Comments on: MU Board Chairman: No SEC Talk “Until The Appropriate Time” http://mrsec.com/2011/10/mu-board-chairman-no-sec-talk-until-the-appropriate-time/ Up to the minute SEC football and basketball news Tue, 21 May 2013 14:02:22 +0000 hourly 1 By: Steven http://mrsec.com/2011/10/mu-board-chairman-no-sec-talk-until-the-appropriate-time/comment-page-1/#comment-28370 Steven Fri, 21 Oct 2011 20:17:56 +0000 http://www.mrsec.com/2011/10/mu-board-chairman-no-sec-talk-until-the-appropriate-time/#comment-28370 An invite to the Big 12 is a win? Sorry but as a long time MU fan I can't agree with that. There are very definite reasons Nebraska, Colorado, Texas A&M and Missouri wanted out and those reason are still in the room and nothing has changed.

If Missouri does jump to the SEC and WVU gets an invite to the Big 12 I do wish them luck. They don't deserve the dysfunctional Big 12 and would probably be better off trying to stay in the Big East and talking Louisville and others into staying. Maybe in a few years the SEC goes to 16 teams and wants them and they're locked into a conference where they have given up their TV rights for 6 years to it.

I live in Charlotte and would look foward to driving to Columbia for a South Carolina/West Virginia game. South Carolina/Missouri does not interest me.

WVU will win no matter what.

I was hoping they'd stay put.

KC is concerned about the loss of the big 12 tourney and the Rivalry between KU and MU which dates back to a hatred of the civil war days. The Jayhawkers raided Missouri towns for the union and Quantrill's raiders fought against them over in Kansas and It was a bloody time in the history of this area. Jesse and Frank James were part of Quantrill's raiders and it's said that Jesse and his gang were basically the same bushwhackers refusing to give up the fight against the unionists.

To this day the KC area of Missouri and Kansas still don't have much love for each other. I was working as a bouncer in a bar several years back on the Missouri side and noticed one night in the bathroom someone had written on the wall. Kansas: It ain't the end of the world but you sure can see the end from there.

Mike Slive & the SEC have historically been pretty tight-lipped regarding expansion. As pointed out on this site several times, Mizzou has had a problem keeping things under their hat so-to-speak and might need to learn how to control the message they are sending by, well, controlling the message.

Good to see Mizzou got the hint.

We can certainly wait a little while longer for the official announcements.

We even want to shower you with money and take you home!

Besides, I need a reason to visit my terrible in-laws in MIssouri. Gameday may be it.
