The KU is chained to KSU was the phogtard talking point brought up in this thread by KU fans to pacify their growing concern of being left out of the realignment. It was also part of the KSU/KU are linked by law that several people posted in this thread. I merely bust the myths, I don't make the myths.
But you keep on carrying the cross.

actually, i posted a press release just a day or so ago from the KBOR that stating that they wanted to keep KSU/KU together. So it's not a myth ... and while i don't know that there is a law about it ... the regents control much if not all of the state funding so it might as well be law unless the schools are prepare to decline state funds.
“We are unwavering in our belief that the best course for K-State and KU is continued joint affiliation in the Big 12. The intra-conference rivalry between the Jayhawks and Wildcats is exciting for athletics fans both within the Sunflower state and nationwide. In addition, joint affiliation in the Big 12 fosters invaluable cooperation between our two universities when it comes to serving the academic needs of Kansans and the economic development needs of the state.
