects may kiss the ring.

You're thinking of K State.

It won't have much impact on me at all. You need the degree to get the job, but after that, all that matters is how you produce.

Missouri has one of the top programs in the country. The Big 10 move wouldn't change that at all.

I will enjoy telling everyone about my Big 10 degree, though! ;)

You hardly need defend yourself or even dignify the cretin with a reply to a statement as patently ignorant as the one he made.

20 years of history, no matter how successful, does not make you royalty of anything.

It goes:

UK
UNC
KU

In that order.

Duke falls into the same category as UCLA. Yes, they're powerhouses, but they're not what the 3 kings are.

Are you under the impression that being doctorally prepared renders a person both internet challenged and nocturnal?

I have a Big 10 degree. It isn't worth the paper it's written on.

UCLA below Kansas? LMAO
Lets poll the nation and see what they say. Then let's poll the nation and see what percentage would be willing to eliminae college basketball if it meant saving college football.
Then let's see who gives a shit.

You get out of education what you put into it. If it isn't worth the paper its written on I have a hard time thinking that is the fault of the educational establishment.

I'm glad to answer the question, though, as I don't normally post this much. I certainly wouldn't be posting this much during the semester or if I was currently working on a grant.

That being said, there are things I should be doing and this Big 10 thing is clearly a huge weakness of mine.

I would tend to agree, and 1a is just down the road. Or vice-versa.

Just for fun, I'd follow up with Kentucky and UCLA.

#5 could be anyone from the following group and not get much argument from me:

Kansas, Indiana, and potentially Louisville.

JMHO.
