I have no idea what Missouri's TV ratings are but there's a reason they're in the SEC and Kansas is trying to start rumors on Twitter hoping it leads to something.
How many MWC championships in a row will Kansas win?

Haha okay.
Rutgers, Colorado, Maryland, and Missouri move the needle so much in football. Their ratings are off the chart!
So many people watching college sports in New York and Washington DC.
Just watch what happens.
Hey I hope it works out for you. I got nothing against Kansas. But there's no good reason for the Big Ten to expand for Kansas. Maybe if they got Notre Dame and needed a 16th.
ACC? That's a little more possible even though it makes less sense geographically
Are you saying after all this we are back to pondering the OP's original question?
Kansas won't end up in the MWC. I honestly think the Big 12 will survive in the short term and it honestly won't impact Kansas basketball much. There are good enough opponents in the league and they can schedule big time programs OOC.
And even if the Big 12 doesn't survive this. The AAC or Big East are more likely.
It’ll make sense to you one day. I agree on the surface the ACC makes more sense and I would be more than happy with that.
The only team who suffers is Kansas in the ACC from geographic standpoint but again we make plenty of money. It’s not a big deal.
just keep basketball in the back of your mind.. read this article.
NCAA president Mark Emmert’s $3.5 billion mistake will define his failed tenure
Mark Emmert left billions on the table when negotiating the latest NCAA tournament TV deal, one described as 'one of the biggest mistakes in sports media in recent history.'

You won't have to worry about it. Some guy on twitter said the Big Ten invite is imminent. So in a week or two you'll be able to prove you were correct.
I will not because he did not say that. He thought it could be. He is going to be wrong. But someone took his words out of context.
I imagine you and others won’t read the article and likely wouldn’t gather what I am getting at even if you did read the article.
That guy needs to learn a thing or two about click bait. Never be specific, always vague!
If I were an Iowa fan, I sure as hell wouldn't want KU in my conference.
Im hoping kansas does find their way to the acc. Then espn will own rights to the football super conference (sec) and the basketball super conference (acc).
B1G can stick to their precious academics and not winning nattys.

We are talking about conference TV deals aren’t we? Wtf does the March Madness TV schedule have to do with Kansas joining a conference?
And if you’re going to extend college basketball’s schedule into the 3 games played in April why would you omit the 35-40 college bowl football games played in December and January? You look like an idiot doing stuff like that.
I just said I shouldn’t have included April. Genuinely amazed at the stupidity. Shouldn’t be shocked. My point is all about the networks controlling this.

What percentage of Dallas Fort Worth do you think are actually tuning in to TCU games?
The Big Ten got a shit ton of cash from Rutgers and Maryland joining simply because their presence in the league prompted cable companies to pick up BTN in the New York, DC and Baltimore markets. It doesn’t matter how many people care about those teams in their markets compared to Kansas City or wherever … ENOUGH do.
Doing less with more. Sounds about right.And being richer than y’all.
seriously tho, weird flex, what sports fan cares about how much NW or rutgers makes when they suck at every sport??? Or any school for that matter, i could care less how much $$$ the university of Louisville makes if every sports team is terrible, they arent my employer, i get nothin extra if they make more money than usual or lose more money or whatever.
Why do you want ESPN to own the rights?
ESPN wholly owns the SEC and ACC networks. The Longhorns managed to get at least partial ownership of LHN.
Big 10 owns like half of the Big 10 network. PAC 12 owns the PAC 12 network.
Yea i guess i should have phrased that better. Its not what i WANT more than anything, but it seems to be the most entertaining thing being thrown around imo.
If ESPN had rights to the big12 instead of fox, i highly doubt any of this ever happens but who knows.
Just kidding around, bro; you’re the one who started the conference shit talking. As a fan, I don’t like conference expansion one bit.
What’s crazy is the original big 12 was as good as any football conference as there was. It was better than the SEC not long ago.
Now the SEC is way better but the big 12 is easily the second best football conference (Including Colorado, Missouri, A&M and Nebraska). Ohio State stands up to anyone but overall the league isn’t as good.
wish they could have all worked it out. I loved that conference.

It still would be unless UT agreed to get rid of the LHN in favor of a Big 12 network. Which they would never do. For ESPN this is about getting rid of that awful LHN deal they lost hundreds of millions on and locking down content on networks they wholly own.
OU is in debt so they need more money which is why they want to go even though they are giving up conference titles.
UT can’t win the Big 12 anymore so might as well lose to Bama, UGA, LSU, Auburn, Florida, etc and get paid more money. Than getting beat by Kansas, Iowa St, TCU, Baylor, West Virginia, etc in football.
Yea me neither man, we were one of if not the last to get a seat at the big table last go around so i know what it feels like, and it sucks when ur in conference limbo.
I saw that. He said he bleeds purple during football season. KSU is a horrible school. Anybody with intelligence goes to KU for graduate school.
I was informed by a few posters on here that Kansas was this huge brand. That people separated sports. Kansas basketball was as important if not more important than Texas and OU.
Interesting turn of events. More importantly don’t know why Kansas all of sudden cares about other sports. Should have cared about them when you had the chance.
This doesn’t change much. You can be like Gonzaga. They don’t play in a tough conference.

Texas has been irrelevant for 12 years now. I’m sure it will improve in the SEC.
I’m pretty sure you were just informed that KU b-ball has done far more with less.
But hey...you may have a shot to occasionally finish higher than 3rd in your league now!
Sounds like losers. I'd love KU in the SEC, not only that, but in the North division so we can do home and homes'
Guys I've PM'd the guy from the future on Tik Tok, he claims Iowa goes 0fer - 4 vs KU and ISU in league play in 2024.
Why don’t you inform the board why Texas has consistently underperformed in the big 12 in both power sports. More talent than anyone. More money. How did you scrape together three big 12 titles in 26 yrs for your storied football program. UT basketball has like 29 fans attend games. If we had UTs football budget we could underperform just like Texas always does, but with more shame.
