I'd rather the Big XII remain viable and for K-State to stay in it.

If the big 10 or PAC came calling TODAY I believe they would turn it down...but there are those no doubt who might see it differently. Kansas ties to the old big six,eight and twelve run deep. If they had called last year or two months ago they would not have turned them down...they would have jumped at the opportunity...but the point is... times have changed fast in the conference realignment saga...most KSU and KU fans would view the SEC as a very last resort in my opinion. It's not that the SEC is a bad conference..it's a great conference...it's just historically and culturally a bad fit for Kansans...not as much so for missourians. JMO of course. |

![]() Did he really say that? Awesome. Admittedly, we're just now experiencing, somewhat, consistent success in football (which I think we'll continue to experience as long as we have Petrino, love him or hate him). But we did, you know, win a national title in basketball while a member of the SEC. And won the SEC Championship another year. Of course, we've been down in basketball for a good long while now (which allowed our football to ascend), but I think b-ball is on the rebound here.

Kansas and KSU would be gone so fast it would make your head spin if the B1G, PAC, SEC, or ACC offered.

In other words, its more bullshit journalism courtesy of Kevin Kietzman. Nothing new here.

Coaches are a critical factor in the SEC. You need a strong guy who recruits well and runs a consistent program. I think Pinkel resembles those remarks. The key for Missouri over the next ten years is going to be hiring a equal or better football coach when Pinkel retires. Being in the SEC helps with prestige and it helps with having the money to spend on a high-profile guy. The Tigers will have plenty to sell a big-time coach when the time comes (fourth-biggest state in the SEC, good local recruiting base, tradition of success recruiting Texas, $$$), and I'm confident the AD will continue to make the necessary commitment to its football coach. In the Big 12, you're probably looking at bringing in someone like Dave Christensen. A head coach at a non-BCS league school. In the SEC, you can still do that (for, say, Chris Peterson-level non-BCS coaches), or you can poach from other schools in BCS leagues. And if there's a hot assistant (ala Dan Mullen), you're a leading candidate there, too.

It's called getting the last laugh.
Your coach? Fired in disgrace. Your AD? Resigned in disgrace. Your team? Is a disgrace. Your conference? Crumbling. Congratulations on that Orange Bowl, though. I'm sure your MWC will be impressed.

Coach fired in disgrace. AD resigned in disgrace. Our trophy display is not a barren wasteland. Team is a disgrace. A coaching hire away from being fixed. Crumbling Conference? Not as long as UT and OU are here. ![]() Thanks for the congratulations. No amount of your butthurt will ever take that trophy away from KU. MWC? Maybe and maybe not. I guess we'll see, but I'm not too worried about it right now.
