I don't know what to think about the Big 12. GRatned, I don't have a dog in this fight, but it just seems like it's UT and OU....then piss on everyone else.
and every other team in the league - sans MU - seems to be ok with that.

I don't follow the Big 12, so don't flame me to badly; just giving an outside-looking-in view.

I don't think we can stop at Louisville, because they are stuck in the Big East for a while. If the rumors can be trusted, I think we go to 12. There appears to be a lot of votes in favor of 12.

A few years ago sure, which is partly why Nebraska left. However, the Big 12 has just adopted the same revenue-sharing model that the SEC has, so that really isn't the case any longer.

A scenario could be to go to 11 and stop. Ten play the next two seasons, Louisville sits out, the BIG XII gets their full contract money from Fox, and then when it gets closer for Louisville to join, they add #12. There would be no rush to get to 12 if you know Louisville has to wait to get in, and they could focus on getting the school they want, instead of grabbing whomever is available.

The others don't have a hell of a lot of choice right now. Mizzou is only doing what's available to them (as they should be). If KSU had the option right now and weren't doing something I would be livid...as it stands there's not a hell of a lot they can do unless you're wanting them to petition the MWC for inclusion.

Most, if not all of the rest of the conference wants 12, and once you grant your 6-year media rights you don't have a whole hell of a lot of leverage. (well, OU doesn't have any leverage now anyway, and neither does UT since they don't want to go independent and no one else will take them as-is)

This would be awful. I hope the big 12 tells texas to cram up their pooper because that move would pave the way for texas to follow suit and go independent in football.

When there is that much money involved, there seems to always be a way to bend the rules in your favor.

so the argument for a rolling 6 yr term is that anyone but Texas would be hard pressed to get out of it? :)

The reality is is that Texas will have enough money to get out of just about anything. The only thing you can really do is make as cost prohibitive as possible to make Texas at least think about it before they take off.

The rolling 6 yr term would be as close to ironclad as possible, even for Texas...but other than Texas, do you see any other school that would even think about trying to break it?

Doesn't matter. KSU had a B12 road record under Asbury/Wooly of 4 and 100,000. In one year of Huggins that all changed. You can turn around a CBBall program that quickly.

I don't think it matters. College BBall does turn around much quicker than football. I am sure the influx of money from the BIG XII tv contract will help TCU get some better BBall recruits and a better coach.

Only if Bill Snyder goes and turns them around. Tulane is pretty bad. I hate K-State as a rival and opponent, but Bill Snyder's turnaround of that program is one of the greatest in all of sports. K-State was an embarrassment in football for my lifetime, and my parents lifetime before Snyder came.

Yea, we're pretty bad at basketball but TCU and it's boosters are serious about stepping that program up to the level of our other sports.

The impending big least move immediately paid off in the type of recruits we have been able to at least consider TCU. Moving to the big 12 will keep that trend up.

Pants 10-06-2011 02:19 PM

The only negative about the TCU move is that we have to deal with KC native now. He's like a slightly worse version of Rustshack.

Maybe instead of being surprised you should think before you post.

The book is hardly "pro-KU".

In fact there are many things in it apparently that Self and the rest of the administration isn't too happy about.

It's a wonderful feeling to cruise across into MO and leave with a trophy.

Not sure how to perceive this. Is Mizzou gone, and that is why the trip in cancelled, and is Neinas trying to save a little face by saying he will visit at some point? Or does this mean Mizzou is back in the fold and there is no need for a visit?

Hope it means we are leaving.

I was simply backing up Kstater's exposing of MU fans who are constantly posting tweets that make it look as if MU is out the door and ignoring the tweets and information that indicate MU is staying.

DeArmond started out neutral on the subject now he only post things that lean towards MU leaving.

Kstater posted a tweet that made it look like Mizzou was leaving, then he posted one that indicated the opposite (the rescheduling of the visit by the commish).

I posted a link to a DeArmond article where he voiced no opinion either way, and went out of his way to be neutral, talking about how you have to consider the source of tweets and such when deciding the validity of a news story.
