Its the right move for SEC and Mizzu...good for us as the more the SEC and big 10 get involved more spots open...

Just got beat to the punch, here's another report on it: http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/2 ... ent-big-12

I do think Mizzou would be a much better fit in the Big 10. Better cultural fit as well as more likely to be competitive there. They might be able to use the SEC's offer for leverage? Or is SEC money just ultimately enticing?

Yeah this is the right move for both the SEC and Mizzou. Is Mizzou simply waiting on UT/OU to leave officially?

Was kind of hoping that mizzou would end up in the big 10. That would leave the big 10 and sec with 13. It would be likely in that scenario that each would add another school which would be even better for us potentially.

the gagging sound you may be hearing from Dallas is Dan Beebe trying to choke down lunch and checking the help wanted ads.

So if the b12 is left with baylor, ISU, KS and KSU is there a reasonable chance they may try to continue the conference by back filling instead of a merger with the BE? Thoughts??

GO PONIES!!!

So, TAMU & Missouri to SEC; KSU and KU to Big 10; OU, OSU, UT, and TTU to PAC 12; that just leaves ISU, and Baylor right? Back filling really can't be an option anymore for the Big 12. Are ISU and Baylor attractive enough to the Big East, or do they look at someone like ECU and UCF to replace Pitt and Syracuse?
