re: "Old school" SEC fans...rate the addition of A&M and Mizzou after two years.

I understand this rational if staying at 12 was an alternative, but it wasn't, for reasons already given. I also understand the traditionalist viewpoint on not wanting to add new members. Hell I'm a traditionalist myself, and honestly, our best fit is on the old Big 8, but in todays world of big money and tv markets, that conference would never make it.

With that being said, most of us understand why Mizzou and aTm seeked greener pastures and what they bring to the table. And from a logistic standpoint, both states border SEC states already. It just makes sense in the conference expansion era. Personally, Mizzou couldn't of landed in a better conference and we are damn proud and thankful we are here.
