I feel like your IQ is too low to comprehend how this could harm the league. Texas is the biggest Blue Blood in the history of football. In the most talent rich state. Only thing hurting them is the fact they play in the Big 12 (a league they destroyed). By joining the SEC, they will be able to overcome their previous greedy mistakes and prop their program up on the SEC’s hard earned prestige. You laugh now…. Texas will ruin the SEC…. You homers need to hear this - Florida doesn’t have the power to stop them. LSU doesn’t. UGA doesn’t. Bama doesn’t. Auburn doesn’t.


Oh. I realize what Texas COULD try to do. The problem is that the SEC is not the State of Texas. Texas's money would not really work here. Besides each member has a vote, I guess Texas could try and buy votes, but that would not work either. For all the assets Texas has, they really would have no power.

Now, for the record, I am not in favor of Texas coming to the SEC

They played in a two team conference for the last six years and finished no better than second.

They may have destroyed it, but certainly not on the football field. Don't blame it on recruiting. They had better Team Talent (24/7 composite) than OU for each of the last 6 years and significantly better talent than the rest of their conference. They had better talent than A&M and had similar results against the easiest P5 conference in college football.

OU did. TCU did. OSU did. Hell WVU held their own. They have done less with more than any team in the country with the possible exception of USC or Florida State. They may one day be an SEC power, but lets see if they can handle up on TCU before moving over.
