Big 12 interim commissioner Chuck Neinas told the Charleston Gazette that he's been assured West Virginia will be able to enter the Big 12 for the 2012 season, and he'll be releasing the league's schedule with West Virginia included by Feb. 1.
That date, by the way, is in six days.
Neinas left commenting on the Big East lawsuit, which seeks to force the Mountaineers to adhere to the 27-month notice required to leave the Big East, to West Virginia, but told the paper he received "continual assurances" that West Virginia would be able to get out in time.

Leadership! Passion!! Way to go Chuck!!! That's why you da man. That's why you were begged out of retirement to come back to help out the Big 12 a yr or two.
And yes i agree, in that Missouri was selfish in getting a little more money this first yr by immediately getting into their SEC schedule. I guess they really need the money. They got the worst foootball turf in the NCAA . They should be ashamed of themselves for that field as it was the culprit for many knee injuries this past yr especially for both Tech and UT! But they dont care. Just show em the money. Well I hope it works out for em in the short run but in the future I think they'll become a "doormat" in SEC football. What some people will do for money can be sad. Serves em right!
