re: Opinion wanted on expansion

I wouldn't say they are more trouble than they are worth, but there is no reason to add another Texas team, just like there is no reason to add another Florida team or another South Carolina team. Expansion is about expanding your footprint so you can make more money on your schools network. Texas doesn't help in that regard.

That said Texas is one of the few big fish out there that could be gotten, so I think you have to at least look at it from a national perspective. Living in Austin I don't think they are a fit in the SEC the way way A&M is at all.

I don't buy the whole "they will ruin the SEC" talk as this would be a whole different animal and Texas simply would not be in the position to behave in the SEC the way they have in the past.
