100 percent these negotiations are happenning because obviously the Big12 is going to want to know as part of their side of negotiations and they've said they want new schools in place asap.  This isn't news at all.

Very much not true. Before realignment ceases forever (which in itself sounds like a foolish statement), the P5 has to drop some dead weight. The never were's and never-will-be's. Purdue. Iowa State. Vandy. Kansas. Washington State. Illinois. Maybe N.C. State. Virginia. When they get the boot, that's when realignment will be winding down, if not over.

Of all those schools, Kansas is guaranteed to land somewhere on their feet. Their basketball alone carries enough weight to land them somewhere safe.

Ugh I wish all this would just get settled.

Yeah exactly. Their football team is terrible, but hasn't always been by any means. But their basketball team is very good. That's when basketball will keep you in a p5.

Same here, time to move on and play some ball.

USF would look good in the ACC, IMO. Good rivalry with FSU and UM. Plus a history of beating North Carolina. I am all for it.

Saying a decision 'may take until December' basically gives no information at all, because it acknowledges that it could be before or after that, or also never at all

Hopefully the longer they take the better shot we have. We need to pack our house for home games

Never going to happen. The only possible scenario is the Big 12 gets raided and Iowa State is left in the cold. Big 10, SEC, ACC, PAC 12 aren't going anywhere and they're not kicking schools out either. Kansas will never have to worry about finding a landing spot on basketball alone.
