EDIT: Took me a minute to realize what school you were referencing. That's one of the reasons I will always think the name change was not as advantageous for national sports profile as folks in Springfield though. Say MSU, and most peoople think Michigan State, Miss. State, Memphis State....
You're a Missouri State guy?
I didn't know the details of what went down with SLU. Guess it thought it was too big-time for you guys.
I imagine the Bears would get the same response any other team in Missouri would get about scheduling a series with Mizzou: Welcome to play in Columbia and would love to play them in Columbia. But not committing to a straight home-and-home.
