So, we add however many BE remnants needed to add up to 12 and call it good?  Might not be that terrible.

Would be sweet if the OU/OSU/TT/UT group stayed we added the 6 BE schools and said, "eff You ACC, B10, SEC, PAC we got our 16, and we aren't breaking up.  Have fun ripping each other apart."  Will it happen, almost certainly not.  Would I love it?  Yes.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Just trying to be positive bro.  Not saying it's likely but it's better than stewing on the negatives.  Hell, we were pretty sure all hell was gonna break loose last year and we ended up ok.  crap, there I go again.

word out of OU is that they have two options:  PacWhatever & Big12 with equal revenue sharing.  Texas is either going to have to ditch their television station or go indy.  no conference will have them with it.  

Oklahoma is such a bitch.  Jesus Christ what huge vaginas to want this rough ridin' Utopian big 12 now.  Now I wish that kid had gotten into the stadium before he blew himself up.
:cry: MIR, Mrs. MIR, and lil MIRs likely wouldn't be around.  We sat on that side, felt the stadium rumble when he made himself into little bits.

can't you have a LHN and equal revenue sharing?

Apparently not.  I do not think ou is serious about the big 12.  Make some bullsh#t request of UT knowing full well UT won't accept so you can make yourself feel better when you leave.  Bob getting an extension has to mean something, poster on the other site said bob told ou if they stay in the big 12 he will leave (ohio state will need a coach soon).

I'm so sick of these schools worrying about not being the "bad guy". eff all of you. You're all bad guys.

YES. Nebraska, Texas A&M, OU, and Texas can all go eff themselves, regardless of how this works out. I'm not really all that upset with Colorado for some reason.

Please don't lump Texas in with those other losers.  UT is doing exactly what they were given permission to do.  Blaming Texas is like blaming the pretty girl for being hated just because she's prettier than the 7s and 8s talking crap on her.

The last part makes me tremendously sad and basically encapsulates entirely what Totuga was saying earlier.

Nobody wins here.

This is about killing your neighbor over panic and fear.

This is very different than VT's reaction in 2003 or BC's reaction a year later. Everyone with whom I have spoken is a little bit sad that it has reached this point and everyone is lamenting losing the Big East Tournament in MSG. However they are also mostly resolved that this is probably in our best long term interests because of the stability the new league will provide us. Also, most believe that WVU is a at least a decent bet to get an SEC invite.


Such horseshit.  As I said yesterday, these losers claiming they are leaving their conference for stability are causing the instability.  Pitt, Syracuse, A&M, and OU are the biggest culprits. Even if the Big East lost WVU they would have been more than fine.  Pitt and SU completely blind sided the conference and should face extreme shame and ridicule for it.

Anyone who voted against equal revenue sharing from the beginning is to blame.  It was the first nail in the coffin against a strong, long-lasting B12.  No other major conference has powerplays such as this, and they all share revenue equally.

Kansas Board of Regents to discuss realignment Thursday



Ed McKechnie, chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents, said Monday night that the board has added conference realignment to its agenda Thursday.

The meeting, which will be held in executive sessions with officials from both KU and K-State present, is roughly scheduled for noon but the time could change, he said. The Big 12 and legal options will be discussed.

"I remain confident the Big 12 will survive," McKechnie said. "In 10 years, I think Nebraska and Colorado will look back and regret leaving. The Big 12 has a bright future and a lot more to offer as a sum than its parts.

"I am confident and hopeful that in the end everyone will talk and find a way to put this all back together.

"There are a lot of options out there, and I'm willing to listen.

"As long as five schools remain committed, the Big 12 will exist. We are confident that will happen. We expect everybody to live up to their obligations and honor the contracts they have signed."

Really....??  :goodbyecruelworld:

The longer they deny what's going on the longer they can put off making any real decisions. They are basically hoping the situation works itself out in the mean time.

"If conference commissioners were the founding fathers of this country, we would have Guatemala, Uruguay and Argentina in the United States," Boeheim said. "This audience knows why we are doing this. There's two reasons: Money and football.

I love Boeheim.

oh, man. Wish we could have been in his conference just to get Manhattan comments.

What's great is that boeheim's comments will only spark the "rivalries" that will only validate that super conferences are super awesome.  when in fact all it takes is coaches not being such politically correct whores.  re:  billy tubbs.

saw on ESPN this morning that Notre Dame is going to the ACC if they HAVE to join a conference.  apparently they don't like the huskers...

anyone else find it funny that OU and aTm was all  :kstategrad: about getting more money than the other 7 of us but when Texas figured out a way to get more than those 2 they are alike "we should have equal profit sharing".  what a bunch of vags.

If ND is going ACC then if the Big 10 wants to expand, MU, KU, Rutgers, Uconn are their options, essentially.  With each passing day that OU/UT play their quasi-homsexual dick measuring contest, we are just entrenching ourselves in the Mountain West.

true. those options make it more likely the Big 10 won't expand.

Andy Katz thinks that MWC and C-USA are coing to merge into a Double Super conference and become BCS AQ worth. We need to start looking at the MAC as our only option.

Such horseshit.  As I said yesterday, these losers claiming they are leaving their conference for stability are causing the instability.  Pitt, Syracuse, A&M, and OU are the biggest culprits. Even if the Big East lost WVU they would have been more than fine.  Pitt and SU completely blind sided the conference and should face extreme shame and ridicule for it.

Agreed.  They are all complicit.  I'm just saying OU and people like David Boren are more to blame for the widespread sentiment of instability that exists now and the creation of this tidal wave of fear that has been propagated tenfold by the media.  This is really the root cause by which others are panicking and acting irrationally.  And it will continue as these egotistical fucks hold everyone hostage as they negotiate out their secret, back alley deals for themselves.

My point isn't that Pitt and Syracuse aren't to blame for being a part of the larger problem.  They are.  I'm just saying it's a sad state of affairs and that the big losers in all of this are the fans of college sports.

someone asked about EERHole a while back. Oh man, do I hate this guy:

Quote
Riddle me this, riddle me that

All hope for the Big East has fallen flat

Pitt and Syracuse were the first to flee

Is the door still open for you and me?

 

Surprise, surprise we love the ACC

Said Syracuse and Pitt's ADs

First it was BC, VT and Miami

The lawsuit a distant memory

 

The fate of the EERs is not in our hands

It will be decided in the heartland

Boomer and Bevo control their destiny

As for us, we'll have to wait and see

 

Will we be in the ACC or the SEC

Or sentenced to Stoors and Tampa indefinitely?

Beware of anyone who claims to know for certain

Not even Ollie knows what's behind the next curtain....

I kind of don't care anymore. If we end up in a BCS-lite conference so be it. Let's just be prepared to pillage everything in our path. I mean TCU and Boise fans are having a blast the past few seasons. Heck, Boise even got in a little trouble with the NCAA which means they are doing something right and having lots of fun.
