Big 12 About to Implode

[pharmhand]

This has huge implications for all of college sports.

Looks like Nebraska will defect to the Big 10. Then, the Pac-10 will swallow up the Big 12 South - Baylor + Colorado to form the first 16 team super-conference. That in turn could set off a chain reaction...

Edit: crap, posted in wrong section. Could someone move this to STS?

This is only the beginning of a LOT of shifting in the conferences in the next few years.

BTW, you may want to get a mod to move this to the StS section.

BRING BACK THE SOUTHWEST CONFERENCE!!!

This leaves Texas A&M in a pickle. SEC won't take em. Neither will/would the Big Ten or PAC 10.

I wonder if the minor-Majors like Texas A&M, Okie State, etc get together.

 

[peterryan]

yessss

BRING BACK THE SOUTHWEST CONFERENCE!!!

too bad Texas wouldn't get to be a part of it! I miss the SWC

Lol I saw the title and thought another network was crashing and burning. I guess this thread should be in Shooting the Shit.

Illini ftw

 

[TFLNetwork]

I thought EWA, Copeac, C2m, A4D, w4, hydra, cx, CJ, Shareasale, tatto, affiliate.com and azoogle were goners

I'm going to laugh for a long time when Kansas has to join the Mountain West Conference and their basketball program tanks for a decade!

Yah, what will happen to one of the great BBall programs in NCAA history? Television revenue is what drives everything, particularly football revenue. They expanded the Big 12 so many times because of sheer greed, and Ironicially that will be the reason of it's demise.

And yah this thread should be in SS.

The B10 would take A&M , It is TT that they cant take .
