The KU Rayhawks are NOT going through a rough patch. They make Raytown, Missouri proud!

I don’t know the names specifically, other than they are causing quite a tizzy on some of the BigXII sports talk shows I listen to.  These things seem to manifest into reality.

Groan. I hope it's not true. I do not like the SEC. If this happens, both of my alma maters (almae matres?) will be in the traitor conference.

If so, gotta assume we get Big10’d.

If serious then Mizzou won the border war. Just saying

[catastrophe]

Unless Missouri and Kentucky are just begging for reasons to be relevant again, I don’t understand why the SEC would send an invite.

And unless KU is desperate for short term cash over a conference affiliation that makes any sense, I don’t see why they’d accept.

[deputy dawg]

Would SEC fans understand or chant "Blue Wings Rising"?  "Beak 'em Hawks"?  Or would KU go the MOO route of chanting "SEC! SEC!"?

This has been going strong on the phog for a few days. It started because a "plugged in" b10 youtuber with a few hundred subscribers said the b10 has absolutely no interest in ku but maybe the sec does if it invites 3 others and they want a 4th

There is also a guy that keeps saying ku basketball is a bigger brand than mlb teams

The scenario is SEC grabs UC, UNC, UVA, and KU.  This is very hard to believe since Duke is UNC's revelry and doesn't come with the 85 million exit fee and Big XII GOR.

KU/Lawrence would have to do a Stalinist revision of its Bloody Kansas heritage to fit in the SEC. Can see them embracing their Lawrencetucky brand, tho.

In the middle of reading a book about the Border War (1850-1865).  Based on the ideology there, KU would have to sell its soul to join the SEC.

Yes, and that's exactly how it would feel to me, and I'd never donate a dollar to the institution.

All of this is hence my opinion mizzou wins the border war if ku were to ever do that. It's almost unfathomable but stranger things have happened.

Desperation is a stinky cologne.

[deputy dawg]

The invitation may be a ploy to sow discord within the Big XII, I'm pretty sure both the SEC and Big are wary of our conference staying power and unity.  KU has been the one program not singing from the same hymn book as the rest of the conference, it would not be surprising for Greg Stanky to recognize KU as the weak link in conference unity (since they are KU, and the rest of the conference is not at KU's level).

I don't think the SEC wants to be perceived as taking the Big 10's rejects

Why not? They took Missouri ...

And have regretted it every day since

Guys... LFBIQ here but isn't Arrowhead a little small for an SEC stadium?  That's got to be an immense amount of pressure on our friends.  :-(

Vanderbilt has only 40,300 seat capacity.

And KU has already completed step one in the Missouri playbook. Whore yourself out to the Big Ten and get rejected.
