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.. |

Your point is spot-on. IMHO this is all the more reason for the B10 to be academically stringent when considering allowing other schools to join.

When I am reading Big 10 football board, Iowa Hawkeye boards mainly, there is some B1G expansion talk going on. Most people actually do want Mizzou and KU to join the conference. They seem to think though that KC is entirely Nebraska fans,, like 70%+. WTF? I don't really see that many more Nebraska fans than even Iowa fans, and Nebraska has a much stronger following nationally I'm sure. If anything the KC area is:
35% KU 30% Mizzou 22% K-State 6% Nebraska 3% Iowa The rest random BS |

North and east KC is solidly Mizzou. Once you get to Lee's Summit, Liberty, Blue Springs, etc., its overwhelmingly Tiger country.
