Interesting article though I think it's a touch flawed. The conclusion - that the Big Ten and SEC are in their prime positions due to selectivity in expansion - is bordering on dumb. You take two conferences in the areas of the country where cfb is the most important (outside Texas) and full of several big schools and then you give one a contract with cbs and one it's own tv network. Which conferences will be most stable in an era where colleges have lost their minds chasing cfb $? The ACC and Big 12 are in just as much CFB-dominated areas of the country as the Big Ten and SEC. The Pac-10 expanded with two teams that really don't pull in much market share. They're really only in good shape if they land Texas and Oklahoma. After the Big East got raided for Miami and Virginia Tech, there just isn't much left there for football markets. oh, his V Tech idea for the Big Ten was the one I was most surprised by, and maybe makes some sense.

BYU's fanbase is overrated, I'd agree with that.

I guess Rutgers makes sense market-wise, but man it just seems weird to me. ND, Texas, Mizzou, sure. Kansas and UConn I'm so-so on.

I read that opposite, since Kansas had a stronger fan base they would be the favorites. The only thing running contrary to that was Rutgers strong showing in NYC itself. But I really didnt read any conclusion by Silver, did I miss it? In what way did you read that Kansas had a stronger fan base than Rutgers? ah...I confused Missouri with Kansas. I meant Mizzou. Same difference really. mizzou/kansas... nvm

Another rumor that they're eyeballing Tech. Or maybe they prefer MU to WVU, which makes sense to me. I think that's why TT doesn't like it. I'd blow a homeless man to get into the SEC right now. As long as we're in a real conference, I'll be happy. See Minnesota - things are looking up for you already. idk, beards weird me out.

more then anything, it seems to explain the false starts. the edge rushers were at least partially due to Davis (TE) not picking them up tho. -
I don't know. I graduated from a Big Ten school and technically am a drop-out and homeless. I am typing this from the local library with the help of a 2nd grader.

BEEN THERE can we pencil you in for right tackle? -
so two big ten alumns have confused a nd alum? is the universe about to implode? also the imb bit, ouch.

it just takes a superior level of being "human", is that what your saying?
-
what? I'm showing empathy for your plight.

Hit a little close to home, did I? Coming from another Big Ten alum. Where's OMC or Vance? Let's compare academic stats with those goofball southern schools. ? Ole Miss doesnt count, duh. thats one of those goofy clown schools, where you either learn 1. law or 2. piling as many people into a mini cooper as possible.
-
I still think it's all being driven by football media revenue. I don't know how the teams could come up with their own tourney and keep all these other schools out. maybe the Big Ten teams will just drop out like most of their alumni. Hit a little close to home, did I? its just that every time I see a homeless man, I think "there lies another tragic University of Indiana failure.." we're just not equipped socially to land in those posh places like Grand Rapids.

that sounds like Kansas's only hope for inclusion to one of them,or strongest hope

Indi-who? I prefer [expletive] on Indiana...but why are people supposed to talk about them when the topic is conference realignment??? We're not, I'm just pissed my school has become such an afterthought. Haha. No one's thought of IU since bobby choked that kid. thats not really true. I mean, no one thought of IU prior to that either. That event was perhaps only the second time since the 1970's that anyone thought of IU. I'm not sure what the other event was.

all this means is that the Packers will fight through adversity and win another SB. -
Good bc I wasn't sure what point you were making with the alumni count anyway. Well I didn't know what your point was before that! PS, I think Minny is drunk. It's after 11am here, so I'm sure he is. just drunk on looooove..
