No one is coming back to the Big 12 unless the world is very, very, very, very different than today.

everyone knows that. I was saying what I wanted. our conference was so great. yes I want NU back. it's always better to have teams you dislike a lot in your conference than outside of it.

Anyone who doesn't agree with this is dumb. I miss Nubb and MIZ v hard. Loved hating them. And loved loving Kim English.

I do miss playing NU and MU but there is potential for securing KC and western Mo recruiting with those two now playing fewer games in the area. 

Would you give up playing UT, OU, and OSU every year to get NU and MU back?  Round robin in hoops as well.

Interesting Read. I've about had it with the Big 10. We're going on about 5 years of them f'ing with College Football. I think i'll root for all of their teams to fail for eternity.

Big Ten expansion: It isn't done. That's about all I can say. Hint: The conference will begin negotiating on a new TV deal next year. The current contract expires in 2016. Definitely stay tuned.

Stop it

I like it when Pete shows up and tries to parent his thread.  As soon as it hit 1000, he really took interest.  Like a dad who just heard his kid can dunk in the 8th grade.

Can you blame him.  He's got a lot to be proud of.  How many sports boards have over 1000 page threads; I don't think even Shaggy has one.

If they do take two, UConn will probably be one.  They fit the profile of an even number.

It won't be KU, though.  They have about every conceivable poison pill out there that would make them a PITA to bring in.  Missouri would be more likely.

Big Ten can only fail more in expansion. ACC and Big teams are untouchable because of GoR. The only logical move for the big  Ten to acquire/merge with the entire Big 12.

They can eat my ass. I realize the Big 10 has no interest in KSU, but the feeling is 100% mutual from me. I don't want to play boring games in those cold gross states.

That was months before the GOR was close to being completed.  They never signed it.

    Texas sees the B12 will be forced to expand to 12 to have a 9 game schedule. If they must be in a 12 member conf they want it to be the big 10
