The longer this drags on, the more I'm thinking that Missouri is still holding out hope that Notre Dame is forced to join a conference, and Missouri hopes it will be the Big 10, and that they can tag along as the final team.

Missouri dragging this out like they are definitely reinforces the idea that they are not that crazy about the division set ups being offered in the SEC, or perhaps even playing against these schools in the first place.

They have shot their mouth off way too much in public compared to other schools, practically begging the Big 10 for acceptance when the last round wound up with Nebraska changing conferences.

The longer this drags on, the more I get worried that Missouri decides to stay in the Big 12, and that they decide that WVU and Louisville (or BYU) won't get them enough additional money to want to reopen the sweetheart (0verpriced) deal that they currently have for 10 teams from ESPN.  ESPN gave them that deal to avoid blowing up the Big 12, and the Big 12 doesn't want to tip over that apple cart, because they won't get that much money on the open market, with Texas having its own network to deal with.
