I said this just yesterday, it would benefit the BIG WTF Conference to make Tulane a member. That allows Tulane to raise it's national profile then Tulane could potentially start challenging LSU for some of those in state recruits. In addition it allows the Big 12-4+2 to expand their television market and establish a footprint in SEC territory.

Given the lack of fan base for Tulane, I'm not sure it would have much impact. A large part of Tulane's student body and alumni aren't from Louisiana, and they don't appear to care much for football. Years ago there was a stronger local fan base. That has dissipated and might be very difficult to rebuild. LSU will still be king and interest in the SEC will dominate the local market. Tulane might be able to recapture some local support from the business community, but it would be an uphill battle to seriously impact LSU's dominant position.

I want Tulane back in the SEC. Now, more than ever, we need an annual Green Wave vs Crimson Tide game. Why this is a matter of urgency, I'm not at liberty to say at this juncture, but you can trust me on that point.

I would want this too if I were an A&M fan/alum. LSU just doesnt have instate rivals for recruiting like Texas, Alabama, Florida or Georgia
