Doing away with the divisions in the Big 12?
That's what Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops says yes to, according to an Associated Press story printed in the Colorado Daily.
"It would probably be great, throwing out the Big 12 championship game and play everybody like the Big Ten does, or the Pac-10, play an extrea conference game and get away from the divisional mix," Stoops said.
So was that just an honest answer or was it motivated by selfish interests?
You be the judge. You get to do that here.
The question to ask is why would Stoops want to change the status quo when coaches hate change?
Answer?
Stoops likely doesn't want another big game to prepare for at the end of the season that could get in the way, be an obstacle to a high-profile bowl game and payout, and maybe a contract bonus that would be the result.
The divisional format is interesting, it is good for the conference and there will be years, trust me, where the North will rise up and beat down the South in the championship game.
Snyder goes Crowder for Kansas State
Retired Wildcats' coach Bill Snyder thought his replacement, Ron Prince, needed some encouragment and support so he wrote a letter meant to be distributed to the public.
Now it seems the local media covering the program is questioning Snyder's action, as if there is some big undercurrent to it. Could Snyder miss the spotlight too much, was his gesture selfish in nature, blah, blah, blah.
If I'm Prince, and a legend wants to share with others to be patient with me, I accept it any minute, hour or day of the week. For the media to be offended is selfish of them. It was not intended for them and personally speaking, they should shut their pie holes.
Advice I'm sure I'll receive one day soon.
Or do, daily, from my ex-wife.
Point is, Snyder was well-intentioned and his letter caused no harm so why the panic in the Kansas media or Prince.
Some people, um, not talking about me, a little to self important, don't you think?
