Desire: aTm's dream was to join the SEC. Missouri is here because the Big Ten (their more natural fit) turned them down
Not entirely true.
Missouri was offered partial membership (like Nebraska). Basically Missouri wouldn't have been a full member of the Big Ten for a few years.
Missouri's administrators went into re-alignment with the mindset of becoming an immediate full member of a conference whether it be the SEC or Big Ten.
Missouri rejected the crap deal that Nebraska accepted.
