LOL! Does this mean we can get out of our series with them at Jerryworld?

Seriously, I think it is well understood that the SECN includes a GoR for all the schools involved. This means that no one is going anywhere.

Don't have one. Notice that I said "understood." MrSEC has reported on this many times.

And do you really think the league would have been able to put a network together with ESPN without gathering the Third Tier rights for all 14 schools for some period of years? Think about it.

It could be a year-to-year GOR.

Could be, but I would tend to doubt that.

Why?

Only reason the ACC and Big 12 ran to a GOR was stability and bargaining power. The SEC has both without a GOR.

I would be VERY surprised if the SEC has a long-term GOR.

If going to the Big 12 is a good move for Arky cause it will take them 50yrs to win the SEC then with that logic they sure better take Arse to Mouth back with them

Arkansas State is already joining the Big Twatever, so maybe Arky can take their spot in the Sun Belt.





For as much shite as I give you Arky fans, you sure are a lot more fun to hang out with than the local Big Twatever guys.

Arkansas would immediately be the number 2 program in facilities and number 1 in fan support in the Big Twatever.

yeah, not to mention the 3 founding members that still haven't even been to an SECCG.

arkansas made it to the SECCG in year 4 in the SEC. 2 down, 2 to go, aggy. you're on the clock.

Jeff Long truly is a magic man because he has them currently 2nd in the SEC as far as revenue and fund raising goes.

He just can not pick a head football coach worth a dam. Not his fault really, I mean who would have thought a football coach whose philosophy does not fit since the last Sugar Bowl Arkansas was in would not fit in at Arkansas. Also missing on a championship caliber coach in their own back yard was another bonehead move. Arkansas should be back eventually but Bielema is not an answer and not a good enough coach to win in the SEC especially at Arkansas. Bielema could win at Auburn or Alabama but those schools have recruiting advantages not in place at Arkansas.

How can they "return" to a conference they have never been a part of?

Trade Arky for North Carolina and move Auburn to the West.

The SEC gets better at academics like a mojo and better at the big three at the same time. It's perfect.


No. No. No. I can't believe that this isn't bigger news, but here's prime example of UNC's sterling academic reputation.
