Why does the SEC keep Vandy?

IMO, they bring nothing athletically save the occasional competitive basketball team and good gpa's. However, every year they still get their 1/12th of the SEC bowl pie. Doesn't really seem fair...they don't contribute shite...almost like they're on SEC welfare.
I think the SEC would be better served getting rid of vandy and getting someone who would be more competitive (GT, Clemson, FL State (they might come now that Bobby B is gone), even Louisville).
Thoughts?

This questions pops up every so often. I think it is the most ignorant question that gets asked. So I would like to know why you are asking it? Do you not understand the benefits the rest of SEC teams get by having a Vandy on their schedule??? Would it be better to have say a Texas??? Also Vandy's academics bring a lot to the SEC. Do you not understand this?

Vanderbilt has the largest endowment in the SEC, and it's not even close. They are one of the top academic institutions in the country.

Beaue Vanderbilt never quit and ran like Ga Tech and Tulane. They deserve our loyalty for hanging in there. If Vandy played in the ACC, or for that matter the Big Ten they would have more success but they stick it out and play strong year after year.
And what part of No fricking Way don't people understand when it comes to Clemson, Florida State, Miami and Texas A&M? All of those schools could have joined the SEC but they took the easy road. We will never share our success with them. Get over it.

Taking Vandy away from the SEC is ludicrios. Just because they are not a powerhouse dosen't mean they are not apart of what makes the ACC great.

Without Vandy grads, who will read to you?

Vandy has been better in two of the three major sports than most of the SEC, including Bama. Football is big but not the only sport.
