ku being tied to kstate is not hurting them. being a basketball only school with overall shitty athletics and no tv sets is what's hurting them.

Didn't the exact same thing happen to the Big East in 2003?

So lets say Ku is indeed a 'basketball only school with overall shitty athletics'. What does that make Ksu?

And how would it help to be tied to Ksu?

Ku is Ksu's only chance at remaining relevant.

Muster up some amount of honesty and ask yourself, who(between ku and ksu) has a better chance at being picked up by these future super conferences?

Now ask yourself, who then benefits most by being artificially tied to the other?

answering this question is like asking which is more likely to happen: something with a 1/1million chance or a 1/2million chance?  But, I mean, feel free to blame ksu for ku not even being wanted by anyone.

don't really get the "ultimatum".  "hey, nebraska (and possibly mu), you need to tell us you're committed to the big 12, even though the entire south division might leave."  so NU's supposed to take everyone else's word that they're not going to bolt to the PAC-10?  it seems like someone (i.e. Texas) knows that NU doesn't have an offer from the Big 10 or won't be invited by the big 10 and is just trying to make sure NU knows that they are (the state of) Texas's bitch. 

i assume that all schools would be making some kind of agreement/contract that if they leave the big12 within the next 10 years or whatever that they will owe millions and millions or something. if neb signs/agrees then everybody else does as well. or maybe everybody else already has and it's contingent on neb signing as well or something.
def trying to force nubbs hand. sign/agree now with the rest of us or face the possibility that the big10 might not want you afterall and then you're screwed cause texas and ou are already in the pac10 and your stuck w/ kstate, iowa state, ku.

yeah, you'd just think they'd mention that in a story.  "everyone has signed the 'Texas Ultimatum' except NU and MU and they have until June 14th to do so".

chances of ND joining big 10?  I'd put that at 20%.  the best part of all of this is CU get fracking owned by Baylor.  can't wait for our country to get off oil and move to meth energy or something so the state of Kansas can get rich.

I think the fact that the Big East would probably be no more if they don't join the B10 is making them more receptive.  They can be indep. in football without issues but can't in other sports.  And, I don't think the new ACC/Big East combo would allow them in without football.

we (meaning the retards leftover in the big 12) would take them in basketball.

my hope is that the Big 12 stays together, but the results of all of this is that the schools just hating the sh*t out of each other in public.  more like the big 8 was.

I cannot wait to point and laugh at everyone in the entire state of Nebraska when the Big 10 finally talks ND into putting out and quits returning TO's phone calls.

I could be wrong but I'm not sure that no Big East in football really does anything to hurt the Big East with regards to bball.

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.

This has kind of been happening already on facebook.  Lew even got himself banned for something outrageous he said.
