UAB adds nothing...absolutely nothing

Pretty sure bama fans would absolutely flip their shite if this happended soo . . . there's your value right there

Nevertheless, I think the SEC goes for a Basketball power during the next round of expansion since Mizzou failed to do that one thing they were asked to do when they joined

As if UAB would be a threat to Bama? But yeah, adding UAB would be stupid because there shouldnt be 3 teams from the same state in one conference.

Further expansion won't be about football or basketball "powers"...it will be strictly market driven

The SEC already has the product, we don't need to improve that, not even in bball....what the SEC needs is more market penetration...more $$$$ per team.

When you eliminate all ACC schools and Big XII schools, you're left with East Carolina and Cincinnati...or some odd mix of New Mexico and Colorado State. Either that, or we wait out the Big XII land grant crap (5 years on that) and go after either OU and Okie State, or Kansas and K-State....neither which are sure bets to join...

Well damn. It's been one year. If we go by that timeline, what did Auburn do that was so high and mighty?
