    Well, they need to put them in the leaders division then...you know how you guys like to call all the shots.... :lol:

    What a sad scenario. Hopefully KU, KSU, Baylor, etc., can survive this.

    I really wonder what has been know for awhile. When Dr. Tom came away from the meetings 2 years ago, he immediately called on the board of regents to let them know that his gut feeling was that the B12 was going to collapse.

    2 additional thoughts here:

    (1) Would TX be welcomed into the B10 in light of all the negative press last few months (I'm assuming the other schools cast votes and have input).

    (2) ND....hhhmmmm....makes sense....but what about all the individuality with the program. Independent is a pretty strong word. TX in opinion should go that route and then they can tailor things to their exact specifications, which pretty much is in place now. The majority on this board basically said "Never", but the tide is definitely turning. Would being in the B10 be beneficial or detremental when it comes to recruiting, revenue sharing, etc., or is the time coming no matter what that we need to do the Super Conferences?

    I wish you guys would go...
    Then the XII would officially collapse, and we could end this ridiculous maneuvering Baylor has started.

    They are going go be VERY sorry when this is all over...

    Not being the vindictive type, I would imagine you are right. Right now I would say that Baylor deserves whatever bad comes their way.

    Starting with laying a beating on them this weekend.
