I didnt know Texas A&M fans accounted for any significant portion of the total revenue.
I dont think you know how this works...

Texas Population - 28 M
The rest of the SECW population - 15.5 M

Monetarily it did. Texas football is always rated the most valuable college sports team.
It happened to the Big East too. The teams that played football realized they were sharing too much with the basketball only schools. I don't want it to happen, but I don't see the big 6 plus a few others in the SEC sharing this much money forever.

Everyone pay your respects to daddy A&M for getting you all this money
Had UF not agreed to give up the arrangement with SunSports, who knows what would have happened with the SEC Network. Not sure what percentage of the $40 million is directly related to the SECN, but this was the case last year :

While almost everyone in the SEC benefits from the SEC Network, you know who doesn’t benefit? Florida. Why? Because Florida was generating more revenue from its third-tier media rights to “local” distributors than it is now with them bundled with other league teams. By agreeing to go along with the SEC Network, Florida agreed to take money out of its pocket and give it to its rivals. Texas wouldn’t do that and it ultimately may destroy the Big 12.

I do, look at the non-revenue sharing Pro League(baseball). You have the "Haves" and the "Have Nots", and the league suffers from disinterest until the playoffs. Half of the "Have Nots" seasons are over after Spring Training, so ratings suffer most of the year. College Football doesn't want there to be 20 teams worth watching every year.

UF's annual revenue has skyrocketed since the SEC network was created, by over 40 million

Neither do you apparently.
All of this newfound money comes from the SEC Network.
The SEC Network gets its money by charging cable subscribers every month for access. Subscribers in the same state as a SEC program get charged more than those outside the SEC (up to five times as much).
Because A&M is in the SEC, the SEC gets to charge the maximum rate for the huge Texas population. In fact A&M plus Mizzou added 50% to the SEC cable subscriber footprint that existed prior to expansion, so a full third of the SEC Network revenue is because of A&M and Mizzou.
You are welcome.

One of these days expansion will flip to contraction in every sport.
Except that all the schools being added are selected to increase the tv/money footprint.
W the exception of Vandy, all the schools in the SEC have the viewership and access to tv markets that make them worthwhile financially
Alabama for example can't leverage their dominance because their geographic base isn't big enough

It would have never gotten off the ground.
But in that case UF would have been demonized nationally for being greedy like Texas is today.

I still dont think you know how this works, revenue from Texas A&M fans does not out weigh the rest, plain and simple, but you should probably go a little more into you explanation and actually think about it on a national scale and in terms to A&M and get over yourself...

The revenue directly related to the SEC Network is a percentage of the distribution from the SEC. A year or two ago it was about $6.5 million per school. UF was making $10 million per year from Sun Sports and that contract was set to be renegotiated.
BTW, I'm not saying that there aren't benefits or that we shouldn't have done it. There is a decent chance our 3rd tier rights are now making as much or more with the SEC Network.

For sure, Foley knew it was important for the league. He wasn't going to hold the SEC hostage.

Someone needs to put Sankey's face over Carrey's here, and perhaps add some SEC ADs (or FB coaches - like we know who the ADs look like) faces on the bellhops too....

You're welcome SEC schools.

So with all your bolstering of A&M in here you still cant handle simple facts. Does it validate your real life to think so?

Leave it to an Aggie for not realizing that they don't contribute nearly as much as they think they do

You apparently have zero knowledge of the SEC expansion and why the per team amount of revenue has increased so dramatically since the expansion. it has nothing to do with we're "pulling in" more money than the rest of the conference.
You keep using the word simple to explain your viewpoint, but as covered in my last post, that much is already obvious to the rest of the board.

I know quite enough about it.
However you must have zero knowledge of simple math

Again, your simple brain can't handle the simple math. I am sorry your ego is hurt by all these simple concepts and the fact that A&M doesnt really make the world go round
