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.

NY Times sports reporter Pete Thamel Tweets:

"Big 12 AD confirms to the NY Times that Texas is on cusp of committing to Big 12. He said, 'The musical chairs will stop.'"

I'd like to think that all three local schools end up in a major conference, but without the Big 12, I'd say it's a crapshoot.

OU gets an invite because of the Texas rivalry and their own history. OSU and TT are Tier 3 academic institutions, they're not getting in on their own merits. Stanford, Cal, USC, etc. only let those 2 in if UT and OU's ability to come to the PX is tied to those schools following.

Besides Texas, the southern schools were only on 1 of the approved expansion scenarios.

TV markets and academics would carry Mizzou. Plus, they have a solid fan following, as evidenced by football attendance numbers.

KU? Why, basketball, of course.

KSU would go to the MWC. Decent football conference and wouldn't be the end of the world for KSU, IMO. I know, I know, Wildcats. That's easy for me to say b/c I don't have a vested interest.

"In a concession to Texas, schools get an unequal distribution of television revenue and have the opportunity to develop its own network."

WTF? Would the other schools go for this? Talk about being someone's bitch-boy.
Would the other schools be allowed to make their own schedules or would they need to run them by UT for sign-off?

Yeah, I think they're definitely in a more precarious position. But the Big East would be the absolute fall-back, IMO.

An announcement that a remodeled Big 12 will survive with a new television deal could be announced as early as Monday, sources say.

All 10 schools remaining in the Big 12 are are at the table working on a deal that would save the league, sources tell Orangebloods.com.

Not to mention, MU "academics" have NOTHING to do with this equation, which was the other part of my - fyp

KU football in the Pac 10..... ummmm, errr

Is that a serious question? They would do it because the alternative (MWC?) offers even less revenue than the unequal distribution of this new format. Sure, pride takes a hit here, but reality is reality.

Heck, if you discount U$C and their cheating ways, the MWC has been on par with the Pac 10 the last few years. The last couple of years the MWC has been better in basketball too.
