if we joined the BE what would even be the point of the NCAA tournament?
Might as well crown the BE champion.
UT would rather have us then TT and the PAC really does not care what UT wants any way. They are not going to let UT tell them from the start what to do.
Cutting KSU loose will finally allow Kansas to be the ONLY featured university in a state that only needs one and has had to carry 2 for far, far too long. Hotshot recruits that want to play in our area (or stay home) will have one option. Kansas. It just makes sense.
Me and 90% of Jayhawk nation want to absolutely see KU split away from ksu. We've shared recruits, state funding, and fan support with you long enough. Its time to be the only featured school in a small state that only needs one AQ school. ksu brings nothing, I repeat NOTHING that you don't already recieve with KU. KU brings the KC market and the rest of Kansas by itself.. KSU is not needed for anything but the Sun Belt Conference.
Once the realignment happens, it'll only take so long before fence-sitters get tired of MWC football and turn their attention to KU. As anxious as some of our fans seem to be, I don't think I could take this whole thing if I were a Wildcat fan.
KSU fits much better in the Mountain West. That is where they should go.
It's certainly not as K-State dominated as it was in the mid-90s. Maybe I saw more KU stuff because I was at the wedding of my old roommate at KU, but I do know plenty of his high school classmates were also in Lawrence at the same time we were.
i lived in colby ks in nw kansas for almost three years. it was exceedingly more pro ku.
Would love to know who is source is for the little morsel that KSU may end up in the ACC. Maybe it is just that his sentence structure is so poor that I misread that bit of information.
The only part of the state that is even remotely close to being pro KSU as opposed to KU is western KS.
The reality for KSU is that it doesn't matter who likes who in Western KS. In the population centers, which is what is important for the TV deals, KU owns the state. Now, I think KSU lands in the Big East almost no matter what; however KU IMO has the Big East as somewhat of a fall back after the Pac (more likely than a lot think) and Big 10 (less likely). Maybe even the ACC, although I find that pretty unlikely too.
Kansas has also received feelers from the Pac-12 and Big East, sources said. Kansas State has also received feelers from the Big East, sources said.
