Have you heard of one school wanting to leave the SEC. They get big bucks, share equally among all schools (yes even Vanderbilt), and put out an almost annual National Champion. The Big 12 cannot compare at this time, and neither can any other conference with the exception of the Big 10 perhaps. I still believe that Louisville and WVA would have more stability right now in the BE than they would in the Big 12.

Don't know how reliable this is, but here is a new report that says Mizzou has now officially withdrawn from Big 12: http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/236739/ ... gnment.htm

Well, now this report from ESPN says the opposite: http://espn.go.com/college-football/sto ... ting-ubben

But Big 12 interim commissioner Chuck Neinas told the Kansas City Star that Missouri did not submit a letter of conditional withdrawal or notify the Big 12 that it planned to leave.

"The conference encouraged Missouri to stay in the Big 12," Neinas said, according to the report.

And in a news release, the Big 12 said "a strong desire for the University of Missouri to maintain its Big 12 affiliation was expressed" at the meeting.


Time to $h!t or get off the pot.

that's great raplh wrote:We'll see. Big 12 is dysfunctional. There is a reason why Nebraska, Colorado, ATM and mizzou have left. I hope anyone considering that conference understands what a deal with the devil entails.


The Schools and college football have become dysfunctional.
