"I will not coach at Alabama."
-Alabama head coach Nick Saban.
I have no clue what the SEC will do, but put little stock into most of these press releases.

Interesting. To me, Mizzou is a no-brainer and a great fit for the SEC

SEC is downplaying/denying it just as they did when the A&M story broke last month. Not sure why they deny like this. Why take this road?
"We have no intentions to expand at this time but we will keep our options open."
Blah, blah blah SEC.
they want us, we want them. The St. Louis / KC market willl be great.
Follow the yellow brick road.....and pay LOTS of attention to Mr. slive behind the curtain..

I agree and think the offer will happen once the big 12 implodes. I think I saw where the big 10 gets .40 per household in their contract. That puts the difference between mizzou and WVU (2 mill tops) astronomical. I think we stay at 14 for a while and hold some spots open incase a no brainer comes up.

Can we make them change their mascot? We all ready have two "Tigers". Maybe they could switch to something cool like "Bulldogs"

They didn't say they wouldn't, just that they haven't. Both the SEC and Missouri may be waiting to see whether Texas is willing to give up their network. If I were Missoui, I would wait for that as well.
