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.. |

Remember when I said that Brady Deaton was a goddamn moron?
Brady Deaton remains a goddamn moron: http://www.stltoday.com/sports/colle...2119ab083.html Jesus, Deaton - really? You think the conference can move forward if OU and OSU leave? And people continue to wonder why I have no faith in MU leadership...

Exactly. All the ADs and chancellors are saying the right things. But you know they are working behind the scenes. What they say publicly probably doesn't mean shit right now.

They will either carve up the Pac 12 again or divide the ACC with the SEC.
