True story, I have posted and read this thread several times and had no idea what Zenger was until I read the paper this morning.    :comeatme:

After watching this, I'm glad we got these old timers out of our strong grouping of member institutions. Btw is it a requirement that all rivals websites hire a young co-ed to complete bs interviews and be subject to creepy advances by the website owner (Fitz)?

Can not confirm, but am hearing rumblings about an Emergency KBOR meeting.   Pretty much the entire agenda will be how to finally rectify the "ku problem" so K-State will be free to move in the athletic direction it needs to move. 

Even hearing the Kansas Attorney General may be in attendance.  Anyone else hearing this . . .

Could it be the umbelicle cord from Mothership K-State is finally being cut?

Developing . . .

P.S.  K-State's statements about "commitment" to the Big 12? Sources say that K-State has a $hitpile of smoke bombs behind the curtain and they're just lighting them up one after the other, don't believe anything in any public statement from K-State about "commitment" to any conference.

about the only thing i can say is that ksu and a&m have more in common than most people would think. nbaf, DoD, ft riley, shared programs and defense dollars.

if the sec adds a&m and my sources say that it's less likely today than thursday, they need to add another team and it won't be from typical sec territory. look for mizzou or kstate with a&m's obvious choice being ksu. i don't know how much pull a&m will have though and whether or not ksu getting in will sway their final decision to accept. i've heard it might. this is from high ranking people in DoD and not ksu or a&m fwiw.

At 5:36 pm ADJC was heading west on Kimball LOLing in his black Jeep/GMC.  I was like (to my wife), "hey, that's ADJC...WTF, why is he laughing?"

Then I get home and see they had a conference call at 4pm...hmmm, I wonder if he was laughing about TAMU getting shafted?

Does anyone think we should maybe consider legal action against ku, or the state, or the KBOR?  When is enough . . . enough?  When can we rid ourselves of this . . . well, parasite??

I can't wait for the longhorns to start pulling their strings to get us into the SEC. It all makes sense, Manhattan was always more of an SEC town, we will have a top 5 SEC stadium, they don't have to lose to us every year, and we will stop stealing all of the recruits they wish they could keep. OU might even throw into the pitch for us to go just so Bob doesn't have to recruit against Ol' Snyds. Can't wait for the SEC coaches to see how we do it up here in Manhattan, coming Fall 1013.  :kstatriot:

Okay, got off phone with an A-/B+ source who told me Tennessee has taken a firm anti-KSU stance.  They know CUrrie is an animal on the fund raising trail and are still sore about the Cotton Bowl butt-kicking. 

Source also said they did waiver because they would like to add our tethered school for the guaranteed football and basketball victories the move would provide.  The threat of KSU is too much to overcome that.

I can't wait until next year's CFB Championship Game when I can cheer on my fellow SEC bretheren.  :emawkid:

So how is this turning out ?? I decided during this round of expansion I was just going to ignore it until crap was pretty much finalized.. The last round took a lot out of me, a million different 'reliable' sources saying a million different things and all being wrong, the truth is like 4 or 5 people ACTUALLY know anything concrete about whats going on and they aren't talking to message boarders..

This time I'm just going to not start paying attention until the thing is done, is it almost done ??
