Than why do you think Mizzou was selected for the SEC?


Ignoring the fact that you can't compose a single sentence, I think it was chosen for the following combination of factors:
-Logical geographical footprint expansion for the SEC
-AAU/academic reputation
-Two sizable television markets, little in-state competition from other Universities
-Strong basketball program
-Growing football program
-Moderate athletic facilities
-30k+ students
-$1.2 billion endowment (fourth in SEC)
-More culturally similar than most other legitimate expansion options

I'm going to skip the above.

Didn't the Mizzou brass actually want to get into the Big 10 or was that just rumor?

Growing much more and faster as a result of joining the SEC. Mizzou just got sexier to recruits in the Midwest.

Another thing that will vastly improve as a result of joining the conference.

Couldn't be further from the truth. Now, you're just trying TOO hard.
