This SEC voting in a&m if we sign waivers thing... is it just a nice way to not expand?  "Well we tried, but the Big12 peeps wouldn't not sue us!"  They had to know we wouldn't sign that crap. 

A&M IS GONE

Oh, I don't want them back.  I hope they're forced to shop around and end up in the Big East or go Independent for a couple of years or something.

Petty stuff.

What a fantastic day to have the day off.  I couldn't have asked for a better day in retrospect.

He had this one bit with a train that was just superb.

Maybe it was D. Scott.

I don't know, but someone used a bit about a train, and it was nice.

Anyone hear Petro on 810 this afternoon saying KU, MU, and KSU should just go to the Big East now?

Does he have the money to pay our exit fees, or what?

It was Oldfella.  Yes, nice indeed.

Soren was dead set(read as radio strong arming all his guests) on KSU saying eff it and going to the MWC last go round.  Said that we would be better off with half the money we have now and reign as king of MWC than to get our $20m per year and stay in Big12.

I don't think we would even get 1/4 of $20m in the MWC. Of course, Petro is a dumbass.

BITB just highlighted this statement by KS BoR chair:

Quote
"Again, our preference is for the Big 12 to stay together, and that they're both in BCS-qualifying conferences," McKechnie said of the two Kansas schools. "One of the challenges we have is to switch the Big 12 from being a football conference to being an inclusive academic conference. So we have some work to do and we're prepared to roll up our sleeves and work to keep the Big 12 together."

What the hell does that even mean?  He wants Pitt State (alum) to be able to join the Big 12?

It sounds to me like he is setting up the BE as an elite destination.

He just took everyone through a thought process explaining why the people of the east are better than mid-westerners and that the good ones didn't migrate back in the day and only the losery type did.  Given this, we are all losery and stuff and our unis take nothing but a basic ACT score to get into, but the east, they have Harvard and Yale, etc.

LOL at "Pitt State" and "academic conference" being used in the same sentence.

I think he's pointing out without saying it that a major reason we won't get a nod to another major conference is that our academic standards are that of most junior colleges?

I like how A&M claims they are trying to go to the SEC because it's in their best interest, not because their dick is smaller than Texas's, but they bitch that Baylor is doing what is in their best interest by trying to hold A&M to the contracts they've signed.
