What about Kansas?

[I <3 OSU]

If the Big Ten expands more, I see Kansas as being a great potential add. They are a great fit geographically, obviously have a great basketball program, and would be good enough academically, I think. Sure, it seems that football is the most important consideration; but I think that Kansas has the potential to become a very solid football program with Turner Gill, especially if they were in the Big Ten.

Let's assume that Notre Dame is out of the equation, as they are trying to be: wouldn't you prefer, for example, Kansas and Missouri over two crappy Big East teams? I like the idea of sticking to the Midwest, and I would love to see Kansas join.

What do you think?:

Illinois
Indiana
Iowa
Kansas
Michigan
Michigan State
Minnesota
Missouri
Nebraska
Northwestern
Ohio State
Penn State
Purdue
Wisconsin

I think

- we already have threads for big ten expansion, who will be added
have discussed Kansas there (and will surely do so many more times)
- will not be changing our policy on starting duplicate threads.
