Other Sports Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment - Page 258

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.

Hey buddy, I thought it was a DONE DEAL. Your sources what about your ****ing sources? Surely, he will find a way to blame Mizzou for this.

The guy is a gigantic douche, but you have a strange definition of backpedaling, especially since he's been reporting about differences between Texas and the Aggies.

I'm told #Mizzou is not a high priority in Big Ten's immediate plans but not totally out of the picture. Process could last months half a minute ago via UberTwitter

NickAthan: I'm told #Mizzou will be joining the Big Ten and the Chiefs are talking to the Jets about Darrelle Revis for a player to be named later.
