The school is also seeking to improve its tennis and golf facilities as well as its softball and baseball stadiums. The projects would cost $72 million in 30-year debt financing through revenue bonds, although a plan summary suggests Missouri would recoup its entire investment through the sale of additional premium seats and luxury boxes

And this is what we need:

Immediately after the Tuesday curators' session, Alden plans to announce what's described as ''major private gift'' to Missouri athletics. He has consistently spoken of the need for donors to ''step up'' from the moment Missouri's move to the SEC from the Big 12 Conference was announced in November 2011.

And they would be picky, too. Mizzou immensely values its academic reputation and wouldn't join a conference that would compromise the perception of that.
 
guys I am starting to hear rumors that Mizzou might leave the Big 12. You heard it here first.
 
I heard a rumor that if Mizzou leaves CU was the Big12 #1 target to replace them. Possibly offering CU it's own TV network similar to the Longwhore network.
 
mizzou is a lock to the Big Ten according to tigerboard.com.

anyhoo, they are a natural fit in the SEC....winning all those championships they did in the Big 8/XII.
