Hell even if it were D3 it probably wouldn't matter much since they would likely make even more money as a BBall independent than as part of a conference since they would not have to share. It would likely be a wash. So it's not a 'KU is ****ed' it's more a who cares where they end up, it almost doesn't matter. The BBall program will have the national TV that it always gets. Only if they were ever to care about the FB program would it matter what conference they are in. But it's not clear how much they care.

Actually, its not quite that simple. Once conference season rolls around, finding teams to play would be extremely tough. KU needs to be a part of a large conference or soon the big time coaches and players will stop coming here.
