That's right!

Kansas State is ready at a moment's notice to accept that MAC invite! What, oh what, are those boys in the Rust Belt waiting for?

And Oklahoma State has the Sun Belt drooling! And if they go, T. Boone is gonna make damn sure Kansas State comes along....


Boys - GET THIS STRAIGHT:

Until Iowa, Kansas, or even Oklahoma grows a television market, which is not going to happen anytime soon (how many people do you know are moving to Kansas?) the old B12 North has no power. Mizzou, eh, maybe in the long run. But nobody else.

As it stands now and for the foreseeable future, UT, OU, and A&M are the only threats to leave. And OU forming their own network isn't going to change anything, except making their pockets bigger.

Kansas and Missouri are not in danger of ever being left to struggle in a non-BCS conference.

Kansas State, Iowa State, and Baylor are alike in that they are not particularly desirable, but may be able to use existing alliances and politics to further their cause. For these three there is hope, but not certainty.
