Missouri used their success in football and their upswing in basketball to move to the SEC.
Both had their chances to raise the status of their programs, but only one took advantage of it.

This is exactly right. It's only amplified by the fact that KU had Jim Harbaugh, I mean he WAS the next coach, a move that would have put KU on another level as a program and Lew Perkins halted it. I'm not a sweet Lew fan.
