**** so we go from having to put up with whiny KU fans to possibly DaKCMan.

Just shoot me now...


:)

Maybe you all will STFU about me pimping the Awesome SEC and talking about Florida.


...probably not. ;)

That's a balanced, but brutal division. In basketball, Mizzou could probably win that division with regularity if Carlton doesn't **** it up.

I am already getting tired of you... :D

Perhaps some here can help an old codger understand how teams travel.

Back in the days of the Big 8 (yep went to school during that period), bus travel was the means of getting teams around. But, say, MU goes to the SEC. What are they going to do? Fly or spend several days to get to Florida? Can't fly from Columbia directly.

The same goes for KU, KSU, & ISU should the Big 12 goes down the tubes and they wind up in some eastern league.

I understand the PAC 10 does something to go to SoCal to Seattle, but never gave it much thought on the travel arragngements.

Damn - all the talk about football and I completely spaced on basketball.

Yeah - Mizzou should do pretty well in basketball if we can manage to get ourselves a decent coach after shitcanning Haith.

(Unfortunately, it certainly appears that he's survived the Miami thing, so it'll take 3 or 4 mediocre seasons first...)

I've got Tecate in my fridge right now that y'all can have. Also some High Life.

No, seriously, they are really in there. Please come down and drink them for me.

Yep. Football is going to be brutal and we will be lucky to be in the top half of the conference but basketball we should be near the top. Of course we will have replaced our annual rapings by KU with Kentucky.

Yeah...but some of us wouldn't have to travel so far to see an occasional football or basketball game.

Well the PAC-12 isn't expanding

Sooooo Texas is going to do what?

That explains OU and Texas' sudden desire to save the conference. Maybe it's the right move, maybe it's not, but if I was Mizzou I would run, run, and run.

I hope Texas ends up with nowhere to go.

Shit.

You know exactly what Texas is going to do now - the same thing they've always done.

If the PAC doesn't expand, OU probably stays in the XII with the rest of the gang. If so, Deaton's not going to pull the trigger on this thing.

If the PAC doesn't expand, I don't think MU moves. There are too many people within this administration that are entirely too resistant to change.

I wonder if this makes everyone put their guns back in their holsters though.
