[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1487520, member: 26283"] I think more to the point, if the Big 10 had any interest in Missouri, why didn't they just scoop them up when they were ripe for the plucking in 2011 or 2012? If the Big 10 were to expand again (and I think that's a really big "if" for the foreseeable future), I think their eyes are firmly to the south and east. Assuming SEC schools like Vandy and Florida are forever out of reach, some combination of Virginia, UNC, Duke and Georgia Tech would be the targets. Big research oriented schools near big, growing metro areas in big, growing states. [/QUOTE]
