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.. |

And now for the biggest pile of steaming rumor yet. A coworker that moved to Chicago a couple of weeks ago was wearing an MU sweater today while waiting for a taxi and evidently struck up a conversation with a guy who's nephew works for the B10 (Yes, BS flags should be going up right now). This guy told him not to worry, that the B10 never issues invitations but rather invitations to apply and that those went to MU awhile ago. That MU applied and got the approval at the same time as NEB. At that time the B12 offices were advised per B10 protocal, which is what got the B12 all irritated and issuing 'ultimatums'. Neb is going to announce today with MU to follow shortly thereafter so as not to steal NEBs thunder. NOTE: This is probably the same asshole posting on tigerboard that thought it would be fun to **** with the guy in the Tiger sweatshirt, but I figured I would let you know. I have every reason to trust the guy that told me he had this conversation, but neither one of us know a damn thing about the guy that told him. So ultimately it's still more credible than whatever bullshit Chip Brown is parroting for Deloss Dodds, but it's still probably garbage. I hate this so much.

Omaha's paper is beginning to report it now. I assumed the KC Star wouldn't stick their neck out if it wasn't for sure, but now we got two papers.

![]() I know a guy who ****ed the friend of a taxi driver's niece who once walked into a law office, and she said not to worry. |

Glad to see Nebraska go. No more hoards of inbred fans invading our stadium every other year.
