That's what he's insinuating anyway.  Bohls is a mouthpiece for the Horns though.

I still think Mizzou ends up in the Big 10.

Most of these Mountain West scenarios are probably going to come down to them adding ISU and KSU.

If the MWC takes on just 2 more teams, and K-State is one of them--what would be the other one?  Fresno State?  This is assuming Baylor is going to get locked out.

No, it would be Iowa State.

I think we'll see KU in the SEC.

This will be hilarious in football.  But, their basketball would flourish.  The Kentucky vs. KU match ups would rival the Duke vs. UNC hype on ESPN.

At this point I'm just happy to not be Baylor or MU. Baylor is getting kick in the balls as the step child of the Texas schools. MU got arrested for trying to turn tricks on the corner before it even got its first client. ISU might be in better shape then these two, meanwhile KSU and KU seem to be sitting on a park bench watching the whole thin unfold.

Completely wrong, except Baylor.  MU and KU will be fine.  We are just completely and totally 100% mumped in the ass.

even in "super 16" conference scenarios, we'd be left out,.

well the Texas media types have been speculating that the gov needs to keep the teams together for political reasons. I don't pretend to be real knowledgeable on tx politics though.

we're probably mumped and mu and ku are probably fine but i wouldn't put anything at 100%. the sec isn't going to expand just to expand. at least it doesn't seem that way. if they can't get a&m and i'd say it's around 50% right now, they'll probably stay put. a lot of them aren't that happy with the last teams they took in and they don't seem to excited to bring in more athletic dead weight just to do it.

if a&m goes to pac 10, again 50%, then ku isn't getting that pac 10 invite. even if a&m doesn't go pac 10, ku isn't guaranteed to replace them. utah is a serious possibility.

so if ku doesn't get the pac 10 invite, which i'd say is less than 50%...where are they going? and for mu, there are some rumors that they might be completely off the big1 list because 1. notredame doesn't want another school to the west added and 2. the big 10 wants to get out on the east coast due to wanting the tv's and to try and collapse the big east and thus force notre dame to join.

best thing that could happen for ksu would be for ku to not get the pac 10. big 10 to continue to slow play things and ku, isu, mu and ku to join up with the big east and have the big east be incredibly serious and aggresive about keeping their conference.

as much as i would hate to see ku go to a better conference then us it makes sense. ive heard the sec doesnt want to add any good football schools anyway they feel no use making things harder then they are and like you said the kentucky vs ku in bball would be great for them. if a&m choose pac 10 are then ku in a bind? like ku would be tagging along with them to the sec to keep things even. so if a&m go pac 10 does the sec still try to add ku and another team or just keep what they have for now and see how things play out

I think the way things are going, 4 16's are more likely, but I suppose if there were 5, by almost default we'd be in one of them.

Dax said there would be 5.  Something about politcal pressure or something.

The Big 10 wants KU, they just aren't showing their hand yet.  They're still trying to convince ND to sleep with them, and they are evaluating the Rutgers scenario.  I don't think they give a crap about MU, but KU+MU would be a nice package.

everyone says this, but in the 4 16's what big boy gets left out?  none.  i mean, Orin Hatch can bitch and moan all he wants, but when a majority of the state's are, essentially, taken care of with regards to their teams in the 4 super 16's, nothing will come out of it.
