Other than A & M, the other teams want to negotiate. Mizzouwas turned down by the Big 10 and ignored by the SEC in the last round, so we know they are feeling insecure and will jump at the opportunity rather than be left out.

Here's why we want them. Solid programs. Two big media markets and at least one small one (bigger than Jackson). Good school.

If A & M pulls the trigger, we will want to pair them with somebody. Mizzou is the easy fit. (Also, the commish is lazy.)

Texas A&M's would be LSU.

But I think Missouri would be a good fit. What would be next? Add Oklahoma & Oklahoma State and move Alabama and Auburn to the SEC East?

That actually does sound pretty good. Although I don't think the SEC wants to add two more schools from the same state, that still sounds pretty good especially considering that OU wanted OSU to come with them before. I'm not really against bringing OSU along so that sounds quite alright to me. It'd be kind of odd seeing UA and AU over in the East though.<div>
</div><div>If that were to happen, the death of the BigXII is a done deal. It would be interesting to see where the rest of the schools would migrate to. I wouldn't be too surprised to see Baylor and maybe 1 other jump to C-USA and the B1G go after KU and/or KSU. Maybe TTU goes to the Pac-1(6) and Texas goes independent?</div>

we will pick up two more East. I think we already said no to Okie State. My guess would be Clemson and Florida State, but who knows how this will shake out. I guess if it is all about TV market then we could continue to expand into the West, but I would hate that. Love the TAMU idea, less enthused about Mizzou. Would not be at all excited about OK and OK St. Just don't see the need to go further West.
