Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment
A source in St. Louis familiar with the situation told NewsCenter 16 Thursday afternoon that Missouri will leave the Big XII and soon join the Big 10. Other schools expected to follow the Tigers are Syracuse, Pitt, Rutgers and Nebraska.
Many have speculated that such an expansion would include Notre Dame but ND athletic director Jack Swarbrick told me today that the Irish prefer to stay independent in football and in the Big East for other sports. Swarbrick said maintaining football Independence is such a part of what Notre Dame is. He went on to say the Big East is a great partner for the University in other sports. "We do have to monitor what is going on," Swarbrick said. "There will be significant shifts. "Hopefully we can navigate them by keeping our football independent and keeping our Big East affiliation because that is what we care about." The move of Syracuse, Pitt and Rutgers to the Big Ten from the Big East could categorically change the landscape of the Big East itself. Thus, what Swarbrick is referring to when stating the University must continue to monitor what is going on. The interview with Swarbrick was done before the late afternoon announcement. http://www.wndu.com/sports/headlines/92447574.html Last edited by Mr. Laz; 06-10-2010 at 02:57 PM.. |

It doesn't make any sense to add another Texas school because it doesn't add a media market. I could see something like Memphis and Louisville to replace Mizzou and Nebraska. I could even see UNLV to replace Colorado. Really, though, Colorado is out of place in the Big XII as it is. It would make more sense to move East if Colorado bolts. Cincinnati, Louisville, and Memphis would be a pretty good trifecta if CU, NU, and MU all leave. If they want to go to sixteen, the pickings get awfully slim if you don't want to really spread out and/or go to three time zones which doesn't make much sense.

You're way off. FCS is what used to be called Division 1-AA.

Nick Wright calling anyone out about misinformation is pretty funny...
I'm still waiting for that Anquan Boldin trade or for John Henderson to visit. He's isn't any more credible than Ketizman's dumb ass. |

Sounds like KK broke the ice, and now all the local media's gonna start pulling stuff out of their ass, and hope theirs sticks.
