Serious q for those of you in the know. I'm assuming that in some ways, being a blue blood is a good thing during realignment talk. But- I was just wondering if it could also be hurting us right now. Football heavyweights = automatic losses, does a conference really want to poison itself by letting too many blue bloods in? Thus conferences don't want K-State to join- we will make their conference stronger since we're blue blood but we'll also be shelling out automatic loses to its current conference members like it's going out of style.
Look at the SEC, it is loaded with heavyweights, we're not going to get in there- do they really want more loses? no. As is the B10. No one in the Big East or ACC care about football and both conferences suck at football, maybe that's why there is so much discussion about us going to one of those two conferences.
It would be nice to be the Texas of the ACC or Big East and have all the other schools letting us rape them for $$ and other great perks like UT has (LHN, etc).
Imagine the television contract we would sign if we hooked up with some other blue bloods, hmmm ya, I think the US Mint just called my cell phone- they're running out of money over there just thinking about it. LOL, time will tell. .
Hey, Fort Knox, get off our nuts.
