Tennessee definitely has a foothold in Memphis
Not even remotely close as much as Ole Miss does though.
Percentage wise, Memphis is divided up like this.
Ole Miss-65%
Memphis-15%
Tennessee-10%
MSU-5%
Arky-5%

OM is almost as bad a Vandy in terms of athletics.
Yeah we're not.

Good thing they have that stellar academic reputation to fall back on.
OM has the image thing going for it. Old South, Southern belles, ice water parties, casual racism, yadda yadda. They're really a better fit for the SEC. Nothing against y'all, Bulldogs. It's just inarguable that Ole Miss just has more of an aura of "tradition" than you do.

vandy is a better basketball and baseball school

Ole Miss brings the Memphis TV market.
definitely... all 26 are big screens, half were stolen, half are in the first half of their rent to own cycle.
SEC could maybe survive without it??

You must be one of those intellectual LSU fans.

I will agree Memphis is a bit of a melting pot when it comes to football, but for basketball it is overwhelmingly for the Memphis Tigers.

I stuck up for y'all is what I did there. Would you rather get kicked out of the SEC after the all-important and totally-binding SEC Rant poll makes its final decision?

it would survive without it, (Memphis proper), I assure you..

Neither MS school will ever be kicked out of the SEC. No one would vote for it. Why? Because you'd be creating an imminent powerhouse at whichever MS team remained. You would create a situation where football championships could very realistically be won in your smallest market. Anyone with foresight could see that logical progression and would never go for it.
As is, the MS schools divide the very good and underrated talent in MS roughly equally -- and it keeps us both good but never great. If you allow all of that talent to consistently go to one school, you have created a situation not much different than LSU enjoys in Louisiana -- with PLENTY of in-state talent to field one legit competitor consistently.

It's a sad day when we cannot have legitimate good natured conversations on a sports message board.

Memphis State has more alumni in Memphis than all SEC teams combined. So I'm going to guess you're wrong.
1. Memphis State
2. Ole Miss
2a. Tenner
...the rest
