ChiefsPlanet - Funny Stuff New Conference re-alignment thread

Mizzou in the SEC will be pretty sweet for us. Should be able to develop a pretty good rivalry with Arkansas as it's an easy 5 hour drive, the easiest travel from school to school for either team.

Hey, this could start a rivalry with Arkansas.

Mike Anderson vs Mizzou.

Wow, I honestly didn't think about that.

Yeah. We won't be competing with anyone in the SEC in basketball this year, methinks. Unless Anderson is some kind of freaking miracle worker (which some around here would have you believe).

I wonder if this will make DGB more likely to sign with Mizzou.

Arkansas and Mizzou should be a great rivalry from the get go. You couldn't write a better script to get it started than having Anderson go to Arky right before Mizzou comes to the SEC. I'm really looking forward to it.

First game Anderson comes back, he should get a 2 second applause.

Then he needs to be harassed like there is no tomorrow.

It's interesting for sure...

How could the SEC tremors affect Dorial Green-Beckham's decision?

Arkansas and Alabama are both in the prestigious SEC, and the even more prestigious SEC West, and will stay there regardless of conference additions. Alabama is also a perennial contender for the national title.

Missouri is in the crumbling Big 12, and have thus far been left dry after banging on Chateau SEC's door.

Green-Beckham wants to stay close to home, and even assuming that he has school spirit for Mizzou, he'd be hard-pressed to justify to himself committing to an "on the rise" program in a conference that is falling apart under the smothering of Texas, the king of Hungry Hungry Hippos: Media Blitz version.

If Mizzou actually makes it into the SEC—and they seem to be the leading contenders for the 14th school—they will have a real shot at him. Until then, Arkansas is quivering with anticipation.

It's really only about 6 1/2 hours from Columbia to Lexington....a 7 hour drive to Nashville...

That's what I don't understand, the people who argue these Big XII teams going to the SEC will hurt their recruiting. I don't think it's going to hurt it at all. Yeah maybe you had a couple less Texas players, I guess. But I think this whole idea of moving to the SEC hurting any team's recruiting is absurd to me.
