Other Sports Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment - Page 473

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.

i wanted KU looking for another conference before and i still want them looking for a new conference NOW. If another BCS conference is interested in KU then i want them to tell Texas to go **** themselves with a "longhorn" and leave the Big 12.

i would rather take less money in the Big East and be treating like equal than get another 5 million and be considered a texass bitch.

how's that answer, Metrodick?

either way don't expect me to drop to my knees and suck longhorn cock because it's not happening. You want to be happy about being a foot-shuffling porter ... go ahead.

It's easy for you to say you'd rather have "less money" and go to the Big East.

a) Your dumb ass has no idea whether any of those BEAST rumors were true

b) You're not the one who will be firing a bunch of people and telling them "sorry, we didn't want to be Texas' bitch so you need to go find another place of employment because we can't afford to pay you any more"

c) You dumb ass wouldn't be standing there telling the fans "Sorry, we had to let Bill Self go because the University simply couldn't justify his 3 million a year salary any more"

Just shut the **** up, seriously. This is the real world with real repercussions. This isn't a dick measuring contest on ChiefsPlanet.

**AustinChief** · 06-17-2010, 04:35 PM

Once again... why the hatred towards Texas? What exactly did they do wrong here?

So they are the bad guy and deserve hatred on what grounds?

Yea, it is really really easy to be a message board "know it all" when stuff like this happens.

Certain Mizzou fans are pissed because they flirted with the Big 10. What happened after that, who knows, but they are still pissed because they think they are bigger than they really are.

Certain Kansas fans just think they are bigger than they really are, even though there was no evidence of them ever being linked to a major conference.

I don't see any K-State fans pissed off at this deal.

Besides bullying the little guys so they can make more money?

go **** yourself, seriously

if people were unhappy with the way the league was controlled by Texas before ... just wait it's x10.

Big 12 tourney will be back on rounds with a HEAVY south appearance and if we ever have a championship game again you can expect it to be parked in jerryland.

and every other conference decision will be approved by texas

you enjoy being a lil bitch so i fully expected you to not have a problem with it.

Ah, good ole Zackipoo, humping my leg again.

Well, I'll tell you, I'm sure Alden has a comfortable existence. I'm sure he makes many times what I do, has a giant house, a hot wife, maybe even hotter mistresses, expensive cars, a big desk with a cushy leather chair and a private bathroom that's probably bigger than my windowless interior office. He probably has a secretary he doesn't have to share with a bunch of damn lawyers who take priority, and she's probably hot, too. I guess he's probably got a big raise and a fat bonus coming, as well.

But I have one thing he doesn't - the respect of my peers. Do you think there's one other AD in the country who doesn't think Alden wears clown shoes right now? If Osbourne croaks tomorrow, do you think Alden's name will appear on the short list of possible replacements? Do you think he'll ever land a job at Michigan or Ohio State or Alabama? He's done. Do you think he goes home and thinks about how great his life is, or stews over getting punked by Osbourne and humbled by Dodds, and having it all reported on ESPN?

Yeah, money's nice. But so is pride.

|Zach| · 06-17-2010, 06:14 PM

You seem to think Mizzou was actually in some power position.

"Pride" could have easily led us to a lesser conference which would have brought considerably less money into the college and the community.

I am sure people who would have lost their jobs would have felt a lot better that message board idiots could rattle on about how so and so isn't sucking so and so's cock anymore.

Mizzou wasn't in a position to better their situation. That is the beginning and the end of it. No matter what fantasy world you and Laz create where you can be butthurt over anything and everything the decisions made at KU and MU were better for the institutions and their communities which are paramount over everything.

Nowhere in there was an actual answer to the question of what you would have actually done.

Mostly because we don't have the information.

It doesn't stop you from talking out of your ass but KU wasn't in a power position. Calling people bitches and making homoerotic comments doesn't change the reality of the situation schools like KU and MU where in.

A lot of people are dependent on the University of Kansas sports machine apart from the actual school.

Every single one of those people were winners in this situation.

Would you rather KU go to the PAC-10 (12) or Big 10 (12)? MU and KU to the Big 10 in a couple years would pretty nice.
