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.. |

Larry Scott threw in the towel!! Game over Pac 10...........thanks for taking Colorado.
Thank you thank you Nebraska!!! You all got the **** out and now the Big 12 is the #1 RPI Conference and more money for everyone!! Man what a great day this has been compared to where we were last week!! SO NU enjoy your long ass plane rides (no more driving to watch a game) and for a final time.......go **** yourselves!! Never have to speak or hear from you again. Well in football one more time and two gimmie basketball wins for our local schools.

hoax. Utah likely goes to the PAC-10. Honestly, with this big windfall promise from the still-unnamed TV network, it doesn't make sense to expand unless the new schools can bring in at least $15-20MM in value per year.

Don't forget, half the time in football. Basketball? Doubtful.

Well that was a wild ride ending up in a whole lot of more of the same. This is a massive letdown and an embarrassment nationally but I'll get over it a lot faster in the Big 12 than in the MWC. Bottom line if Texas didn't move MU couldn't, now I just hope they try to get 2 more teams and keep the championship game.
My Winners and Losers Winners- Nebraska, Colorado, K-State, Iowa St, Baylor, Big East Losers- Missouri, Texas A&M, Big-10, Pac-10, Big 12 Potential losers(if Big 12 expands)-Boise St and the Mountain West Conference |

Invite TCU and see if you can get Arkansas to switch, given that they'll get far more TV revenue from a new contract.
