Pig people go home to the Texas League. Apart from my selfish reasons, living here and seeing THE Bengal Tigers more often, Clemson is an SEC team. They are all about football and have built a beautiful stadium to prove it (and you can leave at the half to drink). They have a superior baseball tradition and they're basketball is competitive. They have 3 natural rivals within 2 hours (UT,Ga.,USCe) and it would creat the respect that is deserved for the CU/USCe game. Move Vandy to the west, TADA!

How cool would it be to make Clemson LSU's natural east rival and have the Death Valley battle every year (yeah I know LSU should be "Deaf Valley").

GT had their chance and the TV market in Atlanta doesn't wash. Like BC to the ACC, nobody's watching.

That's because it's like looking in a mirror for AU fans. Something about farm schools.

Somebody help me here. What is the case for a better university (realistic, the Texas schools aren't moving anywhere) to move into the conference.
We offered both FSU (turned it down and USCe got it) and Miami (played some Big East ball) and they took the chickenshit route.

As did Clemson. They were invited to join the SEC when we expanded in 1992, they declined, they will never be invited again. End of story. Learn your SEC history before you post again. Thank you.

NOLAtide! I know my history and FSU and Miami were offered and both declined. Living here I would have been well aware had The Clems been offered.

You're arrogant,condesending tone is what I would expect from you're ilk and why it is hard for other SEC fans to pull for their conference in January.

Even the ACC didn't really want VT and were forced into it by a threat to stonewall the process by the Va. Governor via UV.

Bama fans quit reading when you stated "clemson to the sec, make it happen". Plus all the other bull you posted about their newly constructed stadium, and baseball team, and basketball team. Be happy with the Almost Competitive Conference. You fit in good there. Why would the sec accept clemson when they can't even win their weak arse conference?

NO TEAM WILL LEAVE THE SEC.


There is something called a 1 billion dollar contract with ESPN. ARKANSAS will not leave for the big 12.


The dominoes were supposed to fall if the Big 10 asks Mizzou or Nebraska to join them. Hence the Big 12 would have to pull a team from somewhere. Arkansas has been floated about that SEC to big 12 move making room for Clemson.



It will not happen. I would love to have Clemson join the SEC, but again, no one in their right mind would leave the SEC to make room for Clemson.
