  1. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Missouri boards were in meltdown mode at some of the rumors about how the new Big 12's pay structure was going to be but in the end those look to be nothing more than false rumors picked up and circulated through the media. Right now all we know is - Nobody has actually signed anything yet but...

  2. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    That fits with what is being hinted at by reliable insiders on Mizzou's pay site. Also the last month Mizzou has been exceptionally quite. I've never seen MU so good at keeping news from leaking out. I'm guessing that has something to do with the Big Ten conference.

  3. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Forget Branson. The Lake of the Ozarks is only an hour south of Columbia and unless you are a senior citizen it's much more fun.

  4. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Why would you want CU over MU? Missouri - Larger Population (5,987,580) - Two large media markets - borders two current Big Ten states and three if you add Nebraska - Good Football and Basketball programs - 71,000 Capacity Football Stadium - Already has a rivalry with Illinois and Nebraska and...

  5. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Here is an interesting ranking of schools combining football and men's basketball during the BCS era. Rivals.com College Football - Best of both: BCS era combined standings Big Ten Teams 2. Ohio State 6. Michigan State 8. Wisconsin 20. Purdue Teams mentioned as expansion candidates 2. Texas...

  6. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    How about Missouri, Nebraska, Texas, Texas A&M, and another school (Notre Dame, Maryland, or Rutgers). Here are some Texas AD quotes from the Big 12 meetings in K.C.

  7. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    For those that think The Big Ten would need to add Notre Dame or Texas for expansion to be successful I have to disagree. If the Big Ten added the following schools Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, Syracuse, and Rutgers it would have the following metro areas with a population of 1,000,000+...

  8. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Here's a different idea for expansion. Form two 10 team divisions or really conferences under the Big Ten title that share rules and revenue and meet in a post season conference tournament to determine a champion. In football you would play each team in your division for a 9 game conference...

  9. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    I don't know if it is a done deal but if the Big Ten expands by more than one team I would be surprised if Missouri isn't one of them. Missouri is a safe pick for the Big Ten. We are solid in both major sports, we're the only football D1 school in a new state with two large media markets...

  10. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Here is my take on what I could see happening. Missouri, Nebraska, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, and Syracuse go to the Big Ten as rumored unless Notre Dame wakes up first and then they replace Pitt in that line up. We form 4 divisions of 4 teams also as rumored. This makes the most sense for a 16...

  11. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Personally I like the look of this. Missouri, Texas, and Texas A&M to the Big Ten The Big Ten with Missouri, Texas, and Texas A&M East: Indiana Michigan Michigan State Northwestern Ohio State Penn State Purdue West: Illinois Iowa Minnesota Missouri...

  12. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Missouri has Alumni living in all 50 states and D.C. so I decided to look up how many were living in Big Ten territory and this is what I found. I would be curious to see a break down like this for other schools that are being mentioned from outside the Big Ten's current footprint. It would be...

  13. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Here is a crazy idea. Be the first Super Conference. The Big 20? Add Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, Syracuse, and West Virginia. Two ten team divisions or really leagues under the same conference title. Imagine the TV deals this conference could...

  14. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    It's an old Big Eight thing. MU, NU, KU, OU, CU, ISU, OSU, KSU. I'm not sure why they did it that way but I like that the whole league did it.

  15. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    To be honest hockey is the one sport I can't ever seem to get into so I'm not sure how good our club team is or how far away from D1 they are but here is a link to their website. Mizzou Hockey

  16. Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    I just read the last few pages of this thread and thought I would pass along some info on the University of Missouri. - In fall 2009, MU welcomed a record 31,314 students representing every county in Missouri, every state in the nation and more than 100 countries. This is the eighth year in a...
