Nebraska to Big 10!

[ISUAgronomist]

Bottom line ticker on ESPN said Fox Sports Ohio has received CONFIRMATION that the Big 10 has invited Nebraska and they have accepted. Period. End of thread.

and yet CONFIRMATION its not on the front page of these website...:skeptical:

(not saying it won't happen)

This sucks.

Well I'm just saying, because this is like the 4th thread confirming NU leaving. And so far none of them turned out to be true... Yet.

Somebody needs to go outside and feed their pink unicorn some gumdrops and Cadbury eggs. All will be fine in the fantasy land you live in.

so does big 12 go in find a replacement mode or packing up and moving mode.

Agree. It just popped on the ticker so it will take a while for the website update. IMO

Well, if Nebraska + the South teams are all gone, then we still have 5 teams left in our league...enough to remain viable, I think. Hopefully in the near future, all of the remaining ADs will be on the phones with each other trying to recruit some of the top MWC teams and maybe a couple from the (soon to be dead?) Big East. If we don't have any Texas teams left, then TCU and Houston look pretty good. Add Cincinnati, Louisville, Utah, BYU, and a school like Wyoming, and you've got a pretty nice conference.

East - ISU, KU, KSU, MU, Cincy, Louisville
West - CU, Utah, BYU, TCU, Houston, Wyoming

???

All signs point to pack up and move out.

Whatever happened to our belov-ed governor, putting us in the big ten? I thought he was meeting with the coaches today? (and no... I haven't checked the governor's twitter acct. today)

Don't worry, Dan Beebe is in charge...so we'll just sit back and wait for things to happen (ie. the conference to implode).

Don't worry... Dan said he was quite comfortable that the Big XII would remain intact. There is absolutely nothing to worry about as Dan surely did his homework.

The first thing they need to do is Fire Bebeeeee. Then look around see what is left of their conference, move the office back to KC, see what teams from the Big East are without a conference put them together and find a new name for the conference.

Go get em chuck, this is being done for dollars and that'll make it vulnerable.

 

[DSM4Cy]

This sucks.

What would be better? I know this means a lot less revenue than we currently have, but tell me, what option doesn't mean that? I figure that it's better than ending up in C-USA or a full MWC with teams like Colorado State weighing down the bottom of the league.

The Replacements?

I wonder if that didn't just effectively happen?

My dentist says that it is a done deal...Mizzou to SEC

the south shall rise again!!!

 

[thatguy]

Kiss it goodbye folks.

I can't wait for that rivalry with New Mexico and Colorado State!!!!

 

[simply1]

If we get 10 wins every year, I guess the mwc would work

Nearly everyone on this board has been in this entire "woe is us" ******** about realignment the past few weeks. At this point, nearly everyone is just blindly believing any and all rumors out there as fact.
