Academics = Vanderbilt
CFB = Alabama
M CBB = Kentucky
W CBB = Tennessee

Everybody else has a way to go to catch up to any of them
MLB baseball has farm teams and will probably not catch up in value

Georgia's Athletic Dept in general has been terrible for years outside of football


36 National Championships and 174 SEC Championships.

I would imagine only Florida has more SEC championships and UF,Arky and LSU more NC's.

Vandy is the most valuable member of the conference.


Pretty sure they have the biggest endowment without a PUF
Pretty sure they have the best global rep

Asking about the most valuable members of an athletic conference and your first mention is a school known for academics... weird

So, in that context, how is Vandy relevant?
What have they brought to the table?

There's something to be said for that. But UGA has been completely irrelevant in the other 2 big 3 sports for going on 15+ years.

The UGA fear of LSU on here recently has been interesting

It’s a good question but I think you have to start by defining the criteria and define “value”

If it’s academics, you’re spot on… Vandy, Florida, Georgia and A&M lead.

If you’re talking hardware, it has to be Bama, Georgia, and Florida.

If the criteria is based on amount of money contributed to the SEC…. Look at the payouts before Missouri & TAMU arrived… and look at the payout after we arrived.

LSU has more hardware than both Florida and Georgia.

Not that facts matter in this troll topic.

Florida, UGA, and Texas bring in the most important markets. Alabama brings in the most eyeballs and prestige nationally. Past those 4, LSU, Auburn, aTm, Tennessee, and Oklahoma are highly marketable teams as long as they are winning.

South Carolina, Mizzou, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Ole Miss deliver some market share but otherwise have little national interest. MSU and Vandy are by far the least valuable with no market to deliver and no interest outside of their small fan bases.

You used 1990 as your starting point. During that time ;
Georgia
1 natty in baseball
1 natty in football

Vs

LSU
6 Nattys in baseball
3 Nattys in football

Are you really this dumb? You have proven by your logic that Georgia is below LSU and Bama

You're halfway correct.

LSU hasn't won a national championship in the less than two years that the current NIL rules have existed.

They did, however, win a national championship since the transfer portal was instituted.

When will you people realize no one cares about college baseball? It's advanced tee ball.
