And they are NOTHING compared to a GOR. The Big 12 GOR (aka the value of what any team would have to pay to leave) is over $200 million per team at this point. Exit fees fell out at the major roadblock years ago, GORs are the new thing. Hence my comments about your low realignment IQ.

...tell me more about how Vandy being private helps the SEC keep information confidential.

Public schools have to follow the FOIA, and therefore a conference made of only public schools would have to work in public thanks to FOIA requests. With a single private school in the mix FOIA doesn't apply and everything can be kept in secret.

If you knew more about realignment than my dog you would know that.

SECvsSEC games earn more $ than SECvsFCS games, again, this is about $.

I am sure this notion is based on some erroneous assumption that ratings for the biggest games or some such shite drive the revenue for the SEC.

Actually the big money is forcing the SEC to play OTHER Power 5 teams OOC. Nine games cuts the same pie into more pieces, Power 5 OOC grows the pie by giving the SEC Network more content.

u mad, bro?

Yes, but not because the reason you think I am mad. I am mad because I fooled myself into thinking that MAYBE, just fricking maybe, the Realignment IQ on the Rant was high enough that we would never again have to rehash the fricking ABCs of the topic.

But here we are and your thread is dumping realignment retardation all over the place. It pisses me off that I have to clean up after you.
