Hello Celebritys

Monday afternoon Sports Radio 810 WHB in Kansas City posted an article citing “multiple sources” that the Big Ten has made initial offers to Missouri and Nebraska to join the conference. Most everyone thought a conference shakeup was coming to college football and it looks like the first steps have been taken.

I have seen multiple news outlets report on the article from Sports Radio 810 but have yet to see any media outlet confirm the report.

The Big Ten Conference has extended initial offers to join the league to four universities including Missouri and Nebraska from the Big 12, according to multiple sources close to the negotiations.

While nothing can be approved until the Big Ten presidents and chancellors meet the first week of June in Chicago, the league has informed the two Big 12 schools, Notre Dame and Rutgers that it would like to have them join.

KansasCity.com has a article up from Monday afternoon with quotes from Missouri and Nebraska officials denying all reports.

An Internet report Monday said the Big Ten has extended initial offers to four schools, including Missouri and Nebraska, to join the conference. But a source long involved in Missouri athletics told The Star that the Big Ten has made no such offer.

“There’s nothing there at all,” said the source, who said he had spoken with MU athletic director Mike Alden on Monday. “Not yet. … nothing has changed.”

Nebraska chancellor Harvey Perlman replied "none whatsoever" when asked by the Lincoln Journal-Star whether the report had any validity concerning his school.

It is going to be interesting to see how this all plays out. It is like a game on musical chairs and the music just stopped so everyone is scrambling for their seat.

As a TCU supporter, I hope the administration is being proactive and is looking for possibilities if there is a major shakeup with the conferences. The Frogs have been left out once and I don’t want to see it happen again.
