Big 10 and Pac-10 Expansion Begins - LUDICROUS SPEED! GO!!!
Here's what we know is absolutely true: Colorado has joined the Pac-10. Boise State has joined the Mountain West. Nebraska is pledging allegiance to the Big 10, if not joining outright. (UPDATE: It's official, they're in.) This article is officially hilarious. Even though he ended up being...
Colorado and Nebraska Have Jumped Ship – How Stable Is the Ground We're Standing On?
It's official, the first shots have been fired in the Great Conference Realignment of 2010. Colorado has scheduled a press conference to announce its defection to the Pac 10, and Nebraska has all but signed on the line with the Big 10. Which means, for a brief moment at least, my fondest dream has...
It's Over
While the title of this post may be a bit melodramatic, all signs point toward the end of the Big 12 -- at least as we know it -- by shortly after noon on Friday. I'm happy that I will actually be in New York when this occurs, as Kansas City is pretty much ground zero for the bomb Nebraska is...
Omaha World-Herald - NU to Big 10 as early as Friday?
The Omaha World-Herald's Lee Barfknecht writes that Nebraska's announcement on a move to the Big 10 could come as early as Friday. Direct confirmation from Nebraska of a conference change for the Huskers wasn't immediately available. Sources at two other Big 12 schools told The World-Herald that...
The Dominoes Are About To Fall. Where Will K-State End Up?
Last week, our collective jaws hit the floor when Chip Brown of Orangebloods reported that the Pac-10 was considering extending invitations to six Big 12 schools to join what would apparently become the Pac-16. This report followed months of speculation that Missouri and Nebraska were candidates...
PREPARE SHIP FOR LUDICROUS SPEED
Full story here: The Pac-10 board has given commissioner Larry Scott the authority to pursue any possible expansion for the conference. Scott spoke following the conclusion of the conference meetings in San Francisco on Sunday. Earlier in the day, he addressed the chancellors and presidents...
ESPN - Report: Huskers, Mizzou face ultimatum
The Big 12 has drawn a line in the sand for at least two member schools. The conference, amid a chorus of story lines that would all significantly change the face of big-league college sports, has imposed a deadline of Friday for Nebraska and Missouri to state their intentions on whether they...
Is the ACC's new TV deal a positive sign for the Big 12?
In what ended up being a somewhat surprising duel, ESPN beat out FOX for the right to broadcast the Atlantic Coast Conference's football and basketball games. Standing alone, that probably wouldn't be news worth discussing on a K-State blog, but in the current context of college sports, it...
Today's Developments: What I Think We Know
Today, the plot thickened as 810 WHB in Kansas City reported that the Big 10 had made "initial offers" to Missouri, Nebraska, Notre Dame and Rutgers, according to anonymous sources. It seemed like a slightly more reliable report than the "done deal" we heard out of Columbia, Mo.'s KOMU last week,...
