Why the hell would the SEC expand?

The first expansion was driven by a need to get to twelve teams for a championship game.

The second expansion (which was a mistake IMO) was driven by cable numbers and creating the SEC network. Now that revenue model is crumbling, so that is no longer a valid reason.

I'm with you.

OP needs to add another school to his rumor though, if he wants it to gain traction

The only appealing expansion targets would be North Carolina and Texas. Both would bring the kind of $ along with them that would increase the per program revenue stream. Both of those are very unlikely to move.

Amen.

Neither school is really cut from the proper cloth.
