This just popped up on Twitter and I hadn’t seen it. Nebraska’s mascot after they changed their name from the Bugeaters?

4,2,3,1,5...

LMAO

Has KU been invited to the B1G yet? ACC?
Mountain West? Missouri Valley?

Nothing will happen anytime soon I don't think but my gut tells me it will be the B1G.

lol at Mountain West or Missouri Valley, they'd stay in the Big 12 and expand before they did that

I'm seeing a lot of smoke on twitter that KU is moving back towards investing big money in the football stadium again and that it is because of the B1G

Stupidity reigns supreme in the now defunct Big 12.

American Conference? What’s that?

It’s one that Mizzouche could actually compete in.

That conference pride though!

Is it better to be the smallest house in a great neighborhood, or the biggest house in a run down neighborhood?

I mean, even if we haven't been nationally competitive recently there's still the possibility that we could build up to it in the future and being in the SEC makes that possible, long-term.

If we had stayed in the Big 12 we might have ended up in the B1G eventually, but we could also have ended up in a mid major conference like KSU or ISU probably will, and that would have been fatal to any aspirations of being a national champion one day, or even just a program with a national profile.

I don't think there is any argument that it was the right move, that has been pretty much settled with the Big 12 breaking up in mid-air

A decade later, perhaps the B1G would have been a better fit into terms of competitiveness (had they come calling), but the SEC realignment might help and of course it's better to pull the trigger when the SEC comes calling than wait it out.

How would going back to ISU, KU, etc; and playing OU once every other year help? At least now, without divisions, they would be facing Texas, OU and OSU every year. Sure, MU will take a step or two back if they go to the SEC, but the best option for any team wanting to be the best is to play against the best.

I honestly don't care much about football, but I get it. I'm really fine with going to the Big East at last resort (if no B1G or ACC) since they are a basketball major. Maybe we could then go football only in MTN West or something - but really - who cares about KU football.

I mean, I care about football. It would be really fun to have the program get revived with Leipold and then play meaningful games against teams like Michigan.

2008 was a blast. Those games against MU in Arrowhead were incredible.
