re: Realignment? The talks are starting again

Do you think that this will start another domino effect or that it will just be a Big XII move (if they move at all)?

Are the supposed iron clad contractual agreements signed by a lot of conferences and schools post-2011 enough to stop more shifts?

The Big12 won't expand. The current targets don't increase the tv revenue enough to justify it. If they do anything they stop backloading their schedule and then schedule a CCG. Then from 2024-2026 when the Big12 and ACC GORs and the CFB playoffs contract expire there will another round of conference expansion that yields 4 super conferences or the playoffs expand to 8 teams or both. In any expansion situation the SEC needs to get a North Carolina and Virginia school and spit into pods with the 2 best teams playing in ATL for the SECCG or stay put at 14.
