Missouri governor pushes Big Ten move

By Chuck Carlton / Reporter

Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon just gave a little more momentum to the Missouri-to-the-Big-Ten rumors.

In an interview with the Associated Press, Nixon, a Missouri grad, endorsed the move and offered some interesting opinions of current Big 12 member institutions.

"I'm not going to say anything bad about the Big 12, but when you compare Oklahoma State to Northwestern, when you compare Texas Tech to Wisconsin, I mean, you begin looking at educational possibilities that are worth looking at," Nixon told the AP.

"If a significant conference with a long history of academic and athletic excellence talks about you joining them, you shouldn't just say, 'We're from the old Big 8 and I remember when ... If they want to talk, we should talk, and we should listen."
AWESOME!

Now we're imparting vicarious liability from the Governor onto the University?!?!? I'm not even going to go into the ways that would be legally impossible in this instance, but trust me - it is.

Jesus Christ, please stop. I'm begging you, just stop. You clearly have no earthly idea what you're talking about. Again - we don't have to wait and see, we can affirmatively state right now that you have no goddamn clue what you're talking about.
