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.

One of these two. Now, the MWC might be a real possibility for KSU, but I don't think that would be the end of the world for them.
I don't see any reason why the Pac-10 is interested in Colorado over KU. Really makes no sense to me. What is another one state over matter? It's actually beneficial. Getting schools in the Central Time Zone will help their TV exposure immensely. BWillie007's sources have shown that the Pac-10 will offer to Utah if Texas A&M doesn't want to come. Texas A&M is just trying to act like they don't need Texas. But they'll realize they do soon. And it'll be all over.

Colorado, A&M, Texas, Tech, OSU, and Oklahoma all to the fucking Pac-10. FML

Honestly, I wonder if UNC and Duke would NOT want KU in the mix, simply because it would take some focus away from their state.
I think it only makes sense with all the focus on football to at least have one conference that is all about basketball but still tied into the BCS system.

The PAC 10 wants to recruit in Colorado for football, and not so much in Kansas.

I know. We've went over this many times back and forth on here but the Denver market is only a smidge bigger than the KC market. It's only 400,000 people more. And nobody cares about college sports there.

Why on earth would a football conference want a basketball school?

Yeah, and the Pac 10 probably doesn't care about UCLA's hoops at all.

Colorado is a better academic institution than KU (and MU), so if things are about equal this would definitely push things over the top.

You mean today or 40 years ago? Like I said, hoops success is a bonus if it happens in the P10 but the realignment is 100% football drive.
I live in P10 country, every day sports talk here is about their sorry-assed conference expanding to create their own network and get in on the football $$.

CU? They are much more football than KU. Also consider CU is heads and shoulders above KU academically.

That is a good point. In this day and age, it doesn't seem like most conferences even care anymore. Look at the SEC. You can be a reerun and get into those schools.

Welcome to the MWC. Get used to it.

Not sure why you all are mad. If the MWC gets KU, KSU, and MU it instantly becomes a power conference. It's already the best mid major football and basketball conference.
