They got alot of southern culture there and a huge diaspora of Appalachian and old Scotch-Irish admixture. The football team ain’t been worth a shite since Rich Rod was in his prime. Just y’all thoughts on West Va to the SEC

No. They picked the wrong side during the war of northern aggression.

Would have taken them over Mizzou, but not now. Their baseball team wasn’t bad though.

If the SEC did expand I think it would be NC and a VA school most likely.

This is the correct answer but it was the War for Southern Independence.

Some of these questions or ideas hurt my head. What does WVU do in any way, shape or form to improve the SEC. Absolutely NOTHING. They actually reduce the TV money on a per school basis.

I don't think you understand what realignment is about.

UNC, NC State, UVA, V Tech, Clemson, Florida State. Those are the realistic candidates. Problem with the NC/VA schools is they are all deeply connected, very hard to pick one off so you pretty much have to take all 4. That won't work. That's part of why Super Conferences are inevitable.

Nothing against WV, but they just do very little for existing teams in conference. Not going to raise media deals, small markets, below avg academics. They are Mizzou minus STL, KC, and AAU.
