Seems pundits believe that KU will go to a good conference because of basketball.
We will go to a lesser one because of basketball

It’s hard to believe we are 2 years removed from a Big12 championship in basketball. I think if I was the commissioner of a conference I would look at a larger sample size, at least 25 years. But right now it’s so crazy it’s hard to know what any of these conferences are thinking (other than $$$)

It's definitely not going to help I'm sure.

I don’t believe any success or failure by the basketball team is going to play any part in that decision. This is purely driven by football.

If it’s only about football why is KU even in the same sentence as the Big 10?

Yep, every BigTen school is or was an AAU member. It's why so many Mizzou fans thought they were a shoe-in for a BigTen invite the 1st conference realignment. Also Kansas went asking the BigTen for an invite they haven't received one as of yet.

As long as we are undefeated on the “play hard” chart. We will be fine
