(AP) Interim Big 12 Commissioner Chuck Neinas says he is confident Missouri will stay in the Big 12.
Missouri is the latest Big 12 school in the spotlight, considering whether to stay in the conference or move to another league.
It has been reported that Missouri was eyeing a move to the Southeastern Conference when it looked as if Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech could be heading to the Pac-12.
The Big 12 has already lost Texas A&M to the SEC.
Last week, Oklahoma President David Boren said all nine remaining schools had agreed to grant their top-tier television rights to the conference for six years
Missouri Chancellor Brady Deaton wouldn’t go that far, saying members would pursue that deal.
