Nobody will be left after Boise, UCF, SMU, Houston and TCU leave.

The premiere program in the Mount U.S. conference would be what? Tulsa? ECU? Air Force? Southern Miss? They won't be receiving any BCS bids any time soon.

Not sure where to put this.
With Missouri joining the sec, rumors are they are getting new jerseys.
Please be joking.

The black ones are the best of the bunch but that isn't saying much and those helmets...my god...did the machine throw up on them or what?

Yeah, I'm assuming those are fakes.
However, if real and they go with that *** airbrushed tiger look I am going to never let up on my Mizzou friends.

The tiger print jerseys are the gayest things I've ever seen. RuPaul wouldn't be caught wearing something that feminine.

They actually matchup well with the 80's style airbrushed tiger eye at Tiger Stadium.

That has to be fake as ****. If they are serious, I expect a Mizzou alum to burn down Nike's HQ.

The Big 12 is meeting today to discuss realignment again. Louisville seems to top the list of potential candidates according to CBS' Brett McMurphy

Memphis is likely headed to the Big East in 2013. Absolutely terrible in football but Big East cares more about Basketball anyways.

If nova wasn't such a biotch, Temple would be in the big east by now.

I have a feeling this is a preemptive move by the Big East to bolster the ranks before Louisville bolts for the Big 12. When they do I think Temple will be the first team contacted. If not Temple then the Big East is left with inviting Southern Miss, Tulsa, Tulane, Rice, ECU, or Marshall (?) for all sports. All of those are choices if Air Force doesn't want to join, which would be for football only anyway.

'Nova doesn't care if Temple's in the Big East, they just want in on football if Temple joins. And to be fair, 'Nova's athletic programs would probably completely fall apart if Temple was in a bigger conference for all sports. Kills almost all recruiting edges in basketball and obviously football's driving everything anyway.

If Temple wasn't a doormat year after year they would have stayed in the Big East. Villanova doesn't have the power by themselves to keep Temple out.

No they don't, but the Catholic schools do as a whole, those guys stick together since they are all basketball powers and don't give a **** about football. Derza is right that Nova doesn't care as long as they get to move up in Big East for football. Being in 2 big sports with a big TV contract is a lot of money, compared to 1. And if they are stuck at 1, while another school in the same city has both sports and is racking in the dough it would harm their program. I see Nova's point of looking out for yourself, I don't completely hate them. Reason I want Temple in Big East is for the $$$.
We were a door mate that is true and our former president didn't give a **** about sports and wanted to cut them. Its not like at that time we weren't the only door mat in the big east, lets not forget RU as well. We had a president who didn't care, but that is before my time so can't speak more than I hear from the old timers. Things are changing, sure we still can't beat PSU, but we have beat other "BSC" level opponents to at least garner some attention.

Rumor has it Temple will be joining the Big East as an all sports member soon.
