Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 439747, member: 628"] Yep, you have to evaluate things on a case by case basis. Its hard to argue that Colorado, Utah, TCU, Nebraska and Louisville haven't made extremely beneficial moves for the long-term. They are now in conferences that are within an appropriate geographic footprint and have elevated the resources of their athletic departments. The proverbial win-win. There is more debate to be had regarding Mizzou, Texas A&M, Syracuse and Pitt. All gave up long-standing rivalries and a certain amount of geographic fit. Although in the case of the latter two, we're re-uniting with four former conference mates and aligning with new schools that are substantially more in-tune with our athletic mission than most of the schools we're leaving behind. I'll give you that aTm was suffering from a hellacious case of little brother syndrome and Mizzou was just a desperate whore. [/QUOTE]
