Mizzou and SEC 'inevitable and imminent'

In related news I am headed down the path to get some breakfast....


BTW, why a board of curators? Is Mizz some sort of museum or a University?

"The SEC may have to make room for another team of Tigers."

That's a good point. If Mizzou joins, the SEC will have too many "Tigers". I suggest LUS change their mascot to the Bayou Bengals and Aubie change their mascot to War Eagles. That would minimize the volume of "Tigers" in the SEC.

FNG has to pick up another mascot.

HA!Good points! 3 Tiger teams in the same conference? That is surely a violation that the NCAA will stumble onto 3-5 years from now

But after a lengthy investigation they will find nothing.

IMO, the SEC is selling itself short with this decision. Surely they can find somebody more desireable on the East coast. I think the SEC is in a hurry to add a 14th team and in the long run will be disappointed for settling with an inferior team like Mizzou.

Agree...they are all panicking and there will probably another shuffle in 2-3 years. JMO.

Who else was it going to be? WVU boo. ACC locked up all of their schools with the huge buyout clause.

I see your point. However, there are no teams in the "elite" status that want to move.

I think you are right. There will be a reshuffling in the next 3-5 years.

13 team schedule would be a nightmare. May be do able for one year, but not multiple years.

Money talks.

Who cares. Mizz would never make it in the SEC

That's the biggest issue. We need to get to an even number.

When the re-shuffle happens, we can add (or remove) the necessary teams.
