Don't shoot the messenger, but I've got word that we're being seriously considered by the SEC (with KU).  They want to up their basketball profile.

Again, could be nothing, but he called the Pac-16 thing and the Baylor/CU mess before it broke to the press.

Comes from the OSU side of things.

Boone has to be hoping the SEC is complete fantasy for KU.  Otherwise he will never get his coach.

That would be interesting.

We'd get demolished in football, but fair well in basketball IMO.

Mods, can we each get 2 EVO's?  Or an iphone 4 in addition to the EVO?

If the Nubs are leaving, I don't think Texas will stay. Nebraska was a vote they need to not have to share revenue.

This.  Anyone we would replace NU with would vote for revenue sharing and would basically tear apart the blockade that UT has on anyone doing things they don't want.  That's why UT could care less about MU, their replacement would vote the same way MU would/does.

Teams in the SEC we would be capable of competing with:

KU
Vanderbilt
Kentucky
South Carolina :dunno:
Mississippi State
Ole Miss :dunno:
Arkansas :dunno:

We would probably go bowling about as often as we have in the big 12 recently.

This is true. If you're going to get your ass kicked on the road, it might as well be in Florida.

The hilarious thing about all of this is that the Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) husker fans like to complain about the lack of revenue sharing in the Big 12.

I guess I'm in the school of thought that the mediocre SEC teams are still head and shoulders above the mediocre Big XII teams.

This doesn't really show in their bowl games, but it very well could be true. As long as we can still schedule 4 nonconference patsies and we get to play KU every year, we only would have to beat one team that is currently in the SEC to go bowling.

I think we'll be able to hit 6-8 wins fairly consistently if get a little better now that we're getting a little talent. BB, we'll be consistent top 3-4, I think.

We could use the money to schedule 4 patsies and get two SEC wins for bowl eligibility.

God, I dream of roadies to SEC locales to follow KSU.  I would probably take three months off to just RV down there.

Yeah, no stats to back this up, but I think that Arkansas would destroy us.  I think we would have issues with the MS schools too.  Hard to compare without playing head to head.

Plus side to the SEC is that we may actually start pulling a QB recruit every so often.

If this were true (and I'm not saying it is), we should build a statue of Bob Huggins in front of Hale Library and name it "The Savior of Kansas State University".

Would look even better if it's an action pose of him in a windbreaker while holding a can of Miller Lite.

He should also be patting a boy-sized Frank Martin on the head.

I don't see any downside to joining the SEC. Better recruiting, better road trips, better football conference, a conference that we will be favored in for basketball.......why didn't we try to move there earlier?

It really is.  EMAW hoops hasn't played a game in months.  Football is still two months away and is ranked like #94 or so preseason and I can't pull myself away from BBSing.  Everyday a new rumor pops up, a new story.  Gold Jerry. Gold!
