WE'RE mumped!!!

[goldenticket]

A.  Keep Big 12 goiing with inclusion of a 2 decent schools.  TCU, Houston, New Mexico perhaps.

honestly if we have the texas/a&m/tech/baylor we wouldnt need tcu or houston. i would take a run at utah (even though pac-10 has interest in them) and memphis. also i wouldnt mind if we utah and byu had to come as a pair. new mexico would be ok. im sure we could find two teams that would be decent. maybe the big 12 could get that fox sports national deal that was talked about if only nebraska left

SD . . . you deleted your schadenfreude post??

1% still thinks that DeLoss has to to be looking at 9.5 other schools quietly or otherwise begging for the Big 12 to stay in tact and salivating.   Plus . . . LOL at these academics chiming in, I still can't believe that academics in the era of information and technology we live in still believe that athletic affiliations matter AND that the people currently running major conference athletics give 2 turds about academics when it boils down to brass tacks.

I thought about it and decided I may not be using schadenfreude right.  Can you enjoy schadenfreude since the word already means enjoying the suffering of others?  I suck at spelling, grammar, etc. so I got scared 

No worries.


schadenfreude
\SHOD-n-froy-duh\ , noun;
1.
A malicious satisfaction obtained from the misfortunes of others.

I know what it means, just not how to use it.....GOD DAMNIT CAN WE JUST GO BACK TO TALKING ABOUT K-STATE BEING frackED!?

Okay . . . as soon as it's officially announced that we're fracked, I'll put together a little photo montage of future football roadie stadiums.    It will be exciting to have the 2nd or 3rd largest stadium in our new conference.

Texas A&M regents have the votes to join the SEC and could announce that move as early as next week, sources tell Orangebloods.com

boom goes the dynamite

[sonofdaxjones]

SEC commish was at A&M.   Remember, Gene Stallings is on the A&M Board.

[sonofdaxjones]

Pac 10 gets the Big 12 5, plus Utah.   They lock up the Pacific Coast, Mountain West and the Southwestern States that matter.  

[hatingfrancisco]

That would pretty much sew it up eh?

[goldenticket]

so is the thought ku will be tagging along with a&m now?

[goldenticket]

ah cool. if ku cant make it to the pac 10 or sec and missouri cant make it to the big 10 then things might work out for us

is there any reason utah would turn down the pac 10 and thus make the spot open for ku?

SEC adds . . .

Virginia Tech

Clemson

Georgia Tech

In roads into the heart of ACC country and a school with a 70,000 seat stadium,  lock down South Carolina and a school with an 80,000 seat football Stadium, complete lockdown of Georgia and the ATL and Georgia Tech now with over 70,000 seats.  

If so, the ACC is on the clock and kiss the Big East goodbye.

Oklahoma Sushi??  Hope they had the fish flown in.

Dax if I remember correctly you were leaning more towards 5 16 team conferences because of political pressures.  Does this mean you think Big East doesn't survive this and MWC rounds out the 5th conference?

Yep . . . The ACC grabs the 7 of the 8 Big East Football Schools, maybe all 8 if Maryland goes to the Big 10.

They way this could unfold . . . would not be shocked to find out someday that Pac, Big 10, SEC, ACC, and MWC commish's colluded.

Would not count out Dan and Timmy being in on it. Bet the land somewhere in one of the new conferences.

Timmy's had his eye on the next Section over from the Section he bought using the loan from K-State . . . suddenly that's not such a pipe dream anymore.

I agree.  It seems like those in the know have been speculating about the Big 64 breaking away from the NCAA for a few months now.  I just hope we are part of it.  Not feeling to optimistic.
