Missouri's SEC campaign

Not sure why everyone is arguing about the KC market. The SEC already has the KC market. KC already has the SEC Network (started this year).

Meh, SEC network really isn't a conference network...it's just like...a tag ESPN uses to help show/pay for the lesser SEC games (I think...i actually don't know how to best present it, maybe someone else should)

:lol: Mizzou does not have the smallest Fanbase in K.C. I realize your a Jayhawk fan but lets be serious. Unless you are counting half of the state of kansas along as the K.C. Metropolitan then that is nowhere near accurate.

The largest part of the Mizzou fanbase, in the greater KC Metro area consists of the suburbs on the Missouri side. Most of the residents within KC who possess loyalties to one of the schools mentioned, possess loyalties to KU. The suburbs on the Kansas side (which are larger than those on the Missouri side) are mostly KU and then the rest is split between K-State and Nebraska (Missouri has a very small chunk of this).

This is my experience as someone who grew up in Kansas City and still returns frequently.

The state of Missouri, is very loyal to Mizzou (not split as Eastern Kansas v. Western Kansas to KU and KSU respectively); however, the major population center that is KC is not a large Missouri fanbase.

Not true. I know its wikipedia, but just scroll down and look at the population of the KC area counties.Kansas City metropolitan area - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Missouri and Kansas are about equally split when it comes to the KC metro area. You probably lived on the kansas side so most of your interactions would obviously be with ku and kstate fans. But to suggest that nebraska has a larger share of the whole KC market than mizzou is preposterous.

What happened to the big announcement? Missouri basically said the same thing today that it said in the big announcement a couple weeks ago.

I believe a few weeks ago they voted to explore their options and this past week they voted to invest the power to explore their options in the chancellor. Basically a few weeks ago they told the BigXII they wanted a divorce. Last week they hired the lawyer. If the follow A&M they will divorce the BigXII in a week or so and remarry a few weeks after that.

Jackson County is Kansas City, MO. I have already touched on the loyalties of Kansas City proper. Remove Jackson County and you are looking at at least a 150,000+ more individuals that live on the Kansas side of the Greater KC Metro Area.

I have lived on both sides and have family on both sides; on top of that, I do not have family that are alum of any of the schools mentioned. I simply have firsthand experience in and around Kansas City.

I will once again state that Nebraska does have a larger share of the whole KC market (as far as football is concerned, since NU fans care little to nothing about basketball) than does Mizzou.

From the SEC's standpoint, how much difference does it make? Do they broadcast Missouri games on TV there?

Did you mean to say jackson county is kc, kansas? Because if so then I think you're getting your jackson counties mixed up. There is a jackson county missouri and a jackson county kansas.There are two different counties with jackson county missouri being the much larger one. You would think a 30 year resident of the kc area would know that. The missouri side of kc is just as large, if not larger than the kansas side.

Jackson County, MO is KCMO. I have already addressed the affinities and loyalties in KCMO. Remove KCMO and the Dotte and the population on the Kansas side of the greater KC Metro Area is at least 150,000 persons larger than on the MO side.

Thanks for your attempted slight.

Mizzou sources are saying a withdrawal is tomorrow. Our Chancellor wanted to be able to address the withdrawal to the other schools in person. Not through email or a phone call.

Best of luck in the SEC :)olol:)

Time for the BigXII to bring on BYU, Louisville, or WVU (all three better options, in terms of quality programs, than Mizzou).

Why do you think those three schools are better options than Mizzou? From the SEC's POV, BYU is too far away to be looked at, but you're basically saying the SEC should add WVU or UofL instead of Mizzou.

Your argument for them couldn't be about TV markets added, recruiting areas added, stadium size, or academics, so what is it?

As a BigXII fan, I would rather have WVU and/or UofL than Mizzou.

Correct.

I'm convinced that you are just a mizzou hater. Louisville better program? Nah....

I am definitely a Mizzou hater; I'd rather go to hell than Mizzou. That said, historically, UofL has both a better basketball and better football program than Mizzou.
