I'm glad Arkansas is in the SEC as well. If we ever added a team, I'd be in favor of Florida State.

They are part of the growing parity in the SEC, it makes the conference that much stronger IMO.

Tough to say they bring a lot to the SEC, but they did win the '94 NCAA tourney. South Carolina won the baseball title this year. It's the Mississippi's I'm juvious of.

Programs you'd like to see in the SEC over Arkansas?
It's common knowledge that Arky has never won the SEC in its nearly 20 years in the conference, nor has it ever reached a BCS game. Which programs do you think would perform better?
Probably some team that's much easier to beat. Don't blame you.

Yeah, I know. I don't see any Texas schools joining the SEC and I know Florida is big a big enough state to support 2 SEC schools. I'd love FSU in the west playing LSU every year in football.

Neither has Vandy.
Vandy is a founding member so they are "made" men. Arky should still be in their probation period and being considered for termination. Thats what I pray for at night anyway

Should be a rolling evaluation, IMO.

Thats a lot of titles you are asking another school to replace.
More so, that is a lot of money into the SEC you are losing if you would like us out.
I will chalk this thread up to you just being an idiot though.

Rather have A & M or Texas.
Bigger market, better academics.
Arky does have a pretty solid past athletically. And you've brought decency to SEC track and field. And the '94 NCAA tourney championship. So you've got that going for you.
