RE: "SEC sources say Mizzou to SEC a 'done deal' by end of day"... Lville to B12?

Yeah. I wish Mizzou would bolt already so B12 can add L'Ville, WVU, Cincy and get on with it.
Sounds like the Mizzou to SEC deal is going to happen if you read between these lines... but who knows.

Quote:If Missouri joins the Southeastern Conference, leaving the state without a Big 12 school, Gov. Jay Nixon doesn’t see why top college events have to leave Kansas City.
Spectacles like Border War football and the Big 12 basketball tournament have been part of the Kansas City sports fabric, and to Nixon that shouldn’t change if Mizzou finds a new conference home.
“The people of Kansas City are great sports fans,” Nixon said while taking in Sunday’s Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway to watch Columbia native drive Carl Edwards. “They support the races here, they’re getting baseball’s All-Star Game next year. That happens because of great fans and support.”
If Missouri changes conferences, Nixon said he would encourage major college sports events in Kansas City.
