Whichever conference gave Tim Weiser the best excuse to expense hunting and fishing trips whenever KSU went to play there . . . provided that he wasn't already on a hunting or fishing trip and didn't bother to attend the KSU road game.

Think people would believe that we were a service academy if we changed our name? I don't think the Coast Guard has a service academy.

We could totally go Independent.  The big 12 needs us more than we need them.

Go see the Texas thread, then edit your post.

Our OOC schedule would be greatly improved if we went independent.  We'd be just like Notre Dame :blahblah:

A&M would probably be a better fit as a service academy

I've vote for C-USA or the WAC (freaking road trips to Hawaii).  But we'd probably end up in the Mountain West.

Back to the Big Eight. But in a different format....

The six schools in the Big 12 North
Wichita State, barring they promise to get a football program
Colorado State



Wow...never mind, that would suck.

Yeah, i wouldn't hold my breath on WSU getting a football team anytime soon.  Plus, they have too be a division 1-AA for a few years first, or something like that.  I remember Florida Atlantic starting up a team, and even though the actually had pretty decent and sudden success, it was still like a ten year ordeal.

No, MU would try to go Big 10 but likely not make it, NU would go Big 10 (12), CU would go Pac 10.  That would leave KSU, ku, MU and ISU scrambling....that would kind of suck.  Of course, if the Big 12 dissolved, OSU, Tech and Baylor would likely still be available.  So, that would give us 7, add in tcu and Colorado State for 9...I would guess there would be a couple of available schools from whereever Texas and A&M fled to so we could likely add another.  We would be the NoDem (non demographic) Conference.

All in all, a split of the Big 12 would be a bad deal for college sports

What is driving all this talk? I know Weiberg just resigned, but what source is driving all this split-up talk? I've seen a lot of it on several boards, but when I searched news stories for it on google there wasn't anything.

The Big 12 needs to exist. There needs to be a good conference where it is sitting.

because (some) of their fans think they can survive as a D-1a independent

I'm not sure it's possible for a Texan to realize how arrogant Texans are.

No joke, I know some Texans who believe that Texas to this day could secede and make it as an independent nation if they don't like the direction of the US government.

Texas is stupid because 'some' Texas fans or whoever think Texas could make it as an independent?  :loly: :loly:
now im pondering what the age is of the poster of that?

I think Texas COULD make it as an independent, but I dont think they likely WOULD. Its modern economics as it relates to each institution. Notre Dame has shown how hard it is even with their lucrative NBC and BCS contracts [which will soon expire]. Texas is obviously substantially higher profile than Notre Dame in the last number of seasons [excepted their end blowout loss in BCS Fiesta against, who tOSU?]

No way dude, the Vince Young era will soon wear off, and you'll be back to the "underachievers" you were labeled as from 98-03.

im sorry, but i don't likely see notre dame staying independent much longer thus proving a prestigious (sp?) program, same prestige as say texas,  can't do it in todays economics (though as long as ND keeps getting undeserving bcs bowl bids they will survive) and the other reason most texas fans are stupid is that they think the big 12 needs them more than they need the big 12

Hey Tex, howdy y'all.  Who finished in first place at the rodeo?  Can you recommend a good boot store?  Do you think the border patrol has enough manpower?  What happened to the Mavs?  Is Texas considering a move from the US to Mexico?  Would they ever?

chum - whats a rodeo? no im not a cowboy - no boots. Border is ok for now - Texas will soon annex Mexico and re-name it "dar-kansas" in your honor since mexico and kansas are both dark in their ideologies and there is already an ar-kansas. how many variations of kansas do we need anyway? To heli with Mark Cuban, im a Spurs fan. that cover it?

goodness willie - I wasnt intentionally attempting to flash elevated words or vocabulary at you, but if you feel ignorant, buy yourself a dictionary like me. I have two. I too run across words that I do not know. How about that? An arrogant Texan admitting there are things he does not know at times! But when I do run across said words, I study them so that I do not continue in my ignorance and then ignorance becomes stupidity from laziness when my neighbors from Manhattan, Kansas initiate elevated and insightful thoughts.

this is the reason that people make fun of texas.  they clearly dont relate with the rest of the country.  texas will never be "substantially higher profile" than notre dame.

Don't worry; any ignorance I feel isn't because of you or your "purty words"...   Hence the " " around vocabulary in the previous post.  You're not impressing anyone.

gee willickers willie - i wasn’t deliberately endeavoring to parade high-minded terminology or vocabulary at you, but if you experience uninformed incoherent thought, procure a dictionary reminiscent of me. I encompass two. I too encounter lexis’s that I cannot discern. How about that? An egotistical, overconfident Texan conceding that there are things that run vacant in the trappings of his mind at times! But when I do chance upon said words, I investigate and analyze them so that I do not maintain my static lack of knowledge and then ignorance becomes folly due to the idleness when my neighbors from Manhattan, Kansas inaugurate superior and discerning thoughts, regaling me with their chronicles of grandeur and enhanced comprehension of this simple, yet deceivingly complex, pastime we, Americans, entitle as football.
