great discussion guys.

I'm just wondering:

Has everybody in the Big 12 lost their minds?

This is all so ridiculous, and it is fueled by fear and mistrust instead of anything resembling logic. This isn't about right and wrong. It is, like virtually everything else in college athletics, about winning and losing.

it almost makes so much sense that it hurts.

Iowa State and the Kansas schools would act out of self-interest, too, if they were allowed to act. Instead they are desperately putting frosting on cupcakes for their annual athletic department bake sales.

lol

two individuals with official ties to Oklahoma State and a current Pac-12 Conference school said that it is going to happen, Oklahoma State and Oklahoma will soon be joining the Pac-12 making it at least the Pac-14 ... The other pair in lieu of Texas and Texas Tech appear to be Kansas and Missouri or Kansas and Kansas State

A K-State alum ran the Big 12 and proposed a conference network, the Big 12 schools said they weren't interested.   He then went to the Big 10 and got the Big 10 network going, he is now 2nd in command in the Pac-12 and is considered the strategic mastermind behind what Larry Scott is doing.

In the movie about the Big 12 collapse, I'd like Weiberg's character to be played by Matt Damon.

Yep.

Between Cheyenne Zulu, Deloss and Weiberg this thing is a piece of cake.

Is this the guy that gets ksu into the pacx when the big12 falls apart?

[sonofdaxjones]

I think Damon is an excellent choice Pete.

Seth Rogan will play Beebe??  Yes . . . No . . .

Jim Belushi.

[sonofdaxjones]

Yeah, need an older guy than Rogan, Belushi would work.

It just won't die.

Also, still say the panja commenter has presented the most logical, plausible scenario out there.

[kitten_mittons]

What is Pissclams childhood friend Mipp12 saying on the subject?

[catzacker]

guys, don't do this to yourself.  Mountain West or bust.

Although let’s say god does fall asleep at the wheel and we do get in the pac-12, I feel just terrible for CU.  Those beautiful looking, fantastic smelling people deserve better than to have to deal with the stench of Okies and Kansans coming to Boulder.

I guess its a good thing for posters like you that CU/Bolder doesn't have scratch and sniff travel guides.

It will be amazing.

but really, the longer things are silent, the more I think the Big 12 survives.
