B&N stores were losing money, not the same thing. MSU, Vandy, and Auburn make the SEC money.
It is like the same thing. The argument was about holding onto something b/c "you dance with you brung ya," basically.
MSU, Vandy and Auburn do make the SEC money, b/c they have fans in those states and the SECN gets to charge a higher subscription cost. The SECNetwork charges subscribers in the SEC state around $1.40 a month. Outstide the state, they charge around $0.25 a month.
If we lose 3 schools from states with SEC teams (Auburn, Vandy, MSU) and we add 3 new states (especially NC and VA who have much larger populations than those other 3 states) the SEC will make more money.

your logic is flawed. True, You would never add a team without adding a new state.
No conference would kick out a school as strong as Auburn who has recently won a NC, gets great TV ratings and is becoming a National brand. Big 6.
Now Vandy and MSU would be a realistic discussion. MSU brings very little to the conference and swapping Oklahoma or Okie State for them makes a lot of sense as both conferences gain a new state. Similarly swapping Vandy for say a Virginia or Kansas could help both conferences.
