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.

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
