Big East is saying they're holding WVU to their 27 month commitment to the league but WV's press release is saying their membership takes affect July 1, 2012.

Interesting.

You would think WVU has to come next year to offset Mizzou leaving.

Is the SEC out of the loop too on their own expansion?

I couldn't make out the date on the pic of the press release you posted earlier - was it dated this past Saturday or next Monday?

According to the below, it was next Monday.

SEC officials said Friday that the league's web vendor mistakenly published a news release Thursday night announcing Missouri as the conference's newest member.

Missouri officials are currently deciding whether to leave the Big 12 for the SEC. But, judging from the news release published on the SEC's website for a few minutes Thursday night, Missouri apparently already has made up its mind.

The news story on the SEC site had a release date of Oct. 31.

I'd like to hear your answer here.
See below, I never mentioned last Saturday - you did. I was assuming that was what was on your pic of the press release.

Interesting quote on that press release......


""Missouri joins Texas A&M University as the league's two new institutions who will begin full membership on July 1, 2012."

I'm pretty sure today isn't April 1st, but can someone verify that? I don't want to be let down.

it's true. I don't know why anyone thinks it matters. Did anyone really think MU wasn't leaving?

Some people ON THIS SITE claimed that MU didn't have an offer. Seriously.

Just so you know, that is contradicted by every other Mizzou "insider". Alden and Pinkel have been pushing for the SEC for a while. Pinkel especially got pissed off at all the LHN nonsense.

They were all listening to KK and his "there is no interest. None." song and dance.

You are curious about someone other than Mizzou? This is a Mizzou thread dammit! :D

TCU to the BIG 12, WV looks imminent and maybe Louisville
aTm to SEC, and obviously Mizzou.
Syracuse and Pittsburgh left the Big East to join the ACC

Of course Nebraska and Colorado are old news correct?

If I left something out, please feel free to correct me.

Texas blocked Louisville. Even though everyone else was in favor, as conference dictators they exercised veto power.

UCF went to the Big East.
Utah went to the PAC.
MWC and CUSA merged.
