Tuesday was an extremely interesting day on the realignment front,nntpd, as a couple of items bubbling under the surface were thrust into the news.Tulsa's long-reported move to the Big East became a national story when a source told ESPN the league's presidents are about to vote to approve an invitation for the Hurricane.(You can read ESPN's story and TU's response .)Although Tulsa's courtship with the Big East has been well documented (you can read Bill Haisten's story on the topic from January ) Tuesday's ESPN report is good news for Hurricane fans.Beyond predicting an impending resolution, the report may put to rest the persistent chatter that some Big East schools were pressing for Massachusetts instead of Tulsa.As we've said numerous times, the Big East -- whatever name it will take next season -- is the best of numerous bad choices for the Tulsa athletic department. Here's hoping the final decision comes quickly so the Hurricane can move forward.Speaking of moving forward, Oral Roberts officials confirmed for the first time Tuesday the school would be interested in joining the Missouri Valley Conference.(You can read Jimmie Tramel's story ).Our friend Dave Sittler has been beating the drum for this move since Creighton accepted a spot in the new Big East basketball conference,www.nuism.com, and it's certainly intriguing.Oral Roberts' interest would indicate two things: the school has no thought of starting football anytime soon (if ever),hempz, and it feels like it can spend the money necessary to compete in the Missouri Valley.According to Oral Roberts' 2011 990 tax form,hogan, men's basketball coach Scott Sutton made nearly $500,ghd,000. That would be competitive among coaches in the Valley. But at least two schools -- Creighton and Wichita State -- reportedly pay their men's basketball coaches more than $1 million per year.Lamar, which won the Southland Conference Tournament in 2012,xlxtc, pays Pat Knight about $150,longchamp pas cher,000 per season.The moral to the story: if you move from the Southland to the Missouri Valley, the cost of coaching -- and just about everything else -- goes up.I haven't seen anything that would indicate the Valley's level of interest in Oral Roberts,longchamps, but it's easy to see why the Golden Eagles would be interested.Tulsa was a member of the Valley into the mid 1990s, so there is a familiarity with the league's schools in town.And unlike the move to the SLC,www.emahs.com, which was good geographically but at best a sideways move athletically,emahs, going to the Missouri Valley would indicate ORU was serious about its athletic programs.In the last 10 years. the Valley is one of the most respected mid-major basketball conferences in the country. This season the league was ranked 16 spots ahead of the Southland in the RPI -- and two spots ahead of Conference USA.A move to the Missouri Valley could change the dynamic of college athletics in the city. For at least five months out of the year (the last three months of basketball season and baseball season),true religion outlet Online jeans and jeans Sale., an ORU in the Valley could rightfully claim to be on even -- if not higher -- ground than Tulsa.That would seriously juice the rivalry between the two schools.So jot down the date,true religion Outlet, March 26,http://www.emahs.com/, 2013. It could turn out to be an extremely historic one for college sports in Tulsa.
