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.

Keep on fightin' the good fight though.
Actually, it was some other Mizzou fan I was having this discussion with. I have actually been quite impressed with how the actual officials at Missouri have handled themselves this time around.

You don't have to get the Big East to think those schools are dead weight. You just need to come to an agreement with the schools to make a NEW conference. If you can propose more money than they make now and stability, I don't think it matters much.
Football is absolutely what's driving it. That's the idea. Kicking out schools who don't even play football aren't going to make a difference either way, so why do it? The only reason to do it would be because you think the basketball version of the conference is getting too big. Unless those schools get football money, which I highly doubt they do, it's irrelevant.

Only way that happens is if the Big 12 schools invite the rest of the Big East into the Big 12. The non-football schools aren't leaving the Big East.

That is exactly what I am saying. Baylor, ISU, Kansas, KSU, Missouri and then the 8 football schools, throw in Villanova and have them come up to D1. I'm pretty sure that would force the hand of some of the basketball schools to agree to come over as just basketball, and if they don't, who really gives a shit.

Wouldn't the simpler solution be to sign independent conference contracts for football and basketball?

Really, not a bad option. 5 member institutions = exit fees from the other 5. Or, roughly 30M/school.

Beebe can pay me a 15% consulting fee, and we'll call it even.

And I'm not sure how KU would survive in the Big East. What with all the fouling and stuff.

I never accused you of being an *snicker* insider. That much is obvious.

I accuse you of being a pompous douche. In much the same way I accuse the sun of rising in the east and DaKCMan AP being Awesome.

It was me...and if you read me correctly I told you that I'm less worried about who would want us as much as I am worried about how our Administration will screw this up.

It only turned into a different discussion when you tried to make it sound like we were in the same boat as KU.

Villanova has already said they won't jump up to D-1 in football.

I'm fine with expanding the Big 12, as long as we don't extend invites to Bucknell, Bradley or Northern Iowa. :-)
