It's a Rutgers move.

Markets don't matter anymore like they did 10 years ago during expansion. It's not "gonna get them into Florida."

Brands and TV ratings matter.
The SEC has 8-9 schools with bigger brands than FSU.
No one wants to dilute the payout.

some of y’all are so damn delusional

Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma, Florida, and LSU all have bigger brands or have cases to make but the rest not so much

You’re joking right? This past season only 4 SEC teams had higher ratings than FSU. Alabama, Georgia, Texas and Tennessee.

3-4 schools in the expanded SEC have a bigger brand. Take a guess. FSU is on par with UF, LSU, Auburn at minimum.

FSU is a really big brand capable of recruiting against anyone. And if FSU goes to the B10, UNC, Clemson, and possibly Miami follow. Do we really want the Big Ten being the dominant presence along the Atlantic Coast from Florida up to the Carolinas? Especially when the SEC has the chance to permanently lock down the Southern US forever? The South will always have the best recruits and we want them to never consider playing anywhere else. The B10 with a strong foothold in SEC country opens up our recruiting to deep pockets up north and in LA.
