Big 12 pledges unity, but Missouri is still flirting with the SEC

The Big 12 only knows dysfunction, so it shouldn’t surprise anyone that Thursday night’s call for unity ended in more uncertainty. This time, the University of Missouri is making sexy eyes at a news conference.
At least that’s the take-away from The Kansas City Star. An unnamed university administrator told the Star Thursday night that Mizzou is “very open to” joining another conference, namely the SEC. This came after MU chancellor Brady Deaton and athletics director Mike Alden refused to define Missouri’s commitment to the Big 12.
