ChiefsPlanet - Funny Stuff New Conference re-alignment thread

I love the thought of going to the East and having a crossover with Arkansas; freakin' love it.

Oh, and if you are salivating at the idea of the SEC - do NOT read Joe Strauss's twitter right now. It's not sunshine and roses.

"Insecurity in its DNA" was his last one.

Seriously, Mizzou, if you blow this, I will seriously **** you up.

He's saying there's insecurity in MU's DNA? Because of the Big 10 thing? I'm pretty sure this is different, but then again, they were probably sure the invite was there the 1st time as well.

I have a good feeling about Coach Boom.

Georgia needs to get rid of Richt.

Yes, and the evidently MU (as an entity) hasn't even completely decided if they'd leave the XII.

It's Strauss essentially saying the same thing the MU fatalists have been saying for months: "We're Mizzou - we will **** this up"

I sometimes feel that the whole program is little more than a kicked puppy.

C'mon dammit - don't **** this up. 3/4s of the schools in the country would dream of this shot, don't waffle and blow it.

Somehow, I have this fatalist image of Deaton listening to KK and thinking, "you know, this guy is sharp as a tack".

I'm seeing this rumor coming from 3 independent places. Hope there's something to it.

Carolina's 247sports website The Big Spur just published an update to VIP/pay members that basically states:
1. Mizzou does have the votes for acceptance if placed in the East.
2. Alabama is adamant that they not loose their rivalry game with Tennessee.
3. Alabama is also demanding that Auburn not be moved to the West, due to the fact it moves the Iron Bowl to earlier in the season.
4. Article states that with Mizzou in the East, they would get Arkansas as the cross divisional opponent. Carolina, would be paired with Texas A&M.

The BIG news from this update states that the SEC presidents/chancellors will meet this weekend with Commissioner Slive to vote on Mizzou.

For those who are members to 247sports.com heres the link: http://southcarolina.247sports.com/B...ated-4739784/1

Red flags raise when the source states that an institution will not "loose their rivalry game."

Reads like a CP post.

Is MU football better than KU football right now? Obviously. Is MU more valuable to other conferences? Yes.

So they got that going for them.

Agreed, but to say the football programs of both of these schools hasn't been cyclic, would be dishonest.
History would show us, both have periods of being door mats, and then getting stronger and more competitive.

Neither has sustained a high level of play for more than a few years.

What Mizzou's done recently should have been the norm all along. Pinkel, for all his flaws, has built a program. They expect to be good year in and year out. Players know they can come to Mizzou and be drafted highly into the NFL... the expectation is to win. It's a shift in attitude and commitment, and I don't see it going the other way any time soon.
