(I'm just messing with you Oz.)
After Bradley and Northern Iowa, the Jayhawks want nothing to do with the Valley ... nothing! Anywhere but the Valley!
Actually, KU, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa State and Washington University in St. Louis were founding members in 1907 of the Valley before turning into the Big 8 and Big 12. The Jayhawks share a lot of history with Nebraska, and it's going to be a sad day Friday, because that will be it, but it's inevitable. No way can these schools spend another year together, let alone 10 minutes.
As Stewart Mandel at SI.com put it, with what's about to happen, "Kansas becomes a LeBron-like free agent." Should be an interest summer filled with rumors, back-room meetings and uncertainty.
