There are two reasons why I want KU in the Pac 12. The first is that if KU goes to the Big East we'd be jumping out of an unstable conference into another unstable conference. A couple of schools are already looking to bail on the Big East right now for the ACC. If KU went to the Pac it would end up in a stable conference that isn't fighting another conference to stay alive like the Big East and ACC will be doing very soon. Jumping to the Big East is just a stop gap until those two leagues fight it out and decide which teams will make it into that new merged 16 team league.

The other reason is selfish. I live on the west coast and would love to see the Jayhawks come out here to Seattle every couple years so I can watch them play the Huskies, Ducks, or Cougars.

I don't really think KU is going to get a Pac 10 invite, but if they do they have to take it the second that its offered and not look back IMO.
