What's this?

See Maroon Baboon's post below


What do the State Legislators in Kansas and Oklahoma do when OU and KU leave OSU and KSU behind? Maybe the "almighty" Delany can work those politics and push OSU and KSU to the curb without recourse. Where does Texas Tech go if UT bolts for the B1G or ACC?

Personally, because of State politics, combined with academic stature (i.e. academic rankings, AAU status, blah, blah, blah), I feel that the majority of Big XII schools are bound for the PAC if that conference should implode. Mainly because the PAC isn't as caught up with AAU status like the B1G and has a few member universities with lower rankings.

Plus, many of those universities went to the PAC well once before to take a sip of water. I think they'll be jumping in if there is a next time.

As for Mizzou I can see them bolting for the B1G. I'd love to see the reaction of the SEC if Delany poached one of their own. But honestly, I don't see the incentive for Mizzou to leave the SEC for the B1G at this point, unless Delany can bypass Kansas State legislators and grab KU.
