You have the same type of national brand in BB that Nebraska has in football, only yours isn't propped up on shit that happened 20 years ago.

Okay, did I read this correctly? :hmmm:

I still think burning Lawrence to the ground should be an annual event.

I hope you all feel better now. LMAO

I'd like to see the "cats, jayhawks,and tigers all end up in the same conference. I'd like to see the clones as well, but tcu may have stolen their spot. There's a lot to be said for keeping old regional rivalries intact, especially if you're going to be playing a lot of games on the east coast.

If the Okies split west, I hope we don't dawdle around and take up the Big East should they offer us a spot. I think it would stabilize their conference as well, and get us all away from the money grubbing, duplicitous texas schools.

Texas is going to have a tough time getting a conference to accept them if they don't drop their personal network. Conferences want to have shared revenue. From what I hear the network isn't even taking off as it is only shown in one small market. It was a short sighted deal on all sides.

It was a poor job by the Big XII commissioner having a conference network fall through because they couldn't keep Texas on board. Nobody is going to sign a contract to show everyone's games but Texas. It can't be a one team conference with only money going into one schools coffers even if they are the big kid on the block.

I'm not sure I can like a picture more than I like this one:

It really does capture the smugness while also demonstrating the complete lack of awareness that is Dan Beebe.

Not quite as good as the fake Matt Cassel feed, but not bad...

There's something appealing about keeping our regional rivals while also being the big dick in charge of a BCS conference.

Our Texas recruiting would suffer, but it wouldn't be insurmountable. And it might be better than getting butt-****ed by the SEC for a decade (though the divisions could split in a manner that favors MU in the SEC).

Whatever - just give me a healthy conference and let my football program continue to develop. This program has become a legitimately strong program and I desperately want that to continue.

The conference would lose quite a bit in the football department if WVU leaves, IMO.

Through all of this, I find myself being more aligned with MU and KSU than ever before. Almost like kindred spirits or something... and I find myself REALLY ****ING HATING TEXAS.

I, for one, would love to see our natural rivalries play out in the new/next conference.
