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.

You'd think that when they see what the Big10 is going to do to the Big East, they would cave in. Isn't the Big10 basically saying, "If you join, great! If you don't, we're going to take another team from your basketball conference." ?

losing NU's national profile will be much harder to replace than a team with no title success in anything..

give me pitino, a bball team with a national history and profile, and a football program with resources...


i have no problem with MU going to the big 10, they should jump at the chance, I'd say the same for KU...but the hilarious idea the MU is irreplaceable....wow

when/if the big 12 flys apart it will be because of economics forces that have squat to do with mu...
Yes, the economic forces that will eventually destroy the Big 12 - 3 will have absolutely nothing to do with losing 2 of its largest television markets.

Gotcha.

It certainly won't help the Big12's future TV contract negotiations.

no they don't


MU fans are like Mecca and USC now...he thinks he's smart because his team is good....MU fans think they're important because they're part of the same league as....Northwestern...


the economic forces driving this are way bigger than MU...MU is just fall out from an inevitable re-ordering which will take down most likely the big 12, and smaller conferences, and result in some form of super-confrences in 5-15 years as most think....

i'm not saying mu shouldn't be happy to be in the big-10...they should.


but let's quit with the "omg we are so awesome now" hilarity...

I guess we will just file this along with your previous straw man that nobody put forth that mu is irreplaceable.

Now?

We're just a little more awesome, since we're going to be a part of a superior conference.

Being a part of B10 won't magically make you a conference winner, much less any sort of NC.

Can you imagine what it would be like being one of 2-4 teams in the central time zone and 12-14 teams being pacific? That would be a disaster. There's a reason conferences don't cross into three time zones.

Here are the schools I have heard fans other Big 12 schools say would be better members of the Big 12 than Missouri: Utah, BYU, Louisville, New Mexico, and TCU. Please, add to the list!
