Other Sports Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment - Page 254

Mr. Laz · 02:57 PM

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.

Well, this could certainly alter things as we "know" it.......

Study: Separating BU From Texas, A&M, Tech Will Cost Waco Millions
A study released Thursday concludes that separating Baylor from the other three Texas universities that are now part of the Big 12 Conference will cost Waco nearly $200 million in annual spending and nearly 1,700 jobs.

WACO (June 10, 2010)—A report released Thursday by economist Ray Perryman concludes that if the Big 12 Conference breaks up and Baylor is separated from Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech, Waco will lose an estimated $196.7 million in annual total spending, $106.4 million in annual output and 1,677 jobs.

The report estimates the cost of the break-up to Texas at $714 million in annual spending, nearly $371.8 million in annual output and 5,764 jobs.

Perryman predicts losses from home-game spending, major conference games, media contracts and visitor spending would result from the separation of Baylor from the other three universities.

“The presence of four schools in a premier conference is important to Texas’ ability to capitalize on the potential economic stimulus of college athletics,” Perryman concludes.

Well, the TX government could definitely act on that I would think.

NU appears to be. Everyone's talking to everybody else. Was that just for NU and MU, or did everyone have to commit by then? Is that deadline still there?

Buehller?

It was reported that MU's deadline was extended to the 17th. But, like everything else, I have NO idea if that's true.

Did you mean "3rd from the right," or are you into pale skinny chicks with no tits?

I don't think MU is on par with B10 academics, and that's not me talking smack on MU, just being realistic. I'm not saying MU won't be going to the B10, I'm just saying that's the reason for the hang-up.

Yep
