Why not? ANYTHING would be better than going to a completely worthless conference playing completely worthless teams(which describes every non major conference). You don't think KU could easily negotiate a national contract for BBall alone to televise every game with either ESPN or Fox Sports for serious money? Once they the contract in place scheduling is fairly straight forward. If they have the contract set up right then it's merely a case of saying 'For that game we'll split say 40% of revenue' with accelerators for name programs or top 25 teams. This isn't rocket science. KU has a national BB brand why wouldn't they leverage it rather than play for a complete shit conference?

It's easy. They will just have quality teams from power conferences take a break from their conference seasons fly to Lawrence in late February. It makes perfect sense.

So our 'soft landing spot' in the Big East is hemorrhaging schools, eh?
Mizzou is very very ****ed. Nicely done, fellas.

Relax. BD said that he had a lot of confidence in the future of the Big 12, so we should be good.

Pac-10 owns all of the western US TV Markets. LA, San Diego, SF, Seattle, Sacramento, Portland, Phoenix, Colorado, SLC Texas has no leverage to demand much of anything. Their departure from the Pac-16 won't destroy the conference like it would the Big-12. It's not like UCLA, USC, Stanford, Cal, ASU, UA, Washington, Oregon are going to join the Mountain West. |

"We have more teeth than those West Virginia fellers, take us, take us." I wouldn't wait around for a Big 10 invite, even if it's a better fit. It's pure speculation but I still wouldn't rule out some kind of Big 12/Big East merger, but will that conference get to be a BCS Superconference, or will it just be a basketball conference that happens to play some football. |
