I think the KU fans in this thread are no longer afraid of Mizzou leaving because it will break up the BIG XII....but instead deep down they know there might a possibility that Mizzou football might just move to the next level. I think the thought of a competitive Mizzou fighting for an SEC divisional title year in year out with national exposure drives them crazy.
If Mizzou can't hack it in the SEC, then bottom line, they weren't going to hack it in the BIG XII either. At least Mizzou will have taken a chance at being something special, and competing in the elite football conference in college football.
The KU fans are like the fans on here that are afraid for the Chiefs to draft a qb because it might be a bust. The Mizzou fans are the ones that are saying draft the guy, and take a shot, knowing that it might fail. I think Mizzou fans are comfortable with taking that chance.
