Missouri President free to explore conference affiliation, which means . . .

MAC here we come!!!

Might be able to put some trophies in that empty trophy case.

God I wanted them in the Big Ten, Delany is stupid for not taking them. Great School, solid athletically, fits academically, natural rivals in the conference and brings in TV markets, they even wanted to join, now the SEC adds to its dominance.

I agree. As far as the Big Ten's expansion options go Mizzou is probably only behind Notre Dame.

Missouri wanted B1G Invite the Most

Yep, If both were added they'd be in a great position for the future. Damn ND has always got to be so stubborn!

I feel bad for them, they're like that desperate girl at the bar that just wants to go home with someone....anyone

So, rather than sign up and wait for 6 years, Mizzou is basically condemning their football program to mediocrity by joining the SEC.

Sources say Missouri has majority vote, but not enough to gain membership in the SEC.

I love it. They're the one team I've grown to hate over the years. I'd rate them right behind my discontent for Notre Dame and Pitt. I get so tired of them trying so hard to make the world take notice of them.

This keeps getting better and better. Imagine, after all of their posturing, if Missouri did not get accepted into the SEC.

Momentary hiccup. The markets alone make Missouri worth the price of admission into the conference, and that price is likely to be in negative territory when the CBS rights go out to auction.

It has never made much sense to me why the B1G hadn't grabbed Mizzou ... it's even more now. The thing about this is that if the B1G were to offer an invite to Mizzou at this critical time ... you would be taking the a big domino to the end of the Big 12. Ya, it could still survive ... but you would end up with a solid conference and all that could really be pieced together after that is perhaps the TeXas 12 or TeXas 10. Personally, screw ND ... give them one final offer to join and if they don't ... round it out to 14 and be done with it. I'd take Kansas from the Big 12 for basketball.

Ha, they have no luck. Many SEC fans don't want them.
