How many SEC schools are members of other conferences, too?

Alabama is in C-USA for women's rowing.



And I think they suck.

Hands down Florida is #1

Bama, aTm, Arky, LSU, Georgia, Tennessee can only hope to be there one day

The lower half should give up and focus on what individual sports they are good at

Well, if there's any way, you certainly broached the subject in the correct place to find someone who will.

Considering most of the country cares the most about College Football and College Basketball. That's where the ratings are at, games on TV, etc. Best athletic Dept in the SEC is Florida! I'm sure most people outside the SEC would agree.

I would give the nod to UF, nut LSU Has a natty in each of the big 3; plus I think LSU Is the only school with 10+ SEC titles in the big 3. Also we had the best dynasty in NCAA history

The last 3 years both Florida and A&M have finished in the Top 10 in the Director's Cup. No other SEC school has placed at all in that time. UF has the strongest overall AD. A&M has a strong argument for #2, we currently are ranked in the Top 25 for every sport we participate in outside of Men's Basketball (though baseball is rebuilding this year as well and may take a hit).

In truth though the SEC is loaded with quality AD's, very few "one sport wonders" or just overall bad AD's.

Here's how I would rank them, taking into consideration every sport, men's and women's - historically (all-time)

1. Tennessee
2. Florida
3. Louisiana State
4. Arkansas
5. Georgia
6. Alabama
7. Kentucky
8. Ole Miss
9. Texas A&M
10.Auburn
11.South Carolina
12.Missouri
13.Miss.State
14.Vanderbilt

Although IMO there is not much difference between #s 7-12.
Also A&M and Mizzou compiled their history in other conferences. USC and Arky as well..
