I love when people say teams like FSU, Clemson or even a TCU. It shows me that they have NO CLUE what they are talking about on the subject of college sports management. Nothing.

What an idiot.
What are you, an accountant?
"...and if we add San Diego State we get the California footprint!"
Go back to your books.

No, a MBA. Always looking for new markets and new potential for revenue.

Of course. How are other Aggies supposed to know I am part of the cult without one? The secret knock is a pain in the arse to do.

Then you're on the wrong board.
People here discuss athletic endeavors. When we talk about what teams we would like to see our team play regularly, we don't really care about revenue as much as match ups on the field.
I'm sorry if you have no clue as to why someone would rather play FSU or Clemson on the reg over a team like Appy State, or Old Dominion.

well I started the thread and I say its for talking about adding schools in new states and not some wish list of schools in states the SECN is already in thus will never ever happen.
So you can kindly get out and find a different thread to cry in.

Lol. People here discuss thinly veiled dick waving. There is no higher purpose, no high road to walk. The intention of the board is to discuss SEC football, of which the revenue needed to support the 14 programs is a part of that.
What team plays who is COMPLETELY different than getting in a PARTNERSHIP with those programs. People can care about playing whoever they want to play. That is what OOC is for. Who is let into the SEC partnership is a much bigger thing.
I get your point: this is a jock forum so us business nerds can take our sport ruining beans and go count them somewhere else. What I think is funny about that is the fact that if the SEC made poor expansion decisions, and was the worst paid Power 5 conference because of those decisions (that was a possibility prior to expansion), the same people who want FSU would be pissed when their recruits go to tOSU because SEC facilities are behind everyone else. If you care about your program being worth a damn you care about the money.
College football is no longer a bunch of regional vacuums, it is a national sport with a major following worth billions of dollars. The cost of putting the wishes of football nerds first isn't insignificant, and therefore any TRUE SEC fan would want what option is best for the league and that isn't FSU, Clemson, or any program already in the SEC footprint.

That would be my wish. Adds to basketball, and baseball. Plus that would bring the SEC even closer to sponsoring soccer. How many teams do you need? 5 or 6?

Well, yeah.
And it's generous of you to offer any veil at all.

And thus why I find college football less and less interesting.
Yes, I know, it's ALL about the money. that's why actually going to games anymore just flat out sucks. Sitting in the stands waiting for the little guy in the red hat to tell the people actually playing the fricking game when they can start playing the fricking game is just absurd.
I understand that the little guy in the red hat represents money, but he also represents a total disruption of the flow of the game. I don't go to games to wait for opportunities for companies to make money, I go to watch kids play ball for the Old War Skule.
In short, commercial breaks are ruining the enjoyment of the sport.
When everything is about money, there is nothing left but money. That is a sad world indeed.

honestly, the only time the man in the red hat sucks the joy out of the game is when its on CBS.

Nope, just four.. For example, equestrian used to be a non-SEC sport. Added A&M to the conf and the following year it became an SEC sport.
SC, UGA, Auburn and A&M sponsor equestrian FYI..
And if UVA and UNC joined the conf then Men's soccer would for sure be the next SEC sport because you would have four schools that already sponsor it, with plenty that'll join.. If title IX doesn't get in the way of adding more men's sports.
SC and Kentucky currently play soccer in the AAC I believe.
With that being said, there's no way we get UNC and UVA..
