re: SEC expansion to 16 teams

12 is better than 16

NC and Virginia would be amazing
Move Missouri to the west

Just send back all the money our presence put in your program’s pockets.

No problem. you certainly didnt add championships or stellar representation in OOC games.

Harry, one of your best. Just right on the teams.
Your friend Herman.

Ps, if you see Rohan tell him I said hi..

not sure when Monds junior year was but LSUs recently beat Texas, Oklahoma, Clemson, UCF, and Miami.

LSU beat 7 ranked teams in 2019, including the preseason top 4. Having to face ranked teams and beat them is important so not sure why youre pointing out your team doesnt hold up in big games.

i get it, adding A&M got a few more TVs in Texas to tune in to SEC games, but lets be clear, we didnt need you to recruit Texas better

Would rather move Mizzou to the West and add a NC and VA team.

LSU and Bama no, but a lot of teams that aren’t as blessed with football rich states, they do need to recruit well out of state, it costs money to recruit out of state, like Arizona prospects, Texas A&M and Texas has been able to get good players out of that state, Christian Kirk and Texas got a home run with their RB, can Arkansas go to states like that and pull them too? Arizona kids see more Texas schools on TV, it’s easier by default IMO

Now LSU is different, you guys have that state locked down and just need a handful of out of state guys, it maybe a waste of time for LSU to try and recruit west past Texas

I don't want it any tougher. The SEC West should add Prairie View and Central Arkansas.

I never understood Why Missouri and Texas A&M were added.

Why are Florida State and Miami not in SEC. can’t get much more southeast than they are.

Maybe it’s the southern education, but many of you seem incapable to understand what drove expansion last time and what will drive expansion next time. $$$$$$

With the addition of of Texas & Missouri, you 35 million people to your conference footprint. That equals TV sets. The conference doesn’t give a crap what Missouri or aTm do in athletics.

There are 3 programs that actually drag the conference revenue down: Vanderbilt, MS State, and Auburn. All place second fiddle to a more popular program in the state. None of these programs bring addition TV sets to the conference.

This is just a simple fact as long as the tradition cable model is around. And it is. Even with streaming, it follows a similar plan.
