So since I'm hearing reports that the SEC is interested in A&M, nothing screams SOUTHEAST like College Station, Texas, shouldn't KSU consider being proactive and start looking for a new home? Just a thought!

The Big East already pre-approved KSU, KU, MU and ISU for full membership last year. I would assume that KU, KSU, and MU would be the 3 they would want beings they picked up TCU. We jus need to pick up the phone and make sure we still have a spot.

Honestly hope that this administration is being more proactive to shop our school around, especially after the overall great year of sports we had in 2010/2011. Dont want to rely on KU ever again to get us into the big east.

Can you imagine the hoops if we all joined the Big East.  In football, no question it would help us, in basketball... OMG.. everyone would get beat up that much more.

The Big East would excite me, especially in basketball, but tonight's Manhattan Mercury raises the possibility of BYU to make us a 10 team league again if A&M leaves but does NOT bring up the possibility of trying to go back to 12.

names being floated are Houston, Louisville, Air Force, and BYU. Also mentioned trying to lure in ND and Arkansas, but knowing it probably wouldn't happen.

Would love to play the AFA. I'd be ok with playing them in Colo Springs every year. Amazing campus.

It's a favored vacation spot of mine so I'd be ok with that. I just don't want our S.O.S. to take a hit.

True. Out OOC has always hurt the SOS but the conf games saved us. Howevef the past 5 years the AFA has done ok in Basketball and prety damn good in Football.

Is this true?  I still struggle to see how the Big East is a bad thing for KSU.  Our biggest competition would be TCU in a Big East-Western Division & we can continue to recruit out of the KS JC ranks, which is some of the best in the country.  The only market that KSU wouldn't be seen in would be Houston, and we get exposure all over the east coast and Florida (USF).  The Big East gets to have a football championship and could start their own network using basketball as the focal point-let's face it KU is coming along as well.  If they could poach Duke and NC for basketball from the ACC, this could be a cash cow for the entire school year...

THIS. What a perfect out come this would be for us. I pray that our admins are seriously shopping us around real time right now.  Not only would our Football be more competitive , but along with Big East Basketball we would constantly be on the East Coast televisions, which would help a TON recruiting out of New York and Florida.
