Ok, get ready for something that is going to blow you away.
So you know how you keep hearing that Mizzou is excited to be going to the Texas Bowl because Houston is such a good recruiting pool for Mizzou.
BULL S#!7. This is just Pinkel wearing his positive panties.
The University is LIVID that they are being forced to go the WORST bowl game that the Big XII is affiliated with. In fact the Athletic Director's office is on the brink of calling it quits with the Big XII due to the fact Missouri gets no respect whatsoever in the conference.
Yes you read it correctly, calling it quits on the Big XII.
So where are they looking to go?
Brace yourselves -- it blew me away too when I heard this.
They are thinking about going to the Big10 conference and as early as next season.
Now you won't read this on mutigers.com or even hear it from the AD office, but this is what has been leaked to the coaches of the football team (Andy Hill is the nephew of a colleague) and this is not just some random rumor -- this is legit this time.
A little on the fence about how I feel about it, but to be honest, Missouri is right in the middle of the Big10 teams anyway so it would be a great fit.
Oh and who will fill Mizzou's spot in the Big XII -- TCU.
Yeah I know. Wow is what I said too when I first heard this tonight.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see how this all unfolds.
