Question for MU fans.

If tomorrow morning it was announced that TCU, BYU and Louisville were joing the Big 12 would you still want to leave?

LMAO

Get back on your corner! = "Partner" through KU eyes.

If Tulane would be in the mix, I'd definitely want to stay.

I think you are trolling. This statement is absurd. They tried to leave your conference. If they had their way, they would have left your school out in the wind to fend for itself. There is nothing about that is remotely definable as "pretty good business partners." That doesn't mean you can't co-exist amicably in a professional setting, but otherwise your definition and my definition of a decent business partner is widely different.

Not without the concessions on LHN and Tier 1/2 length.

This isn't about the teams in the conference so much as it is about the instability caused by the LHN.

Well then those KU fans aren't looking at numbers.

It's Kansas. There are millions of people with millions of opinions.

The Big 12 is dealing with this issue because UT is just simply so much more massive in scale then any other school in the league.

Admittedly its hard for them to do anything without it looking like;

"woah! What's UT up to now?!?"

I'm not saying you just blinding go into the future. Obviously the laws and terms of this league need to be reevaluated and rewritten.

And if it took UT getting told by another league that you better fix your shit or no one would want you then so be it.

They are an extremely powerful ally to have in college athletics. I don't think you just push and push to get out unless you have some REAL specific reasons for doing so. Reasons MU does not have at this time.

You can't seriously be thinking that Louisville is competitive in football?

You know who thought Texas was a horrible business partner?

Mark Mangino.

Maybe he was on to something after that game.

I agree tk. I certainly wouldn't be business partners with Texas. They have tried to screw their business partners multiple times. I don't get why anyone would trust them.

Which is really what the MU going to the SEC is all about...Trust. MU doesn't trust Texas and they feel like the first chance Texas gets they will screw everyone over and blow everything up. Who would want to be in business with somebody like that?

What instability??

Its their network.

I completely agree with the high school shit. And that is being scaled back as we can see from tonight.

The LHN needs to be more concerned about getting subscribers before anything else. After that then feel free to start your own.

That's what KU did. And they did it years ago.

Well, they just made some more concessions tonight.

Longhorn Network Won't Air Any High School Athletics, According To Report

Texas' Longhorn Network wasn't going to air any high school football games after the NCAA barred them from doing so in August, but there were still questions on what coverage of high school athletics would be allowed. The NCAA had allowed a highlights show, but on Wednesday night it appears that the Longhorn Network won't even air that. According to Orangebloods.com, Texas has decided to avoid any high school content (for six years) as a means to bring peace to the Big 12.

With the Big 12's livelihood settled now that Oklahoma and Texas have decided to stay in the conference, the latter is attempting to make nice by making concessions. This is part of a broader television rights deal for the Big 12. Texas had to agree to the 13-year television rights deal that the conference already had in place last April.

It is possible this television rights deal could keep Missouri from leaving the conference, but the deal isn't likely to be finalized until Thursday.

You're welcome.

Sincerely,
Th University of Missouri

P.S. Deuces.
