I think adding two of the highest profile programs in the country is great for the conference as long as it does not dilute revenues. I have no fear that they will able to pull the same shenanigans in the SEC as they have in the past.
We moved to this conference because of it's rules and equal treatment and I trust that to continue. As an added bonus it would be cool to play our old conference mates.

I think Arkansas would be one of the biggest winners in this move. They’d get a huge rival back, more Texas exposure, and Bama would be out the west most likely.

I look forward to playing our old Big 8 Rivals and aTm again if it happens.

How about perspective from a fan of the school that’s played with them for over 100 years?

They would start cutting deals and holding closed door meetings, backstabbing anyone and everyone, and maneuvering to benefit themselves. They've single-handedly destroyed 2 conferences with their bullshite, and wouldn’t change their ways because they have new office space.

It will dilute revenue. Same revenue divided by 16 instead of 14

If they come, you can take that to the bank!

The yearly beat downs were not fun, but we didn’t leave because of rules or treatment. MU was always a higher member of the big 12 due to the old big 8 ties. OU and MU specifically stuck together pretty well in conference matters. MU left only because they had no choice after the Big 10 offer fell through. Once that happened the sec was the only move left as it looked like OU and Texas were headed to PAC at that time. Once OU decided to stay they did reach out to MU in private but the SEC deal was already done.
