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.. |

"Been observing Big XII dynamics for a long time."
Translation: Conference is a sack of shit. We're getting off the sinking ship. |

I've never wanted to punch Tom Osborne in the face until today.........however that would come after kicking the chancellor in the nuts for that whiny bitch rant he just gave. Why not just say the Big 10 has got their shit together and offers members a better deal than the Big 12 instead of this long drawn out rant about how everyone except NU started this process? The whole "we were pushed into this" bullshit makes me sick. Not to mention the douchenozzle saying he doesn't feel there should be any penalty that NU should suffer. What? WTF not? Just cuz? |

He basically said it was sketchy that "schools" were calling Neb urging them to stay while at the same time contacting other conferences about joining.
What the **** are the other schools supposed to do Tom? sit around and let you leave while doing nothing. Tom Osbourne = scumbag |

Missouri is like a miner that discovered gold, went to the town saloon and told everyone about it, and then had someone he told go dig it up while he was in the bar drinking.

God, I hope there are meds for your stupidity. Seriously, if there was a flat line signal for reerunation, you just hit it.
