The SEC was perfect the way that it was before adding TAMU and Mizzou. That was a dumb expansion. Adding Texas would be even more dumb.

Personally I think our next targets need to be North Carolina and either Duke or Virginia.

However....

I say we also need to remove Mississippi State for being dead weight both athletically and academically.
Then kick out Missouri and Kentucky due to not actually being southern states.
Then we need to add Texas, Duke\Virginia (whichever dud not get added earlier), and either Florida State, Miami, Texas Tech, or Virginia Tech for the final spot.

Hell no on Texas. They had their chance to come over and were arrogant. TAMU took the chance to come over and are reaping the benefits. They are just afraid of what is happening.

I like A&M, been to a few games when I was stationed at Hood. Great having you guys in the SEC. University of Texas can go frick themselves they are never welcome I hope they get hit with the death penalty.

There is no way the SEC takes a team who does not own their first and second tier television rights for the next 12 years. Absolutely no way.

Which sites ? I can't find anything on Shaggy Bevo.

Texas is the only school from Texas that would bring in enough revenue to justify splitting it more ways.

If they entered the SEC it would have to be as an equal partner - so under those circumstances they would be ok to bring in. Are they a definitively better add than a NC or Virginia school? Maybe not, but they would be a good financial addition.

Texas isn't a good fit IMO. I'm not necessarily in favor of more expansion but if it happens I hope for UNC and one of the Virginia schools.

No way we ever have two schools from the state of Texas.

Texas is a big state... I don't know how your TV markets work... but it's possible UT could be lucrative since it's such a big state... However.... frick UT... don't want em.

The SEC has expanded too much already.Aggies,if you want expansion join the Mtn West or Conference-USA. No offense Mo,but you need to be in Big 10.I want LSU to play Georgia and Tennessee more.This conference is too big now.

My opinion is that A&M already served up Texas, and the sips bring more trouble than they are worth (A&M fan opinion). I think NC and VA are the eventual targets.


Texas will not go to the SEC, harder for them to win National Title. That's why I laugh when people think all these power houses want to join the SEC, if they do that it'll be harder to get into the 4 team playoff. Just stay in your easy conference, win your conference then you'll have a good chance to get into the playoffs.

Just because you read something on hornfans about how the SEC would ejaculate all over themselves to have Texas join it's ranks. Doesn't make it the voice of the general population. I hear more from sooner fans wishing they took the offer instead of Mizzou. Currently Texas fans are more interested in getting rid of Ol underperforming Mack attack.

DO NOT WANT TEXAS. I would prefer TCU over UTx. And that won't happen. They are the only team I want less than VA Tech
