Official Missouri Regrets leaving Big 12 but Tries Really Hard to Justify Thread

(1/115) > >>

This topic needs its own thread.  This summer will be flooded with posts like this:


--- Quote ---Dear Kansas City sports media....Please F-ing STOP...
Fescue this morning was the latest one..."With what we know now, did Missouri make the right decision to go to the SEC..."

What is going on now, wouldn't be going on now, if Missouri and A&M didn't leave for the SEC in the first place. The only reason the Big 12 has any credibility at all right now is because the SEC, and Slive in particular, is giving it to them. The Big 12 can go ahead and get FSU and ND and become the second best football conference in America behind the SEC. WE DON'T CARE!!! The Big 12 can implode and be split up into the Pac, the ACC, and the Moutain West. WE DON'T CARE!!! Missouri's move to the SEC was the right thing to do at the time, it is right move now, and it will be the right move 20 years from now. MISSOURI IS IN THE SEC! WE ARE GLAD WE ARE IN THE SEC! WE AREN'T LEAVING THE SEC! GET OVER IT ALREADY!!

mods, please move to the cigar thread, thanks.

ND's best move would be to join SEC   :dubious:

Yeah, yeah, I know it will never happen.

ND could be a full member right away, and just walk away with no exit fees if it doesn't work out. Their other options will lock them into long term agreements.

Big 10

PRO:
Natural fit
Many rivalries maintained
Best culture fit
Stability
BTN
Academics

CON:
Goes against ND trying to be a National Brand.
Could become Purdue with a better fight song.
Church issues with stem-cell research in Big 10
Recruiting could get harder as a regional player in a poor recruiting region
Weakest football of the Big Four
No Tier 3 rights

Big 12

PRO:
If FSU and Clemson join, more national
Tier 3 rights

CON:
The Cancer of Bevo
GoR will lock them in for years   :ohno:
Ames, Stillwater, Lubbock
Stability is still in question   :confused:
Academics - lost NU, CU, MU and A&M. WV, TCU, FSU add nothing.   :shakesfist:

SEC

PRO:
Full member right away
Can always just walk away w/o exit fees if it does work out
Best football conference
Best money and most stable
Tier 3 rights
SEC Network
Gives SEC an even bigger TV market

CON:
Not a culture fit
Academics (but not as bad a Big 12)   :facepalm:

No, denied.  No need to flood it with this crap.

The right choice. They are just trying to make themselves feel superior once gain. If they didn't care they wouldn't talk about it. I don't care if the original teams where still in the B12, or, if they added ND,FSU, USC and MI. I'd still rather be in the SEC. The SEC threw them a bone after the ACC sided with the B10 and P12. Now they talk like they own the country. Very amusing.
