You can sit here and set up straw men all you want. Nobody is saying this is a magic pill. But Missouri has decent academic chops and schools that don't are not part of the equation. The Big 10 has a reputation for academics. Even if you think it came from thin air, reputations come about for a reason.

All I remember is vailpass trumpeting Iowa academics and somebody posting a study from a reputable source listing academic standings by conference...

I might dig it up.

Yea, I don't think anyone is making any crazy claims when discussing the possible move or how it effects academics. It is all interesting stuff.

But I thought the academics were the important part! It's been regurgitated here ad nauseum.

It is an important part. I said nobody is making the crazy claims. Like the ones you are making up.
