Texas A&M is in the league for 12 years with no media days. Texas joins and it moves to Dallas in year 1

SECCG to follow suit?

Maybe if it keeps inching closer to college station the Ags will finally make one?

Oklahoma too. I'm sure that played a role. I think other things will start moving too. You can't expand the SEC footprint and expect things to stay the same.

Dallas is halfway betweeen Austin and Norman.

They could have done a media days halfway between College Station and Columbia in 2012 but it would have taken place in Little Rock, so A&M and Mizzou both said "thanks but no thanks".

If its in Frisco like I heard it will be, if any of you out of towners show up, you will really like the area, there's lot to do.

And it begins. The Texas takeover of the SEC.

And you all thought Mizzou and A&M were bad (and probably Arkansas and SC before that).

Frisco seems like the most likely landing spot. It's very nice but also very boring. Lots of nice hotels and restaurants, also a lot of boring chain stores (which is on brand for DFW). But also some big sports facilities with the Cowboys and Stars, plus the Roughriders park. All in all seems to make sense.

Thanks a lot Sankey….you carpetbagger! You have done so much to ruin the SEC…..can’t until Disney spins off woke ESPN and they cancel the tv contract because they can’t afford to pay.

No true SEC fan gives a crap about state of Texas or Oklahoma.

1 school in the area vs 3 schools in the area.

SEC is thinking ahead:

1. There will be so much anticipation next summer, to the new teams being a month or so away from playing in SEC. Its a no brainer to put the media days in that region and take advantage of all the extra press.

2. SEC is going into B12 territory and pissing in their Wheaties. After the cluster that was B12 media days last week and all the butt hurt from them - having the SEC media days right in the same metro is basically flipping a middle finger to B12. This is basically establishing it as SEC territory going forward. They are smart to do this.

3. Frisco is a nice area and good choice.

Plus, if it's in Frisco, we can make a game out of placing bets on which coach will get the pork chop at Perrys for lunch, and then look to see who is dozing off with meat sweats in the afternoon.

Nah, they won't want to associate the event with an NFL franchise.

My guess would be one of the bigger hotels in the Stonebriar area.
