Didn't Orangebloods report the same info as Thamel, Mizzou most likely to SEC soon, citing three different sources? At least I thought I read that.

Not sure. I did see that posted here (that Chip Brown was reporting the same).

ETA: I also agree it is only a matter of time. It is just that some, like Thamel, have no real sources and run with stories without vetting them properly.

Missouri curators are meeting late tomorrow afternoon in KC in a closed door meeting.

COLUMBIA | Missouri’s Board of Curators on Monday released an agenda calling for a closed executive session for 3:45 p.m. Thursday in Kansas City.

That closed session — if it mirrors a similar one held by the curators on Oct. 4 in St. Louis — could produce the next public step in the process of whether Missouri remains a member of the Big 12 or moves further toward joining the Southeastern Conference.

A story released early Monday evening by The New York Times quoted an unidentified college official with direct knowledge of the situation as saying Missouri’s application to the SEC was “inevitable and imminent,” though the source did not provide a timeline for that.

For nearly a month, The Star has reported a shared interest from Mizzou and the Southeastern Conference. Recently that interest has been publicly acknowledged by interim Big 12 commissioner Chuck Neinas.
