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.. |

Wow, some of you go all out and jump on the short bus just to feel better about yourselves or the team you root for. FFS, of course it would hurt KU to move to the MWC, and the school and fans should be a little scared...... but not to be outdone, in the other corner are Mizzou fans mocking, get this, winning & success... and trying to be superior because their school is closer to St. Louis. Seriously? Get a ****ing grip, people.
From what I've heard, it hinges on what Nebraska does... if they decide to leave, Texas and the little ones are more likely to leave. If Nebraska stays, regardless of what Mizzou does, Texas is more likely to stay and the Big 12 could be the Big 11. I really don't know, as it's all just speculation, of course.... in the long run, it might not matter anyway. |

Basketball is just a nice little gem that some of us keep in our back pocket. I actually find the KU fan and KU football fan to be completely different, which I'd expect is true of the MU football vs MU basketball fan. |

Let's see the current revenue$ numbers of football and basketball side by side, conference by conference. If data age makes no difference I can prove to you why the Model T is the most profitable car to produce. |
