I would have never thought in a million years or in my lifetime that the NCAA MAJOR Conferences like the BIG 12 and the BIG EAST would be disbanded and the SCHOOLS in that Conference left to fen for themselves.

Well it's 2011 and the SNOWBALL or DOMINO Effect is in FULL FORCE in the BIG 12. Just a couple of months ago the TEXAS A&M University , College Station, TEXAS a member of the BIG 12......applied to go into the Southeastern Conference known as the SEC. Oklahoma and Texas Tech were to block that move and NOW it looks like not only is A&M leaving but the whole Conference is scrambling to get to another Major CONFERENCE.

Take for instance......the NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS were way ahead of the curve as they are already a proud member of the New BIG 10.....with 2 separate Conferences called the LEADERS and the LEGENDS Divisions. I have to give it to BIG RED in LINCOLN.....they out foxed the FOX on this one.

Some of the BIG EAST SCHOOLS are looking to leave its Conference and join the ACC a of Today as well. And the way its looking there will be a lot of SCHOOLS out there looking for a STABLE Place to land their University. Its madness out there and when will it end because these kinds of things impact everything from Educationbal Programs all the way down to Recruiting in the ATHLETIC Departments of these Universities.

Here is the latest movement in the BIG 12 and the BIG East for the fact of the MATTER:

As of today reports are that Hookem' HORNS in AUSTIN, BOOMER SOONER in NORMAN, them COWBOYS in STILLWATER, and the RED RAIDERS of LUBBOCK and TExas TECH will all be applying for MEMBERSHIP in the PAC-12. That is a HUGE upgrade in all 3 Sports for the PAC-12......FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, and BASEBALL.

Which also means in the BIG 12 you leave NATIONAL BAsketball POWERHOUSE ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK with no CONFERENCE.......trust me the WHOLE College Basketball World will be going after KU LAWRENCE to join their Conference like they are the Consensus Top Rated Recruit in the US.

Another Question......What would the TEXAS LONGHORNS do with the LONGHORN NETWORK that they collect 100% of the REVENUE from?......If UT AUSTIN goes to the PAC-12......that Conference will have to work out something probably in the LONGHORNS Favor.

Then you have the BIG EAST....who made HUGE NEWS just this pat FRIDAY NIGHT. The ACC has accepted the University of PITTSBURGH and SYRACUSE University to the ACC. That is a HUGE BASKETBALL Coup for the ACC as they will move into 14 teams from 12 teams.

The BIGGER Picture is that the OTHER Schools in the BIG EAST like 2011 NATINAL BASKETBALL Champion UCONN.......What in STORRS CONNECTICUT will they do. And the CARDINALS of LOUISVILLE with that new STATE-of-the-ART KFC YUM Center. Then there is the JOHNNIES of ST. JOHN's....the HOYAS of GEORGETOWN.......what me to keep going?

Then after the SMOKE clears.......the BIG EAST Basketball TOURNEY in MSG....is in JEOPARDY.....and that my friends is a staple of the COLLEGE BASKETBALL World.

Just as the SYSTEM of Big-Time COLLEGE AThletics is in disarray.......now they create this mess........UNBELIEVABLE. Let's take a look at what both the 14 Team ACC and the 16-Team PAC-12 would look like at a GLANCE:

ACC

VIRGINIA WAHOOS
Virginia TECH BLACKSBURG
MARYLAND Fightin' TURTLES
North CAROLINA HEELS
North CAROLINA STATE PACK
DUKE DURHAM NC
CLEMSON Death VALLEY ORANGE
Georgia TECH Rambling WRECK
MIAMI 'CANES
BOSTON COLLEGE Chestnut HILL
Florida STATE 'NOLES
Wake FOREST DEMON DEACONS

SYRACUSE ORANGEMAN yeah I said ORANGEMAN
PITT PANTHERS

PAC-12

UCLA WESTWOOD
USC MEN of TROY
STANFORD RED
CAL BERKELEY BEARS
OREGON EUGENE
OREGON STATE CORVALLIS
WASHINGTON U DUB
WASHINGTON STATE PULLMAN
ARIZONA Desert SWARM
ARIZONA STATE TEMPE
U of U Salt Lake City UTAH
COLORADO BOULDER

OKLAHOMA Boomer SOONER
OKLAHOMA STATE STILLWATER 'BOYS
UT AUSTIN
TEXAS TECH LUBBOCK


Clearly you see the ACC is upgraded into a SUPER BASKETBALL league that will only lead to getting even more of the TOP Round Ball Recruits.

The PAC-12 moves into a SUPER FOOTBALL CONFERENCE adding the likes of UT Austin, OU NORMAN, OK STATE STILLWATER, and Texas TECH Lubbock.

We will watch to see how this all plays out ......an I want to see the OTHER POWER Schools and see where they are going as well. The BIG EAST has a TON to lose and their BASKETBALL league is TOP 2 with the ACC now.

NOTE: the OUT CLAUSE to leave any Conference is the BIGGEST in the ACC.....it was a reported $14 Million to leave and now the ACC is reportedly raising it to $20 Million.
