This statement concisely sums up the past few years' activity:
quote:


SEC Network is available with U200 and above in U-verse TV markets in the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas


It's on U300 in the rest of the country. So any talk of adding FSU, Clemson etc in the future rather than a North Carolina or Virginia school is hereby confirmed to be frivolous...

UNC's impending death penalty may get them out of their ACC contract just in time for SEC expansion.

You heard it here first....

Moving into a new house the first of August and dropping DirecTV for Dish Network immediately... Comcast is over priced and unreliable here in Memphis so Dish is the best alternative.

Even if this were the case, which it is not, the ACC would still hold on to UNC, otherwise it would start the dominoes falling where other conferences could plunder the ACC. It's why they upped the exit penalty.

Those who grasped the expansion in 2012 have known this to be the case.

SEC is only going to add in NC or Virginia. Adding in Oklahoma isn't as valuable because of population. You also won't be able to get Oklahoma without Oklahoma State. The OK combo is far less valuable than even the least desirable combo of an NC school and a VA school.

If and when the SEC expands for the last time it will be on the East coast into new states.

Yup, it's fairly obvious.

Add a state that adds to SEC footprint and charge ~1.30 per TV set in that state.

Add a school in a state already in the SEC footprint...bring in 0 additional SECN revenue.

hmmmmm

It's entirely obvious.


Plus there are two traditional southern states that do not yet represent the SEC, can you guess who?





at which point we can fully expect the new 4x4 conference format to take hold, so now the only real fun in speculation becomes pick -4


we know one has to be

UGA
Tenn
Bama
Aubie


leaving

USC
UF
NC school
Va school


Ole Miss
MSU
LSU
Aggie


Vandy
UK
Arky
Mizzou


this still leaves open the available annual cross div rival game, so UF can still play UGA every year, Tenn can play Vandy, Aggie can play Arky, etc.


ok now let the "but,,, but.,,, that's NO FAIR" whining begin..

$30 million per SEC team says otherwise.
