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.. |

I read they were relevant in a tennis-team sort of way. All hail the kings of the hardwood. Now can you grab all your stuff? We're moving you from the locker room to the boiler room, need to make space for the assistant football trainer's dogs.

I enjoyed rooting for Southwest Missouri State when I was there for two years between 94-96, but haven't followed since. Closest thing I have to a "team" is Alabama football, and that's not anything resembling fandom, I just get a lot of SEC games here and it seems Bama was always on - plus I met Gene Stallings once in high school, the year after he was named coach at Bama. So I watched when they were on, but could ultimately care less about the results. I've been to two NCAA football games - both at Notre Dame - my wife worked for the parent of a player during the last two Quinn/Samardzija years - so we were given freebies. And I attended a NCAA Basketball Regional in STL, I forget the year. Met Ashley Judd. There's a post about it somewhere around here. I'm not for or against anyone here. Just stating my opinions, with some scattered facts. |

How exactly do I deserve it? I stated a fact that MU has had less success than KU in terms of athletics, yet you guys are gloating about our upcoming relegation. What was wrong with my statement?

MU fans are just finally getting a chance to release the condescending one who sucks the penis within each of them. Let 'em enjoy their moment in the sun.

Yeah, exactly. You could see this on a slightly smaller scale in 2008 and 2009 when their football was skyrocketing. One can only imagine how they would act if our basketball teams were reversed.

Picture a KU fan, but now imagine him belonging to a relevant conference and wearing black and gold.
