Haven't heard a word.
Obviously, any time those kind of schools are involved, I hold my breath. My irrational homerism now: I don't get the love affair with Oregon. They weren't relevant before what? 2000's? They did win the Pac whatever but beyond that what have they won? They did make it to the national championship game once and lost. Mizzou has twice come down to conference championship games which had they won would have been playing for national championships. Having said that, there is no doubt they are good, but why they have the perception of being world beaters whereas a Missouri team that has been almost as good over that same period of time doesn't even get ranked is beyond me. Rant on Oregon over.
As for Beckner, despite holding my breath with teams like that, I have always heard comments out of his camp of wanting to play in the SEC. Teams like LSU, Bama and even OM with their history of recruiting make me more nervous. Staying somewhat close to home certainly was something his camp discussed and hopefully they meant it. That would take out the FSU and Oregon's of the world.
